  1. there are doggy probiotics .. I tend to use human ones here... when introducing new things ..small quantities for a few days , and gradually increase , perhaps?
  2. try to not chop & change ? maybe try him on a probiotic as well .... What treats does he get ? Don't forget them ...or the odd bit of human food ....
  3. Yes! Not really sure why people buy them in the first place - same goes for cheap imported lollies/treats for humans . I keep well away!
  4. Ohhh, Jelly .. do whatever it takes to support yourself ....grieve , remember, curse the universe , and wrap all those sweet memories in a safe place in your heart ..
  5. Glad she has you to care for her , and hope she feels better soon!
  6. That is very sad ... I would have thought handlers/family were first choices . I hope he finds a fantastic home where he can be kept busy and happy :)
  7. :) What a busy time it will be! these three links may help - crate training LINK LINK LINK
  8. A halti has its uses .. but I do not think it should be compulsory That does make it difficult for you ..they have a 'captive audience' . Perhaps a halti can be used there ..and a flat collar at all other times? Just make sure the pup sees the halti as fun! get one fitted appropriately .. then show it pup ..treat/play ..and withhold treats except when pup has halti on ....do his favourite activities /use his VERY favourite treats . A halti can feel very restrictive to a dog unused to it ... IMO this is one reason they appear to 'instantly' help ;) pup/dog treads very carefully because of the fact their head feels enclosed .....
  9. Scary! maybe a cramp ... running after a meal is not a great idea Could have been some thing stuck somewhere ... or, yes, it may have been a trapped gas bubble ..or nausea ...that's all I can think of ..
  10. :) Poor boy - little does he know how many people have been concentrating on his little gonads .
  11. Just do something different, and post it :)
  12. Jelly ... sending you many thoughts of comfort and support ....
  13. thanks :) Anyone else 'play around" and want to share?
  14. There's a candle alight here tonight
  15. Was this your pup's first time around a group of other dogs ? How has he been during socialisation with friends' dogs, etc ? How old is he again? ..a also think another class/club may be a better 'fit' for you & your pup :)
  16. Instinct guides them to the freshest source , of course :)
  17. :) You are having fun! :) Good to see you experimenting . My eyes prefer the ones with less blue in them ....the first image in last post seems to be the one which is most balanced to me . Well Done!
  18. Using sagelight......and always trying new things....a different way of looking at what's in the viewfinder..
  19. Wow ! Such a beautiful Deck Ornament :) I think she should have a blog!! ;)
  20. ;) unless you have been privy to an awful lot of vet consults ..the truth or falsity of these observations cannot be proven . There are vets who think many overweight dogs are just 'well covered' , and seem to have no concerns .... or think roly poly puppies are wonderful ...
