  1. Not for macros ..still use the old point&shoot for them thankyou - it did look pretty.
  2. He does need to learn ..and you need to learn how to manage /teach him Please contact a good professional person and have them visit you and work with you on this. With little kids around... there is no margin for error. I suggest you contact Erny, Cosmolo, or Nekhbet all DOL members and professional who will be able to help you . Best of luck with it all....
  3. Glad she is on the improve ..and also glad that now your dogs have elbows and wrists , after all these years of just having knees ;)
  4. have you tried THIS THREAD, here on D O L ?
  5. Frozen is fine working a bit to poo is a good thing .. it helps squeeze out those anal glands ;) Constipation is NOT a good thing. ..and it's a balancing act to get it 'just right' Maybe just give him one or two as well as his kibble ...three when he's a bit older....
  6. Hi . not good. What training did/does this dog have? Does he normally have free run of the house? is he generally a well behaved and obedient dog? has he been taught to toilet on command? Does he do this in front of you?
  7. That's a lovely tribute R I P Gizmo.
  8. Glad it's safe , but Sorry , what about quarantine ?
  9. If it's happening regularly .. def. get it checked out . Perhaps video it for a chiro/vet to see ;)
  10. Looks like a bump on the noggin , from those photos .. poor girl.
  11. I wouldn't - a maiden at that age .... too many risks .
  12. ...and you may have to train her to toilet on a long leash etc. Some dogs don't /won't at first. I suggest a long length of the plastic coated cable you can buy at mitre 10 type shops .. it is very light - almost unbreakable ..and if you get someone strong and knot- smart to attach a swivel snap hook to each end ..you have a very useful piece of equipment I use a couple of these setups ... I can clip one end to a belt/rope around my middle , too
  13. Exactly! Which is why the OP may need to use physical control/restraint ... so puppy is not able to make mistakes/learn bad habits
  14. That's what happens here - lanholders, power, government , other folks... the locks look very intimidating!
  15. toy dog - yes... a lot of folks think it's funny or cute
  16. Hmm where did my post go? yes, I do think the pup should be either under physical control, or away from these kids ;) It will do two things. Save him from making mistakes, and being branded as a naughty dog ..and help teh kids see what things can be done. You might also want to do some activities found in this little ebook .. who knows, Th e kids may then educate their Dad ? LINK
  17. I think, if you are having kids over who are not as dog savvy as yours - yes, Roy should be kept away.. or be with them on leash, with you. It will save him being branded as rough/naughty/whatever.. and will show the kids what a responsible owner can do to ensure safety ..there are activities for kids to learn how to play around dogs, etc - Who knows the neighbour's kids may then educate Dad ;) LINK
