Love that last photo :) Glad it's going well . Another week & you'd never guess :)

What else is she eating to stay alive ? is she able to chew/eat bones/treats? has she had a vet check ? How long do you try a new brand for ? Do you hand feed the dog ? is food left down for her to nibble , or does she get set meals ?

Best of luck with the poor old boy - not what he needs- or you

I would suggest that you try meds - BUT please get a consult with a Veterinary behaviourist - NOT your GP vet . That way you can also ask about crating .Not sure if that would have him anxious with nowhere to go /nothing to do to alleviate it .Other habits may develop...?

..and I was impressed at how calm you were with all the carry-on happening .

LOL! Guilty :p

Ranga - is that like being out somewhere & forgetting there is no garbage disposal under the table ????

Must admit - I use a similar eco friendly cleaner for saucepans with bits stuck on the bottom ;)

:) Lovely Seven . Congratulations.

Don't know , sorry . what things does he have that he is allowed to chew? Bones deer antlers kongs nylabones plastic drink bottles cardboard cartons Large Rope toys also - these toys are fantastic - long lasting , and tough. AussieDog.

Interesting concept :)

yes

if the MF has had previous experience ..maybe her? how will she cope being an only dog though?

Sometimes , if an owner is given to know that there is help available in removing the dog from their yard , and finding it a home , their first kneejerk reaction disappears. Faced with sobbing kids/mauled pet (possibly the first experience of death)... and the apparent heartlessness/aggressiveness of the once -cute puppy ..one answer looms large - and other solutions just do not enter into it . Sure, there are folks who would PTS just because ... Hope this situation was resolved happily.

course she likes bacon ! ;) not allowed it ..but will scoff any that lands near her ...

maddy --- priceless!!! :D

Fried Egg daisies, & Trouble this evening .

When I watched it back I was surprised at how Irish I sounded. I've lived here nearly ten years. I thought it was as good as gone! It's just beautifully blended now :)

brilliant :)- and what a gorgeous accent!!!!

verry cute :)

It really does boil down to how pups grow & develop on whatever they are given :)

:)

why? because she's a dog ..they see their world thru scent. Read here if you want a full explanation : CLICK

Dogs use their smell a LOT - and their bodies react . It is ESSENTIAL that any articles with body fluids on are completely locked away from dogs . Close doors - immediately bin/wash items..and put things out of reach.

Not knowing the story ... you have a Chi? I figure that if neighbours are so upset by the noise, then they would be happy to do diaries etc to help you stop it! I think it's a shame that council see it as such a horrible thing to do - but will happily advocate anti bark collars etc ...
