My dog is losing a lot of weight, need help please!?
My 4 year old male Rhodesian Ridgeback has been losing weight. His ribs and hips bones are visible. He eats 4 cups of food a day but isn't gaining weight. I took him to the vet and he had blood work done, was tested for valley fever, and an enzyme test, all of which came back normal. He's SUPER active, runs and plays all day, sleeps good, no diarrhea, no vomiting. We moved 2 months ago, so he may be stressed.
I don't know what else I can do. Any suggestions? Anyone else experience this? Thanks!
47 AnswersDogs1 decade agoWhat do the different colors around top answerers mean?
For example, if you go to the Diseases and Conditions page under the Health section, on the top of the page it shows I am the top answerer in the Diseases and Conditions section. I have a purple colored border around my avatar sometimes and sometimes it's a blue color.
Do these colors mean anything? They just started appearing recently. Thanks!
2 AnswersYahoo Answers1 decade agoHas anyone ever been to a neurologist for headaches?

13 AnswersOther - Diseases1 decade agoWhich is cheaper to run in the summer, fans or the AC?
I live in Arizona where it can get to over 110 degrees F in the summer. AC is basically a must have. Bills can get to be over $300 a month easily for using the AC.
So, is it cheaper to run ceiling fans or does it use about the same amount of electricity as the AC. I would think the AC would cost more.
Which is cheaper and why? Thanks!
8 AnswersMaintenance & Repairs1 decade agoHow long does a collection stay on a persons credit report?
My fiance and I got in a little disagreement a little while ago about how long collections stay on a credit report.
He says that after 7 years they will be removed from a persons credit report - whether they are paid or not.
I disagree with that. Why would collection agencies just "give up" trying to collect money from a person and take it off a persons credit report. It doesn't make sense to me. If collection agencies just stopped trying to collect from a person after 7 years wouldn't a lot of people not pay their bills because it will just go away after 7 years?
Can someone clarify this for me? Thanks!
10 AnswersCredit1 decade agoWhat happened? I used to be the top "Diseases & Conditions" and "STDs" answerer and now I'm not on there?
I used to be the number 1 "Diseases & Conditions" and "STDs" top answerer and now I am removed. I have been the number 1 answerer for over a year and now I'm not even in the top 10.
This happened a few weeks ago with another top answerer. In fact, she was the number 1 top answerer for the Health section and now she's not even in the top 10.
What's going on? Why have I been removed? Has this happened to anyone else?

Right now I have size 10 gauges in my ears. I would like to go bigger but, later down the road when I want to take them out I would like them to heal and look normal, instead of having huge holes in my ears. How much bigger can I go before my ears have permanent holes in them?

3 AnswersYahoo Answers1 decade agoMy 2 year old ear piercings never healed right, what can I do?
I got two piercings in my upper ear cartilage about two years ago and they have never healed right. They aren't too painful, but everyday it seems like I have to clean them, because there is usually some yellow crusty stuff and sometimes even a little dried blood. It's hard for me to sleep on them and when I do, they hurt even more.
How can I get them to heal? Any tips or tricks? Thanks!
5 AnswersOther - Health2 decades agoWhat is this sticky yellow stuff?
When my fiance and I have sex, about half way through we both notice we get this sort of clumpy yellow sticky substance on us. It also gets on the sheets, which causes sort of a sandy feeling, like there is sand in the bed.
Could this be caused by me, or my boyfriend, or both of us? What is it? Has this happened to anyone else before? I do plan on seeing my OBGYN and asking her, but I'm not scheduled for a few more months.
My fiance and I have discussed it with each other and this has never happened to him or me before with previous sex partners.
Please help! Serious answers please!

Sometimes I see a question that is extremely offensive and it will have like 10 or so answers that say "Reported" or "You've just been reported". If the persons question gets deleted, do the people who answered it also lose their points for answering? (I hope I'm making sense!)
