Awwww.. Little Whippy Needing A Home
Loving my Oldies replied to persephone's topic in Dog Rescue (General Rescue Discussion)
The name China comes from rhyming slang: Mate = China Plate = China. I like to stress that even the tiniest of dogs is first of all a dog; even the tiniest of dogs will, generally speaking, love gnawing on a large meaty bone, etc etc etc. Off to take a closer look at Horse LOL. -
Despite having a few names in the back of my head for dogs of the future, I generally find that a name pops into my head when I see the dog. When all my existing dogs have crossed the bridge, I'll probably be too old, but I see myself tottering around the neighbourhood with a couple of equally doddery Greyhounds called Flash and Racer LOL.

We now have stocked up on Chunkers and N/gift semi moist. Myrtie is managing and loving it. I cut the Chunkers in half and feed that and NG about 30/70. I still give the others their raw, but mix in some Chunkers and NG. LOL, their meals have never been eaten so quickly, or prepared so quickly. So far? -
Totally spot on, Mita. He looks a beautiful boy with a lovely nature. Smart too :laugh: :laugh:

Mentoring Program Tackles High Veterinarian Suicide Rate

He sounds amazing, Kirislin, and probably the sort of person you need to keep an eye on, because he is dealing with everyone else's pain and neglecting his own. Perhaps. Big assumption on my part, but . . . -
Even the tiniest corns can be excruciating. Poor Benny. So glad he has the best mum, now
-
Oh, thank you. Will have a look.

I'm happy with the output seen to date, Donatella. :laugh: -
Kenya's Biggest Elephant Dead To Poachers
Loving my Oldies replied to tdierikx's topic in In The News
No way can I open the link either. Total barbarians. And I agree, Kirislin. What hope is there for this world. So much horror being perpetrated with such ease. -
Something I was totally unaware of, but the suicide rate in veterinarians is very high http://media.murdoch.edu.au/venerated-vet-receives-order-of-australia

When I was waiting for my puppies to be born a long time ago (Maltese), I had a dream wherein I'd adopted five little puppies and they were all this dirty champagne colour

OMG, QM! How really exciting. How did you feel when you woke up. Were you happy? Excited?
-
or the Arctic ..sorry ..had to .. ;) I agree with you DD ... It looks wrong .... Glad the dog doesn't realise . Ha ha ha .... I am always checking for auto correct . I fact I just had to change "slaw" back to "always". LOL. Surely the dog would have been uncomfortable though?

Did is a stunner . . But that poor dog in the blue skin tight outfit. What are the owners thinking of. We don't exactly live in the article.

I know all about doggies gumming. I once rescued then adopted a little dog who needed all his teeth removed. The op was in the morning and he was happily gumming chicken necks in the back yard that evening. I am now stocked up on Clunkers and Nature's Gift Semi-moist. All the dogs have had samples, quickest meal ever prepared and ever eaten Myrtie didn't miss a beat. Now to see what comes out the other end LOL. -
Exactly A dog is a dog no matter what the size :laugh:

Don't forget your bling, you GC Bimbo you.

You should be totally ashamed, Donatella. You are letting all the Bimbos down. And WHERE IS YIU BABY'S DIAMENTE COLLAR. :whip:

What a charmer. I predict a long and illustrious tenure on DOL.

LOL, Persephone. (I am awaiting my DVD from Arthritis Victoria "Move it or Lose It". I don't have arthritis; I just need to do some exercise.) K, I've bought those a couple of times in the past thinking I was giving the dogs a treat, but they weren't well received. I'll have a look again. WSM . Poor you. At least you know who is the culprit. The first thing I noticed as I sat on the edge of the bed trying to wake up was a great big yellow slimy sick on the floor. No idea who did it as everyone is normal so hopefully just old tummies feeling a bit off and nothing to be extra concerned about. -

to little balls of food rolled in ground kibble and parmesan. But let's face it, it would have been pretty delicious doggy food. Joking aside, Myrtie didn't seem to have any trouble picking it up. I guess they fact that it was drier and she was more able to get a grip on it. She wolfed it down and was looking for more. Hope there are some interesting things on teev to while away the hours spent rolling little balls of food. :laugh: :laugh: Oh, raising the bowl didn't seem to make any difference. She still picked out some food, dropped it on the floor and they ate it :laugh: :laugh: Now to watch for what comes out of the other end. I will also look at the brands and other foods that have been suggested here. Thanks everyone. -

There is nothing wrong with her appetite ; she is just having difficulty getting the food into her mouth and keeping it there. I was thinking of Parmesan, Brandiandwe. I have the ground up kibble and I'll throw in a bit of parmesan and then roll her raw into little balls. It already takes me ages to feed the tribe, what's a bit longer. LOL. Forgot to add: I have the brick ready to stand her bowl on. :laugh: :laugh: -
It has been a long time since I've had puppies, but I remember the hardest part was having to go to work and leave them. They were the most adorable little Maltese, they came from their breeders on the same day so they could keep each other company. I took a couple of weeks off work to settle them in and it was just awful eventually having to leave them at home.

I'd just finished replying to your post, walked into the kitchen, was cleaning up Myrtie's eyes when I heard a blurgh blurgh and there was Tamar throwing up on the kitchen mat. I think "challenges" needs to be heavily underscored -

I "decant" my kibble into an airtight container, WhiteSM, so I can't check, but as I generally do check that anything like that I buy is for seniors, I think it would have been. But good to have a reminder.
