  1. :) have you ever had anaesthetic? It can make you feel quite odd and disoriented and it is a bit upsetting when arms&legs don't work the way you want :p Just leave him quiet ....and no, he will not need food tonight.... unless he is absolutely wide awake as normal. Make sure he is somewhere safe-- so he doesn't try to walk down steps, or jump onto things .
  2. I'm glad she's safe .. & glad some kind folks found her ! perhaps she climbed over somewhere?
  3. She is beautiful .. and now I'm looking forward to gangly foal pics!
  4. Lovely tight feet :) Pretty markings, too!
  5. :) Looking forward to seeing her in action via photos!What great news for you :)
  6. I also wish Captions were permitted ... it helps . Anyway ..amazing countryside!! I like number 3 A lot. There is lots to rest my eye on ..and with a bit of tweaking .. that little log area can be helped along, I'm sure. Technically wise- I have NO idea, sorry ..I just know which one I came back to . :)
  7. Maybe ....... ..she also needs to be TAUGHT which items she can have .. and crating her won't really do this ... if she is, however attached to you via a lead ..you can be there to guide her ..and channel her activity /interest into things she IS allowed :) You also both get to know each other's moves/body language really well .
  8. I usually soak a tissue or swab in saline , and rip it gently into the corner ..with my hand in the centre of dog's head .. obviously cold liquid is a shock .. so room temp or SLIGHTLY warm is more comfortable :)
  9. Sorry you lost your mate ... she leave you with so many warm and comforting memories to help with the physical loss ...
  10. <br style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: verdana, tahoma, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; background-color: rgb(238, 242, 247); ">No.. the idea is not to just feed him , it is to keep him occupied for a long time , maybe all day- on & off ..and give him challenges ...with a reward at the end :) After rolling a ball around ..it often will get bruised/split ..so the pup licks the juice, and starts to nibble (well, that's what happens here, anyhow )
  11. :) IF he will chew on them :p a lot of dogs are sensible and refuse to chew on synthetic toys ,(which are mostly marketed to be appealing to the human eye , by the way) ....... Will he chew on an apple? (wash, but leave peel on). he can also play with apples ..roll them around and chase them like balls ..and then sit down & have a nibble ! I love using them as puppy toys .
  12. cottage cheese is really not classed as 'something to chew' If you are interested in learning more about what foods contain the nutrients needed ...and read about other's experience in feeding all sorts of diets .. CLICK HERE :) Snowy is lucky having such a concerned owner... but just remember , worrying does neither of you a favour ....
  13. <br style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: verdana, tahoma, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; background-color: rgb(238, 242, 247); ">Thanks for the update :) You can also ask Troy for this thread to be locked ..so info can be kept visible... I have been thinking of you today ...and am glad you have heard from Jane at least. Good luck to you and all your furries ..hope you now have a period of peace .
  14. So - she does it while you're there? Little horror :p does she have a really special treat ball or chew object that she could only have when inside ?
  15. Either third or second for portrait :) I love the second one, actually! That first one has so many great angles/shadows! ..and interesting broken windows ..old poles with porcelain insulators- lots of good stuff! :) What happens when you crop certain areas to get those angles featured? Does it look different ?
  16. LOL!!Least you have littl'uns. I used to do similar with labs ...
  17. there is Koehler discussion ... in THIS THREAD.... :)
  18. Why bother? if he does NOT throw up...then he is just like the millions of other normal dogs :p
  19. yes ! A lot of behaviours which are normal for dogs ..are also not acceptable when those dogs are in close confines /living with humans, in houses. To a lesser extent, behaviour like protecting resources, marking objects, digging beds/dens are normal canine things..but not what owners want happening in their houses/around their families.
  20. having him empty one day will not cause an ulcer .... and when fasted , all dogs have some acid/liquid in their stomachs ..don't panic! :) *breathe* !! Ask your vet about giving the 'supper' biscuit ...and follow his/her advice. :)
  21. It is for Snowy's safety to be fasted. Sometimes dogs throw up ..and if there is food in the stomach when they do , this may then go into the lungs...which is a very bad plan So, an empty tummy means much less risk of trouble! Snowy throwing up a bit of stomach acid/bile is nothing drastic ..he is just cleaning out his tummy .... and so I would not suggest giving him anything at all!
