  1. Oh poor girl..and very hard to watch. Sorry .
  2. just be careful of him around the cat ..one day cat may get cross- and pup can easily lose an eye !
  3. She will show more signs of being able to remember you .. once normal routines start happening She may well be confused and wary because of the changes ..you will smell different, and probably are acting /moving differently too. Don't worry too much - and happy healing !
  4. Oh How sad to lose a youngster like that . So sorry for you and the family.
  5. yep .. I just leave 'em be.. or , if you have a bed somewhere cosy and dark.. put them in there. Hamlet asks to go to his bed in my room, usually .. so in he goes , and stays there. I don't even talk to him ..and he comes out when he's ready. He's only recently started being unnerved by storms ... if you have any rescue remedy .. use a couple drops every 1/2 hour or so .
  6. Oh I am glad you got to say goodbye, and that he is in no more pain. take care.
  7. Hi . oscar`is doing what he'd do to other pups/dogs. the difference is usually that other pups/dogs would growl/nip if he got too rough . In my opinion, any pup/dog teeth on human skin is a NO NO ...but people differ. I am posting links to some D O L threads which may be useful for you as it's a matter of finding what suits you and your particular puppy. http://www.dolforums.com.au/topic/219420-is-max-dominating-me-how-do-i-stop-it/page__p__5278999__hl__%2Bpuppy+%2Bmouthing__fromsearch__1#entry5278999 http://www.dolforums.com.au/topic/224777-bite-inhibition-vs-no-mouthing-humans/page__p__5439016__hl__%2Bmouthing+%2Bbiting__fromsearch__1#entry5439016 http://www.dolforums.com.au/topic/204904-mouthingbiting-issues/page__p__4809552__hl__%2Bmouthing+%2Bbiting__fromsearch__1#entry4809552 http://www.dolforums.com.au/topic/171842-are-teeth-ever-okay/page__hl__%2Bpuppy+%2Bmouthing I hope you can find some strategies in here which will help
  8. Oh, gosh ..I hope it is found safe, being so rare & all.! hope she is ok, really.
  9. My bold. 'zackly! It's the sitting there for 15 minutes or whatever, GNAWING/CHEWING and having a whole meal that is worked for which makes meaty bones a wonderful , natural thing
  10. Oh I hope that letter "goes viral" ..and spreads a message.
  11. I was wondering how she was going... Hopefully now it will get a good chance to heal !
  12. ..why waste yet more money , when a specialist visit will probably enable a diagnosis to be finally made ?
  13. very cute poodle cross/puppy-farm/moneymaking commodity. Unfortunately , mixed breed puppies like this cutie are not bred with any care or concern ..and are simply a way of making money To learn more .. have a read HERE
  14. [quote they should not have put your pup under, knowing that there was only one visible testicle and they would need to investigate further. At the very least , I'd be making sure that you didn;t have to pay for any additional surgery, especially another GA, as it should all have been done at the one time, including an ultrasound prior to putting the pup under. GA's aren't kind on a dogs body but I think you have been left with no option, other than to put him under again and have the surgery completed, if they manage to locate the other. He could well have been born with one testicle.
  15. Evil = CUTE Happy Birthday, Oh, Evil one
  16. And he probably did however it is not an acceptable behaviour by dogs living closely with humans. ..same as it is not kindly looked upon if we punch all those who we think deserve it . ;)
  17. So ? consult someone who CAN see what's happening, and do things properly . Sometimes when we are too close, we can not see all the problems/possibilities. A fresh pair of eyes and and much experience can help.
