To get good avice on using more natural methods to treat your girl ..perhaps try here ? They have vets on staff , are very experienced, and I have found them great to deal with . https://shop.mcdowellsherbal.com/

I remember that photo!!! Definitely Thinking of you all ...

She has taken that turn in the road now - her age & the cancer will make that journey quite short I think . Jeune sounds as if she is very tired indeed ... Cancer is indeed an insidious destroyer of life, with no regard for age or status. You are very experienced with these dear oldies ending their lives ...you will , I'm sure let Jeune go with her dignity and spirit intact So sorry, DDD

Grrrr... Tsk Tsk ... YOU create lovely images .

Bit scant on info for us to think of anything ... Your dog ? Your chooks ? What breed/how old is the dog ? How do things normally work in regard to spaces for dogs/chooks? Seperate yards ? Do chooks free range , does dog free range , or ? has the dog killed a chook/some chooks , or is it chasing them , or is it just not leaving them alone on the other side of the fence ? There are no "best things" which will suit every dog and chook problem- each dog is individual, as is every single situation involving a dog chasing/killing other animals/birds Lots of us have had this happen ..hopefully we can help .

'ere, 'ere !! <3

@Roova am Lichen your photo !

@Sooty I think you have been wise You may have some luck looking at breeders on here (DOL) ... or STAFFY RESCUE ?

NO . Walk away now . Buying a Stafford pup . OK . is it pedigreed ? Is it blue ? Do they want an arm & leg for it ? have you seen photos of parents/litter /the pup? Are they just backyard pet dogs ?

Oh dear ... it's a long & winding road for you

I do wish this 'pup' would wean itself .... at least Dulcie is keeping it nice & cool ....

@Scottsmum.. awww *melts*

ooh .... ACD puppies are SO attractive - little beasts . I hope you find a breeder who values temperament, and isn't breeding for 'colours' A nice chunky and solid temp dog should make your family complete

That is good news Now ...

I didn't have that problem out bush ..but yes , I guess ! maybe paint it pink or purple ? ..and the muzzle :P

Hamlet wore a basket muzzle for months after his foreign body scare ... it just became automatic ..no walk until "helmet" was put on (and a treat pushed thru )

Nice soft basket muzzle properly fitted for walks Stops garbage disposal !

Pudden helping ..... Like Dear little Molly , he has an amazing lightness of foot ... ..and , until I turned from the table with a scoop of soap powder I had no inkling he was there! LOL . Great Lump .

the umbrella!! The car bag wasn't one of the worst ideas ... at least dog was contained and had air ...

I wouldn't use one ..they do look an accident waiting to happen !

LOL!!

Doggy umbrella ? OK - off to google !
