persephone

:)

poor lady - though to be fair ..the owner did at least give her some care - the eye would not have looked all bruised & swollen at that stage ... What a shame

Glad you got to it quickly :) Hope all is well.

there's a rescue Tibbie X boy ...HERE

get rid of the wandering dew!!! ALL of it! or fence off the area so dog cannot near it .... that could well be the cause -

What is he diagnosed as being allergic TO ? :) That ,and that alone will determine the management of it . if he is allergic to grains , or certain meat proteins, or pollen, or flea treatment, or vaccination diluent , or dog shampoo .. it is all different .... What are his symptoms ?

Hazy - oh poor Stan :p

:) that's a better post - glad she had a drier night! When mum's old girl started wetting overnight , I used these over her ordinary bed . It worked really well :)

I second, and third this :)

Where is the like button..... where's the PHOTO! ??

gee,,I am SO glad they do leave you a little space !!! :)

Great Dane :) CLICK

Stan must get so exhausted working out ways to thwart the mighty Fridge monster :p

The bolded bit is the important one :)

Sunday Sleep-In , Ess Style ..

if you know how to properly use a check chain and have had success , and are relaxed using that method - you'll get no complaints from me . Check chains in inexperienced and rough/untrained hands can be nasty . What I would suggest is to do HEAPS of work at home ..teach him heel ..get him really keen to stay with you , at your side , learn every little twitch of his, so you know what he's thinking ..and work on that... at home just walk around slowly ...have a toy or favourite treat with you ..and when he is by your side happily .. but not "begging"/jumping he gets praised . No other conversation ;) practice N I L I F ..and make sure "dad" does it too . That way you will have a youngster who watches and understand you much more ..and vice versa . This, to me, is far more important than any physical controlling of a dog's head/body . :)

Why not start a thread asking for a professional who can work in your area ? it's quicker and easier than trying to search alone ;) Glad she enjoys her playtimes ..and hopefully a bit later, she will also relax and listen while onlead ! ;)

Oh Dear ...... :)

Sorry, Mon - she was beautiful :)

Ok... you NEED to have a consult with a trainer /behaviourist - ideally one who some folks have worked successfully with , and trust. Asking for names on here would be my suggestion. Wanting to greet other dogs, being excited & then frustrated , pulling , etc ... is all behaviour which can be worked on when YOU learn some more about the whys & hows :) At the moment - SHE is training YOU to allow meet & greet sesssions , on HER terms . This is not really how the dog/owner thing should work ;) :p You're still using a harness?

romping? these are heavy duty rompers ...and my photo aptitude isn't up to movement & such I'll see what I can get ;)

rule of thirds is useful - yes! My guess is that is why my eyes kept going to the shape/reflection of kettle /jug ? Which is the more important in the shot? Which could stand alone, and have the other as the "fine print" ?

I like the macaron one :) Technically - I have no idea :p The second one .... the background distracted me a bit ..and I kept trying to focus the gorgeous jug! :) have you tried placing things right near the (short)edge of a table ..so that when you take a pic /look down a bit on them ...all you get is the length of the table ?No distractions .... Well Done :)

Not sure of her future as yet ... she is pretty staid ...not as much drive as some of our pups , but in many ways she is like her maternal grandma ..even down to the 'silent yip' :) Our workers are not really 'pets' but they aren't isolated ..when out working /camping , this one's mum has been known to share the boss's swag ( or that of anyone else who happens to be there as well , and is willing!!) LOL .

:) they are :)
