Puppies do not need a lot of grains- they do not need sugar .. or coconut , or dried fruits ..... you may need to do it for a week or two though..while you gradually introduce your chosen food - just to avoid tummy upsets. BTW a lab puppy does not need soaked kibble .. they are quite capable of crunching dry food and bones at that age

wrong Oscar ;)

isn't your pup only 5 or so months old? He's a bit young to jog alongside a bike , perhaps .....

Oh.. poor little mite . I hope you can find a reason he had to leave so early .

I've just checked down the back sheds... yep!! Oh ! looks good..AND I can get it tatooe'd !! :)

Oh do you have one which doesn't collect prickles ? they look a terrific idea!

Whippets are pretty resilient .. and THE most wonderful satiny soft warm lapdog :p

..Oh, and being small framed ? provided you and the dog get properly educated together, and you continually practise your skills - this shouldn't be a problem!! After all- people and horses can work together ..look at the size difference there!!

..and you have come to a purebred dog forum to ask about researching crossbreeds ;) Welcome anyhow . why not have a read on the pages you find when you CLICK HERE all sorts of info and stories on many breeds Feel free to then ask questions on breeds you are interested in - especially on what problems you foresee. If you have NO dog experience, and are unsure of breeds- perhaps you might find benefit in going to some obedience clubs or shows to see the breeds in action? You may also learn from checking out the rescue forums CLICK HERE Lots of dogs seeking homes here- and most are fostered beforehand, and you are provided with support after adoption

Ok - so it's not because of his breed- it's just poor him with a dicky digestive system Makes it hard....

Why? I have known a couple of toys and they loved their bones

perhaps ask for the results in print ? That way you will know exactly which component the results are for .. and that will be a help to decide on further action, perhaps It will also help you understand what it all does/means

Glad she was more comfortable last night ... here's hoping !

enjoy!

Have a look HERE for answers to someone with teh same question yesterday

- but here, you are preaching to the converted. this should be published far & wide.

have you tried feeding her only meat? Only chicken/pet mince ? That way there are no carbs .. and very little residue. It sounds a very unpleasant and undignified time.I would also be giving her some inner health plus or acidopholus....

only with authorised pig hunters.

He's a young healthy animal... he is entitled.. rather he NEEDS to have periods where he can run and enjoy life ..to stretch those muscles, and get an endorphin rush . It is, IMO essential- part of growing up .... BTW the very technical term for that behaviour..is ZOOMIES

My Kieran was a deerhound X ... and the most gorgeous soft and sooky boy... he was found dumped as a puppy .

Sounds like a Monty Python sketch! But sad - perhaps they couldn't read the sign properly? Whatever- it doesn't sound wonderful.. and hopefully it was a one-off.

Sounds a good place to start ...

Vet check first, I suggest . Just some ideas....... Do you live anywhere near an airport, or factories, or a construction site or port , where there may be new activity/noise happening? Have you any thing automatically set to go on in your house at that time? Do you have possums/rats around? Have you changed her food or feeding times? have you recently used any fumigation or new paint/floor treatments or anything?

very basic! oh- I have a tabletop tripod and cleaning stuff in the front pocket book & battery in the inside cover pocket. That's it!
