  1. It's another world .... thank you for sharing these . Lots on which to ponder ....
  2. That sounds a bit too full-on to me . I think you are wise in taking pup out ..and not doing it again . There's socialisation , and there's free-for-all . 6 dogs in a small area like that .... anything could happen .
  3. Ah... sorry, juice forgot to whom I was talking fair enough . if dog is not a chewer ... a hard flat plastic ice brick thingy or 2 would probably work for that sort of thing
  4. if metal is too hot to touch in the car ..then maybe it's too hot to take dog anyway? The bottom of the crate will need to be well insulated ...otherwise it's a baking tray you really need to have a foil- based bit against the crate bottom ..to reflect heat back ..NOT absorb it like any ordinary material will then , I suggest something either really thick and solid .. or a 'platform' to allow for some sir movement ..and space away from that heated floor. In our dog kennels, we use plastic bread crates etc ;) with bedding on top . They stay dry as well. A 2 L bottle of frozen water or two in the crate? Even the coolmats would quickly absorb heat from the crate , as well as that from a dog ..and get really warm fast . refrigerating them first helps a bit . For actual 'bedding' perhaps try layers of shadecloth ;) fold and fold until there are at least 6 layers .The amount of air in this helps keep things a bit cooler ...
  5. Oh gosh - it would break my heart to rehome a 'senior' citizen ...unless it was someone they knew and loved going to visit I would be constantly wondering and worrying about what was happening /how they were ... Thinking of you,....
  6. large wings - semi frozen are my choice ... I don't use necks for anyone nowdays . You could also use a 1/2 chicken frame No risk og gulping there.
  7. Fennec foxes are very appealing looking critters
  8. there will be photos !! my favourite day of the year
  9. I'll be seeing him/them in around 7 weeks !! :D
  10. My suggestion is to purchase a couple off the Conni human Incontinence products - the maxi bed pads  (blue) They hold an enormous volume of water ..and are long lasting . I have a couple here I used both under bowls, and for an incontinent older dog ..pads are around 6 yrs old!! The pet pads are good ..but I feel these are better for large volumes .
  11. Oh that is so sad ... heartbreaking and upsetting for everyone .
  12. Our sheep were shorn yesterday ... this composition caught my eye ...
  13. Well, yes - and it solves the new Winter bed question ;)
  14. here's hoping Kluet finds a mate soon ... her death will have left such a big hole Your photos, as usual are a wonderful tribute
  15. poor girl... At last she is free from the expectations of producing a child ... I hope Kluet gets lots of help and company ....
  16. LOL... couldn't find Miss M this morning ... In her defence - it IS her bedding in the laundry basket ;)
  17. Why are there asian subtitles?????
