Supplements may take some weeks to work ..and may not be what he needs now , poor lad.

I've worked with a couple of these , and was impressed :) LINK or .. BIG and fluffy .. and utterly gorgeous , but not coloured/marked :) The ones I knew were terrific with kids... LINK

An accident - it's happened - now : Firstly - slap your boyfriend hard . then work on getting her speyed , unless she is of terrific pedigree and is registered with your canine council. there are just so many stafford pups /dogs free to good homes etc and , I am being gentle here .. trying to stop you making bigger mistakes in a little while ... I know it's tempting to breed your dogs whom you love ... but ..have a peep here . sometime ..perhaps not now , but at some stage :) ....LINK .. LINK then..slap the boyfriend again That's a good thing ... it means she will be spared this pregnancy :)

..why does that nose remind me of a sharpei??? *shrug* Heinz 57 I think ..:) possibly from some sort of pigging line ? Ridgie X or GSD X

I always clipped our O E S D ... her amazing coat was just not compatible with all the prickles/dust/fleas /mud around here !! As she was always short coated , and indoors a lot , there was problem regarding 'missing' coat and when racing around outside she could do whatever she liked :)

The usual 'golden rule' is to never vaccinate a sick puppy ... their immune systems are busy fighting off one thing, and then they cop a dose of something else ... however... if you trust this vet , then go ahead .

That sounds fine :) It'll come .. body contact in any form is great! :) have you tried a soft brush , just when he's relaxed.. let him see/sniff it ..then run it smoothly along a side ..or just above his tail ...if he sits for a few seconds..let him sniff it again ....repeat ... if he jumps up .. let the brush drop ,so he can see/sniff it again ...with no hand attached :)

I found them eventually .... :)

yes! it is a pretty strong odour! :)

link no work ? well, it works..but is apparently not correct ...

Good update!! Just let him make the approach now ...even if it means smearing your hands with peanut butter ;) Try not to reach for him ..allow him to get confident moving toward you ..it's happening !! :)

Dear old soul ...

... What a sad little family - I am sorry .

:) Glad the BT is back home !! I hope the JRT owner has learnt a valuable lesson ... flesh & fight- you'll get a bite !

Thank goodness for that.

No dog/human attack .. just a bite , and a misplaced digit in the way I wonder, in the investigation will dog behaviour professional be offered a chance to explain about the state of mind in fighting/stressed dogs , and of people , frantic to stop a fight? I , and I know others here, who have also been bitten when we tried to stop a fight .... hardly an attack on us .

Oh my Goodness ..... they are HUGE !.

We've done it here , with pups kept to see if they 'grow out of it'..... not at all pleasant , but .....

maddy , yes, it's sad - however I always like to think that I am giving their spirits a release from the unhappiness and pain and fear ...

A-men to that!!

Decent compost/mulch helps break things down naturally :) my cat litterboxes just use available soil etc here, and I find if I use leafmouldy stuff as opposed to clean sand, the smell is hardly noticeable . if you are no gardener, but have plants in that area, pls check with a nursery before adding anything. Plants will die quickly if soil pH is wrong, if their tiny surface roots cannot access air/moisture, or if nutrients from the mulch/soil are in the wrong balance ;)

The link doesn't work "[#10342] We could not determine which forum this topic is in." Oh.. yes, sorry . It was about cat runs etc .. home made, cat mc mansions ..all sorts to keep indoor cats safe outdoors :) (and to stop owners tearing their hair out at clawed flyscreens & things!!

LOL !! Love the walking on water one ! What a happy lot of doggies ,and a great park!!

Oh..and some ideas for your cat when you move ;) LINK have fun researching your new dog ..... :)

Great
