:) saw her pic on FB - isn't she gorgeous!!

First- a vet check for an infection in her bladder ....then a decent trainer (NOT a fancy named franchise) to help you all :)

raw mince is great! :) For infrequent dosings - TABLETs are crushed if it's OK to do so ..and sprinkled on one quarter of a peanut butter sandwich ;) Goes down SO fast :)

A pretty day today .

dogs don't 'cry 'with tears.

..and an hour long walk is perhaps a bit much for a young pup - those little joints are still forming ... perhaps 15 - 20 mins twice a day , and about 3, 5 minute obedience sessions? training the basics- and some tricks will give him other things to think about ;) Also provide one of his meals each day in some sort of food dispensing toy ..or put his kibble for that meal into a soft drink bottle minus lid and little ring ..and leave him to figure it out! What's he like at puppy school?

sacred bamboo! that's it :)

fishbone fern, sparaxis?, japanese bamboo?violets, and yes, possibly may bush .We have all of the above, and have never seen any reaction from the dogs .Bear in mind that ANYTHING can cause a reaction - soaps/carpet cleaner/fabric softener..... :)

Dear Stan .... :) :)

So much cuteness to come :) ...

Welcome :) Desexing Brash may help with some of his hormone -fuelled behaviours . TRAINING will help everything enormously, and I suggest you find a nearby dog training club and go there !! They will advise you on training equipment , and help you manage the dog with skills, not just physical restraint :)

Glad you have puppies and that the mum is ok :)

chicken carcasses ... turkey necks yes, carrots & apples as well :) Deer Antlers Bully sticks

Oh, micmac - dear old soul :) xxxxx

My dog Don (crossbreed) was all black - then at around ..6 mths or older- his coat sprouted many many white hairs ,,and a white/grey muzzle :) What colour is the skin around where the white hairs are on your pup?

there are all sorts of mismarks HERE :) genetics ..... hard to understand , and often surprising.

:) I doubt very much that a collar/disease caused this - it just looks like a 'mismark' , which can happen . some have a white chest spot, or white hairs on their feet , or tails ... the placing/shape of that white is a bit like the ruff on a border collie .
