:) she looks very large now! pretty girl ....

Lucky George :) at least Teddy gets an airing ;)

here is a snap from the other night with friends on a houseboat - and a lovely little boy to whom the world is a playground :)

This from a friend : CLICK HERE excerpt :

denali - 'companions' - horses & donkeys ... :) LOVE it.

Taliecat - hasten slowly with teh next one !! :)

:D so glad you now at least have a diagnosis - and perhaps a new vet ! ( actually betadine is what I use here ..and have had no problems - however for that particular thing it may not be suitable :) )

Chicken necks are a bit dangerous if they are swallowed whole ... wings are very fatty ... You can easily feed your dog 3 small meals ..brekky ... early tea... late supper.... :) PLEASE see an experienced person .The longer you fiddle with food , the more your dog is uncomfortable and you have no idea of what is happening inside

So Sorry Rozzie ... that is a very long partnership.... Columbus takes with him an awful lot of wisdom to share at the bridge :)

...oohh .. a Dog Den in the making . A place of cuddles and cute and comfort - actually it sounds pretty good.

yes! Don't give up/in just yet . get on that phone VERY early in the morning ..have all the facts ready ..and seek good advice.

There must be someone wise 'in the industry' you can phone/email...............how horrible.

is there any provision to say cancel a lease within 24 hours or something???? That sounds a fail - fail situation I'm sorry.

..and why do you HAVE to change the sleeping on bed habit ? After all - it is something you have now taught him. ... if you wanted him to sleep elsewhere- that's where he should be now - secured ,so he cannot run around teh yard barking all night and learning BAD habits like chasing cats/possums/rats /fence fighting , etc ....

:) I LOVE that bed ..great size , and nice walls against which to snuggle , and to help stop drafts . he is a very cute boy :)

So sorry . Jessie was such a pretty girl .. and looked to enjoy herself :)

hey! it's YOUR money she is taking - it is YOUR right to ask for a referral :)

The cosy bed is in one end and the other seems to be a tray with a puppy pad. Oh.... might try different glasses - ta rozzie.

I have owned/worked with many many dogs ..and haven't found things like this happening ...yes, maybe our dogs need a few small meals rather then one large ..but our dogs eat the same foods all their lives... I will suggest you find another vet - one who will do blood/urine/faecal tests to actually help find a CAUSE .... By checking all these- the vet and you know what is floating around inside- what is being processed,and how..and what is being excreted .... well worth the cost for a case like this ....

..I hope your dog will have collar free time - these seem to me as if they act like a neck brace ... where dog can not curve its neck ..and has a firm/hard edge pressing up behind its ears all the time . What if you measure wrong and get one too long? .... These look a bit more comfortable..and they are sold locally ! CLICK When we are around, and dogs need to not chew- I use a muzzle! much easier and non restrictive , if sized correctly :) perhaps one of THESE would keep you and dog happy ?

..is it just me ..or is that 'potty' looking just like a cosy bed?

The happiest cavs I have known were a pack who lived on a small property with cattle, lots of birds to chase away from a vineyard ..and plenty of obedience training . they were also shown!

I have only met a few of teh lagotto breed - I fell in love with two who lived at a winery some years back . One was standoffish..one was an absolute darling ..they were there to greet the public etc ..and looked so impressive :) not sure what standard poodle temperament is like now ..but I do remember them as being very smart ..and show offs ..and irresistible :) And, yes to playing with a ball etc!

and this is vitally important - he has a companion ..AND access to indoor/outdoor . he is not alone and outside .

Poor old boy. What tests did the vet do to see how his internal workings are working? Very hard to find a food to suit if you do not know what exactly to avoid ....... Can he tolerate eggs - whole raw, or lightly cooked?
