  1. OMG sooooooooooooooooooooooo gorgeous So puppy clucky now
  2. I have been thinking about this lately as we are planning on moving further out but on more land. At the moment I am only a ten minute drive from work so am usually gone 8 - 4:30ish, although do have days off for uni. The new place is about 30min drive but there is a chance I could be moved back into the city for work With summer here I have been getting up early and exercising in the back yard. I used to alternate walking dogs (not quite game enough to walk both together :p ) but now do 45 minute interval session in the backyard and take them both out there and they just run around stupid, (whilst I run around stupid ) then plonk on the floor. We all seem to be getting a better workout that way I never let them off lead around here (no fenced areas and alot of idiots ) However I am a big softy and have a conference coming up where I will be gone from 7am to ??? so have booked them into a couple of nights stay at a kennel as I am worried they'll go a little loopy with no-one home that long. I tend to spend all weekend with them out of guilt If I'm not home then they are outside - rain, hail, shine. I'm trying to design the new house so it includes an enclosed dog-proof area (I am such a sucker )

  7. Lulu gets washed in the kids bath with a shower attachment. Jonty just gets a wipe down with a warm face washer. If it's summer and stinky hot, they may have a bath in the early part of the day with a bucket and hose. I only really wash them if they need it (ie. Lu has gone for a swim in the fish pond or Jonty has a poopy bum ). I don't think they need a regular washing schedule. They also get a bath if they have a kennel stay. A bit like my car only gets cleaned with I take it in for a service
  8. Hey there :cool: Lulu (GSDx) has a lump/cyst on her neck, vet says is caused by an infected hair follicle? Vet said she can express it but it will likely come back bigger than before. Or she can remove it surgically. It isn't bothering Lu, and is in an area she can't reach. I'm wondering if it's worth the pain (and risk) to Lu to have surgery for something that isn't causing her any dramas? Vet gave me the impression that it wasn't absolutely necessary to have it removed . Just after some opinions/experiences :p
  9. Hmmm I got an email saying they don't have my postal address, but when I check my Canon account my address is there??? I don't know if I should reply with my address or not
  10. I just downloaded the horse ones from youtube as I missed it, and there is a dog series there too Martin Clunes: A Man and His Dogs. Is this the same one??? I've downloaded them anyways ETA: Just looked at the link in BM's OP and it is the same one. This bit should make for some discussion when it airs:
  11. Awesome pics Though the first thing that came into my head was, "Feed me, Seymour" :D
  12. I wanted The Littlest Hobo dog not sure what he was - GSDx maybe And Benji (also probably a mutt )
  13. It is very true that annual vaccinations, cortisone based drugs, etc are a definite NO NO. I wonder who is responsible for writing an article stipulating that a dog's digestive system can accommodate whatever they are being fed? lol. I am also left wondering if they have any monetary incentive in saying this? perhaps a link to the pet food industry, lol. I am compelled to ask if you and other posters have actually read what is being used in pet food and the noxious ingredients such as preservatives and additives that are thrown in? And the person who wrote the article you posted doesn't? She is a distributor for a "Premium Pet Food" called Flint River Ranch www.naturalexpressions.com
  14. I haven't tried them, but have read good things on here about: Ocean Keys Vet Hospital - 9408 6999 Dr Adrian Burstein & Associates Unit 8A, 61 Key Largo Drive, Clarkson Grooming, Boarding, Ultrasound, 24hr emergency, doggy day care ETA: to the forum
