This question was asked:

Can I use human medicine on dogs?

I think this is a great question, as it is one of those questions that many people will google. I thought we might brain storm; what other questions like this could we ask?

    As long as no one comes along and posts "Sure, I give my pet all kinds of human medications and it's worked out fine so far!" and gets a bunch of upvotes from people who also didn't have a problem yet. – Wooble Oct 10 '13 at 12:12

    This is why I voted up the declawing question. It has good answers on why it shouldn't be done and we'll hopefully get a ton of traffic from it (because people do want to declaw their cats), some of which will be from people that we'll convince not to do it. – ThomasH Oct 12 '13 at 10:16

I think behavioral questions are usually very valuable/useful things to refer to (it's definitely the topic I Google the most).

Aside from that, medical questions/advice are again both great to refer to and would gain traffic on the site, as most people would Google them anyway (especially considering a Vet bill being very expensive these days, it's easier and cheaper to seek semi-professional help first).

Classic benchmark question are most probably on behavior or health issue like we already have some -

How to manage hair shedding in dogs?

Why is my dog eating poop?

So the common behavior problems and health issues appears to me the benchmark questions and we are going to get lots of them sooner or later.
