New Puppy Getting A Bit Too Excited, What Do I Do?
persephone replied to Rolodex's topic in Puppy Chat
Hi - humping in a puppy this young is probably an excitement thing.. and displacement thing... What does the pup's breeder say about it? Was the puppy with mum & littermates still? was he by himself somewhere? What toys does he have? What do you do when he STARTS to look like he is going to hump? -

Good news! -
Can you tell us what sort of health problems does the breed have which could cause your dog to die prematurely? There are probably folks on here who have experience ,and can help you if you're a bit more specific

Professionals And Non Professionals
persephone replied to Kirislin's topic in Photos, Photos, Photos
I don't think I would/could do it to earn money .. I am nowhere near professional enough in either my work or my attitude . THIS is animal photography to the "nth" degree , IMO. LINK -

Oscar drifted away ,knowing he was loved .. he is now pain free ..

.. and perhaps for a lot of people, it would be. Some people though, need time to accept the idea of ending a dog's life - time to get used to the idea that a dog they love may have problems incompatible with a happy and stress free life ... problems with either health or temperament, depending on their situation Some folks need the support/confirmation of a professional - be it vet or behaviourist, before they can make their decision. I think this is a good thing - and should be encouraged. -

This is why I,and others, have urged Mike to get an unbiased, professional assessment of his dog's temperament and problem behaviours. We can not make such a final judgement without seeing the dog. We can imagine... and go on experience ... but we are not there to see . -
Good news that you're home ...and that the gorgeous Barkly will be back with you soon :)

Even with the fire going, tonight it's only 15 indoors ..and Hamlet is hugging his pillow !

Hi First off I would be getting her vet checked again ( I presume she was checked when you first got her) have them check sight/hearing...and anything else :p is she interested n one particular toy/food/treat? Will she pay more attention to you if you have something like this?

Mike- definitely 'try something' .. PTS is a big decision ..and you need to assimilate the idea ... so please contact the folks mentioned on here (numerous times) They are trusted and recommended .. get Missy assessed, and then you will have support . D O L is a great place to share these sorts of journeys .... hang in there. -
