Of course they are ! :) :) They are doing so well ..congratulations on your training!

poor dog has possibly had a UTI for a week or more ................. I hope the vet visit is VERY soon.

To be useful, and able to be accurately tested, the sample will need to be fresh ..from memory less than 24 hrs old .

:)

Soup ladle/serving spoon with extended handle?

OK.... now all someone needs to do is make a D O L book out of these gorgeous memories !!!! :)

Awwwww :) Kieran always did it very deferentially ..it was certainly not a "yes! Come with me now!" - it was almost as if he had finally found a way to breach the communication barrier, and was just SO pleased that he could do so :)

She could have kennel cough, and a bladder infection, or it could be any one of a number of issues ..unfortunately a vet visit (with urine in hand) and maybe blood tests are about the the only way to find out

*breathes* I am so glad he's OK.

:) what a cute photo!

Oh gosh..I have just so very many ........ One that sprang to mind was of my absolutely gorgeous Kieran ..who was a 'pig dog'..daneXdeerhoundX ? 42 kg.scruffer. He was fascinated by rabbits ..and one day caught one . he brought it to me ..must have shifted his grip ...rabbit squealed, Kieran dropped it , and then ran to hide behind my legs!!! :D It was so funny . Kieran is also the only dog I've had who slept on my bed ....but not all the time , and mostly in Winter, where he would lie along my back ..and provide a wonderful warm comfort if I was feeling not the best . I also remember walking kieran thru a crowded mall ..and he was feeling very mellow and happy, so he gently took a lady by the hand and walked along with her - tail wagging happily ...funny thing was, the lady did not appreciate it .At all He used to often walk me like this ..ever so gently....

That's possibly for young pups ? 12 hrs is really only overnight - which most dogs do every single day :)

even if you think it may be worms ... the rule is to NEVER worm a sick dog (unless it's done by a vet) I hope she gets some help tomorrow ..and no food tonight will not harm her at all - but it WILL give her poor gut a rest and a chance to start healing :)

..R I P Panda .. I am so sorry he had to leave

:) 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 .

corgis can cope :p Love this youtube video!

A while .......

I'm glad she's safe .. & glad some kind folks found her ! perhaps she climbed over somewhere?

She is beautiful .. and now I'm looking forward to gangly foal pics!

Lovely tight feet :) Pretty markings, too!

:) Looking forward to seeing her in action via photos!What great news for you :)

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 . :)

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 .

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 :)

Sorry you lost your mate ... she leave you with so many warm and comforting memories to help with the physical loss ...
