I've lost one dog to this. My experience with Sam has me made me decide that if it strikes again PTS pretty well straight away. If the dog was diagnosed while sedated for xrays I would not bring them out. If not sedated then I would most likely arrange for the vet to come to the house the next day. what ever you do will be right for you and Tess

My bitch stopped feeding the pups when they were 3 weeks old. She was relucant to be with them for a few days before that but I made her get in and feed them, she looked so miserable I soon gave it up and started feeding the pups from 3 weeks on. She still cleaned them for another week or so and was happy to play with them but the feeding stopped. Mine went onto 5 - 6 meals a day with no ill effect.

doesn't matter where they come from or what their breeding is, we all like our dogs to look their best :D

well done on your wins Sway and thanks for the results

does this mean he has access to these other animals? cause 2 dogs will create a lot more havoc if they can both chase the stock.

I agree with this, you seem to have huge doubts which to me means no.

for you all

I wouldn't be making any deal with him about house or furniture. The dogs are a separate thing. Who is moving out? If it is you, just take the dogs with you. Then when you settle for an amount of money, the monetary value of the dogs and what has been contributed to their upkeep can be taken into account. what a horrible thing to say, the dogs were bought by both parties and are loved by both parties. So was everything else they bought as a couple. Splitting up means somebody misses out, at least until settlement. If it were my dogs I would take them with me and not leave them behind like the washing machine or fridge. but they are not her dog they are their dogs

so group 4 will now be on 2nd on the Sat?

agree, but I would also add in raspberry cordial.

I work night shift so my dogs are inside with me during the day but I always worried about clamshells and dogs doing zoomies through them then hurting themselves by slipping etc. This is in a back yard not just in a dog run. In a dog run I wouldn't worry.

I'd remove the eye as well. My parents had a peke who had an eye removed and coped very well with it.

well so be it, but to me you were just gathering ammunition to use against your partner. It's why my only advice was to talk to him.

Sorry but you are not automatically the better owner just because you say so. Your partner has an equal say in what happens to the dogs, after all they are half his. You need to talk to him, not a forum.

I've only had one pull washing of the line dog and found the only thing to work was to keep her inside or in the dog yard while the washing was out. She grew out of it. Nothing else worked and I tried lots of things - good luck

ask the vet about a calcium supplement while he is not allowed bones. I'd feed the barley and include the water it is cooked in.

I echo this ... and about quotes, I was pleased to see the woman advocating larger dogs for elderly people. So many people think: weak, can't lift up, etc etc and so advocate small dogs. I can't think of anything much more dangerous than small dogs around the feet of older people. The trouble I see with Stan in a situation like that, Stan's Mummy, is that once he'd found a bed, would he move? Jealousy would be rampant - LOL - unless he selected a different bed every day. I was interested in that they took the colour of the dog into consideration. All the things to think about. Wonderful. That's pretty disappointing. I get the feeling black is the colour they're trying to avoid and given how many greys are black, that's a very bad message to be sending to the public. I disagree, residents in nursing homes often have poor sight. A black dog lying down inside can be hard to spot. Every nursing I've ever been in has had either white or very pale floors. A black dog would stand out very clearly, even in the dark. If your nursing home has black carpets, by all means pick a lighter dog for safety but in this case.. I don't believe safety was the deciding factor in the colour choice. why are you trying so hard to find fault? It's a great article, great promotion for greyhounds and you're hung up on colour even though they explained the reasons for it. White dogs are easier to see.

Huh? I don't go around people's neighbourhoods seeing what dogs live close by when adopting a dog. If the OP is walking their dog on a lead and has the dog under effective control then they are in the right, not all dogs appreciate other dogs approaching them and that's fair enough. they live on shared property, private property, where other unit people let their dogs off lead cause it is in their own yard. Not out in the street or around the corner.

Wendles I have sent you a PM

it's what I do for my pups. C3 vacc at 8 and 12 weeks, then booster 12 months after the 12 week shot, so booster at 15 months. My pup is 12 months soon and I was hoping to wait til 15 months for his booster (he just came off a course if antibiotics so I want to wait for abit). Glad to know someone else has done the booster at 15 months! Most people just say 12 month booster when they mean 12 months after the last puppy shots :) I've always done mine around 14/15 months

actual time in quarantine should only be 10 days by then but there are blood tests and rabies shots that need to be given in a certain time frame.

:clap: :clap: well done ACT
