Are kittens or puppies better?
You can get a lot of opinions on this, but you are the only one who can answer this. Kittens and puppies can both be playful, rambunctious, make a mess of the house, destroy clothing and furniture and in general turn your life upside down. They are also both cute, fluffy, endearing and affectionate.
However, a kitten will grow up to be a cat while a puppy will grow up to be a dog. Cats can typically be left alone for longer than dogs, since they don't need to be let outside to use the bathroom. Dogs need more physical attention, since you will need to walk them and take them outside to use the restroom.
Both cats and dogs need human attention, good quality food and security in their environment. The question is, would you rather wake up early before work to take the dog for a walk or to clean the litter box?

What color puppies will a yellow labe have?
The puppies would be labs (like the mom and dad) ,but the color or colors would depend entirely on which color genes they received from each parent.
The black color is dominant; the possibilities for a black puppy are EEBB, EEBb,EeBB, or EeBb. The possibilities for a yellow puppy are eeBB, eeBb, or eebb. Both EEbb and Eebb would produce a chocolate lab. So, to be yellow, the puppy must receive the 'e' gene from both parents, and to be chocolate, the puppy must have received the 'b' gene from both parents--any other combination will produce a black puppy.
It should be noted that the combination of eebb will always produce a dog that is yellow, but that has chocolate pigmentation around its eye rims, and on its nose. This is not currently an 'accepted' color for registration with the AKC.

How old should a female American bulldog be to breed?

If you consider it a good job then yes... Think about this: Dog breeding is the practice of mating selected specimens with the intent to maintain or produce specific qualities and characteristics. Very interesting huh? Dogs reproduce without human interference, so their offsprings' characteristics are determined by natural selection. Domestic dogs may be intentionally bred by their owners. [1] A person who intentionally mates dogs to produce puppies is referred to as dog breeder. Breeding relies on the science of genetics, so the breeder with a knowledge of canine genetics, health, and the intended use for the dogs attempts to breed suitable dogs. But remember, it's your choice. ;)
Yes, of course. Any breed of dogs can have offspring.
Is it normal for German shepherd puppies to have worms?
yes they are I think you take them in about 3 to 4 weeks of age for the first deworming call vet to make sure.
Puppies are never born with worms. But if their mother has worms they acquire the worms from her within a few days after birth.
I think so, ticks can carry Lyme disease, rocky mountain spotted fever, and a few other real nasty things but I don't know how this would affect a dog but if you remove the tick, which should only be done with tweezers by grasping the head of the tick and nothing else, put it in a plastic bag with the date of removal then store it in a freezer until you can take it to the vet or doctor to verify if the tick is infected then decide the treatment for the animal. These are the procedures for people as well only don't take them to a vet.

This is possible, depending upon what the shot was. If it was a vaccination, the puppy is probably not vomiting from the shot itself, although I would keep an eye on the puppy during and after the next round of vaccinations.
