This very much depends on the gender, and social situation. Were these rats living together? If not, there is a high chance of the advantaged rat attacking, as this is highly likely to happen regardless of whether or not that rat is injured. Two Male rats are far more aggressive towards each other if they have never met, as both are fighting to be the dominant . Two females may fight too, regardless if one or the other is injured. Females tend to be more active and jumpy, while males tend to be lazier, but more aggressive.

Yes. Rat terriers make excellent mothers. They are very protective and would never let anything happen to their babies. They are also very good about making sure that every puppy eats and drinks enough to stay healthy.

Umm... depending on how you train your dog has a BIG impact on weather it can guard chickens or not. We taught mine to hunt or kill small animals such as chickens so my dog couldn't possible guard chicken without eating them. But if you train your dog to guard chickens he could guard them but there is a small possibility that it may eat the chickens since that is what it was initially bred for.

Rat terriers are special because they are not prissy or snippy. They are very adaptable dogs, and they love to play, plus, they don't hold grudges against humans who have harmed them in the past. I have a Rat terrier named Copper, and he is the best dog in the world. Although Rat terriers may look cute and little, you should consider the fact that they have extremely powerful jaws and sharp teeth. Once I gave Copper (my dog) a chew bone that was meant for giant labradors and boxer dogs, and he literally ripped it to shreds! But I think you should seriously consider a rat terrier, because they are inexpensive, adorable, playful, and loving.

We used to live on a farm and have a atv that we drove around hours at a time. My jack russel was always running full pelt beside/in front of the vehicle. He never stopped until afternoon when he couldnt even hold his head up. I always used to think he ran and ran for the fact that he didn't want to miss out on anything but geeze do they loooove running

Domestic ferrets have many forms of verbal communication. A soft clucking noise, referred to as "dooking",when playing or an expression of excitement. They will 'screech' as a sign of terror, pain, or anger. They will 'bark' if they are very excited. Finally, a ferret will 'hiss' if it is annoyed or very angry at another ferret or animal. Bottle brush tail - their tail will be up and hair bristled out - either excited or scared. The "weasel war dance" or "dance of joy" - the ferret will hop up and down and side to side in playing. The vocal sounds of a ferret are various

* The most common is a "Dook" (a clucking or chattering noise), usually when made when playing and is happy or excited, some ferrets or more vocal than others

* Screaming - a reaction to extreme pain or fear. In some cases, it may be anger as well. Investigate what caused your ferret to scream immediately - he may be injured

* Barking - when frightened or excited * Hissing - is a warning - depending on what they are doing - either upset, annoyed or agitated, in conflict, or fear to another ferret, animal or human. Some ferrets hiss regularly, it's just their way of talking * Squeaking, screeching - when playing, when jumping on another ferret, in some cases the ferret making the sound is upset with the other ferret. * Whining or Whimpering - when in discomfort, pain, or frightened, this is not a normal noise, and you need to investigate if heard. Continued whimpering in pain, or noises while going to the bathroom, take to the veterinarian immediately, as this could indicate a blockage. When they are happy or excited they may "dook", a soft clucking noise, commonly referred to as dooking

On the one hand Staffies are very good dogs with people, and especially children, and on the whole they are not aggressive towards people, which would make them good for inexperienced dog owners. But they can be stubborn and they do need discipline from the beginning and a lot of attention and training, so in that regards they may not be the best dog for inexperienced dog owners. Except if the owners take them to training from puppyhood.

You can stuff a pillow with all the hair that comes off a Rat. They shed throughout the year. I have two, one will a gorgeous, full coat and the other a piebald cow-marked. The full-coated one is responsible for every surface in my home being covered in dog hair. The piebald one is almost as bad, but her hairs are so short that they are not a problem. My wool coats, my sofas, my beds. Furniture that has to be dusted every other day to not show hair. I have a large dust mop that picks up enough hair to knit a sweater every couple of days. I have hair catchers in the drains, a Dyson vacuum that earns its keep, and a dryer lint screen that looks like I put the dog in the dryer every time I clean it. In short, yes, Rats shed mercilessly.
