  1. ..there are many many mixed breed dogs who are stable and healthy , however , ANY living creature .. whether it is a cockroach, or a human , can be born with problems...
  2. Looking forward to seeing pics as she settles :)
  3. wow! Take it very slow with her .... she has a whole new life to fit into , and is carrying all sorts of baggage ... I presume she is still very young? Hopefully she will grow into a lovely and happy girl under your care ! She looks SO much better now :)
  4. if he is getting worse ...then perhaps there is some physical thing happening in his brain ... but to find that out needs more testing/scans etc . its at times like this it would be so good if they could talk ..and help us find the problems - and he certainly sounds one unhappy and worried boy I would strongly suggest you start using ADAPTIL in some form , just see if it lessens some of that anxiety at all ? maybe even spray some on your clothing as well ....
  5. LOL ...... what a morning - and yes, I agree - lucky-VERY - and well.... maybe not unlucky - but educated a bit more :p
  6. Hopefully it was just something nasty he had .... no more diarrhoea is good! Just give him mouthfuls of water, often ..or the mere weight of a decent drink may make him vomit - and dehydration gets a hold
  7. Hi - your pup is a teen - and is loving having these new toys!! I would suggest at first , not allowing any mistakes ! This can be done keeping pup away, by using baby gates or , if he's crate trained ..use that way :)..or have him outside ? Also - have him lying on his bed, on lead ... In your daily training , practice lots of lying down/calm behaviour with him , too :) CLICK HERE for some useful info : you might also find some tips if you CLICK HERE
  8. yes...how old is pup, and how many vaccs has it had?
  9. Did the vet do a parvo test?????
  10. make sure the vet knows about the plastic .... Keep us posted,
  11. spiders do ...but it could be all sorts , and teh limp may not be related.. Hope things go OK this morning .
  12. Nikko is enjoying the different things :)
  13. Sh'e a She - and just becomes like a growth on one's leg/foot when she leans ...
  14. I am enjoying the photos :) Love the funny-faced "dingo" who seems to pop up in teh shots!
  15. He may have had one of the VERY nasty intestinal bugs - HGE, or parvo ....... I do hope it wasn't a bait. What a terrible shock for you . Take care
  16. Oh...I am SO sorry Run Free Teddy - you will now be free of that anxiety and will be at peace .
  17. today I met these two - much loved ,working pigdogs ... wanted to see how Nikko nikon saw them ;)
  18. outbackdean - THIS THREAD CLICK HERE may give you some more ideas ...
  19. Except then you are deliberately triggering the dog to aggress. Not something I'd recommend. can't it just be done with an iPhone as it happens? I certainly do NOT mean to set up a situation - apologies I just thought that if/when it happens next -and there is no imminent danger - they whip out a phone camera and video some seconds worth or something ....
  20. . as said - you need serious "first time , ONLY time" advice . Steve is my first thought - at least contact him by phone/email , and ask his opinion . He may know of someone suited to your situation - but, yes. if you can wrangle it - he has the experience and expertise for all things aggression and large dog . Oh- video some of the behaviours shown ... that is such a good thing to show professionals with whom you are dealing . !! edit to add this does NOT mean setting up a situation !! I just thought you may grab a few seconds worth if/when it happens ... sorry for any confusion ...
  21. Gorgeous shots . What a shame it will be removed You had an encounter of the UFI kind ;) Unidentified flying insect :)
