Maybe something he is putting out. Dogs rely so much on instinct. Have you been walking with him and Roxy? Could it be the "snuffling" LOL?? Sort of serious question.
-
I don't have any solutions for you, but I am sure a qualified person would be able to pick up the signs that Roxy is sending out. In my small pack, I have had a couple of dogs who desperately wanted to play, but were absolutely ignored and if they pushed the point were snapped at. It makes me sad. Sometimes dogs choose another dog to play with and that dog is it and no matter what enticements in terms of wagging, bowing, face licking, etc, another dog offers, they don't get a look in. I guess it is like some people. Some have "it" others don't. Hopefully someone will be able to give you some pointers because I do understand how painful it can be to know that your dog's happiness is not complete.

What is wrong with people . The poor dog was injured in their care. I just don't get it. -
Too true and I was one of those people who thought my dogs (Maltese and a long time ago) looked great with regular brushing. First trip to the groomer and they had to be completely shaved their coats were so matted next to the skin. I still have the photographs When I worked and had the money, my dogs were groomed fortnightly.

I don't want to turn this into a Shar Pei discussion :D but that is a bit sad, really corvus. Maybe look into the Shar Pei thread in Breeds? I spent a bit of time being involved in Shar Pei Rescue a few years back. I had Shar Peis visiting my house, baby sat puppies and adults, and loved each and everyone of them. The only caveat I would offer is that, as with any breed, there can be rogues, and you need VERY deep pockets

Has Anyone Heard Of Let Me Go In Sa?
Loving my Oldies replied to cornell's topic in General Dog Discussion
I have always been of the understanding that most vets will come to your house. Naturally you will pay accordingly, but that is how it should be. -
Agree, Minimax, we all react differently. This has obviously upset Mantis and I think we need to understand that and treat her concerns with respect and care.
-
I have to agree with this, but also think Pav Lova is being pretty insensitive. It is bad enough being followed around the streets being harassed by someone (as I was some years ago because I made his dogs bark by walking past his house!!!), but this man lives in the same unit block as Mantis. Knowing that someone like this man is close by is enough to stress someone out, let alone knowing that if he sees you, he will be horrible to you. I agree that Mantis should just go out and ignore him. HOWEVER, that is easy to say. Not so easily done.
-
I am, but that means my girl is a prisoner & can't go for walks, it's unfair on her. But why can't you go out,Mantis? Do you think he waits for you and then harasses you, or are you not going out through fear of bumping into him? A most awful situation to be in, but if you are worried about his harassment claim, forget it. He doesn't have a leg to stand on. If you go out and he approaches you again saying he is suing you just tell him you are taking steps to counter sue. Do you have someone you could make arrangements with to have company on your walks?
-
Oh, THANK YOU Gosh they're little cuties - well not so little at 16 kgs. I don't know how you get anything done with those two around.

She is a beauty, Shmoo. Hope a new carer comes along soon, or better still, a new home. -

Oh, where is DeShonko kennels :laugh:. Puppies from Gambit and alibi's TV (Tard Version). A fortune in the making!!! -
whether this is the case or not, it is totally disgusting. It is indeed disgusting. Same happened to a friend when her dog died of heatstroke from mismanagement at a boarding kennel. They think they will avoid liability somehow by not admitting anything. Doesn't really help much from a legal point of view. But shows them up as the arseholes they are. Same attitude is being adopted in the thread about dog being bitten at kennels. The dogs owners are going through so much grief, yet the businesses can't even extend the hand of sympathy.
