Not all of them, and with some dogs, getting wet and cold is not good for their health

Smoke, snoozing in the early morning sun Is Don, Was ROBBED .! Kammi -10 minutes into chain training Such a sensible girl

Oh, T - crying with you here Your darling special girl ..... So very sorry

She is now learning to pee inside- and in her crate . Not ideal .

I wondered that as well

My 'nanny dog' was a farm bred ACD ...he would guard me from even my grandparents , and as I grew, I could do anything to him - he never minded . He saved me from a snake twice...I remember playing with him, and doing things I would cringe at if I saw a kid doing. Mum told him to look after me, and he did .

I figured it was the middle of the night ...everyone would be sleeping ? maybe not - maybe they were doing something with the baby .... you're right...it may not have been that scenario.

Thinking..... how did dog have free access to baby during the night ? That in itself is asking for accidents to happen . Babies smell/they make odd noises to capture a dog's interest - they wriggle .... *sigh* Poor little mite . the only lesson here is not to allow dogs access to unsupervised babies.

LOVE this story LINK excerpt

Just awful Those parents will be in three kinds of hell, and I really feel for the first responders in this one . edit : I agree with SteveK9Pro.

This so sad and mad SO much money!!!!! For an unknown. Eek.

I agree- that is just asking for a fear-induced snap!

An abscess and that Kennel Cough ...glad that's all behind him! he's done really well .

Can you even just do ONE ? even if it takes a month...they'll all get done in time to do them again ..... Perhaps there is a dog acupuncurist vet somewhere who may be able to help ? Poor old lad ....:(

I like frenchies with faces....nearly owned one several decades ago.......

"Cobby" means that the dog is thickset/short bodied ..looks 'chunky' Your boy looks fine/longer legged .

that is WAY too much poo! Dogs should be absorbing their food ..not eating food that ends up as waste

Conformation is the structure and appearance of a dog- every breed has its own desired conformation dachshunds for example have long backs . A shorter backed, longer legged dachshund would have poor conformation .

To me he looks lovely - but I like lean dogs . I agree with the others - 4 poos a day means that something is going thru him - most likely the kibble . Feed fattier bits of meat, and less kibble, and see how you go

they are looking fantastic - but it's Sapphos' eyes that get me .... *sigh* Wonderful to see them stretched out ..those special muscles doing their 'thing'. Thanks for the update!

safe from the heating we use indoors? fires, etc ?

just good at getting attention ;) Even from The Boss! Who lets Clive jump up on him while he's eating breakfast!!!!!

Kamela/kammi with floppy ears Kammi @ 4 mths with prick ears Clive wrapped up warm ...
