try getting him to sleep on plain cotton sheets etc washed in hot water ONLY (no detergent) His own bed would be good do you sue any air freshener/insect repellant etc at night? Do YOU shower/spray/anoint yourself with any cream etc at night? Where does he do his final toilet? what plants are around (photos would be helpful). Or- what have ypu used in teh garden recently that he may be rolling in? Does he get any treat at bedtime?

Hopefully it's 'only' a tummy bug Vomiting/bloody stools are usually not from eating rubbish, IMO. If she gets worse before the scheduled app't take her in anyway! Hope she's sorted soon

*yawn* anyone want pancakes?? There is Golden Syrup, cream and/or lemon *finds a spare bit of sofa... back to my audiobook listening... *

lovely idea..can't sew.

I would also suggest you see a vet re her anal glands..

Oh just popped in- busy here ... not the best news . Jed- candle lit- prayers sent . VERY gentle one . *leaves a box of choccies on a coffee table and goes out again*

They are giving you SO many smiley moments . I am so glad .

X2 if you ask on here, someone will recommend a suitable person for you . best of luck with it - No fun getting complaints- and certainly no fun for your dog

baby steps - You will find what works, don't panic With the cats- make sure they have an escape place .. or are able to go outside to their run with no doggy access. Also- try having her on a long lead around teh scaredycat- so you can reinforce her looking to you, and remind her when she looks at the cat. ;)

Snail bait is just an accident waiting to happen. RIP Phoebe. So Sorry baifra.

all that sugar.

have your dog checked for HYPOGLYCAEMIA , as well as heart function. friends of ours had similarprob- took ages to rule out heart.... turned out it was hypoglycaemia .

!!! How awful It's not as if the camels are something strange at Cable beach.... What is there to investigate, I wonder?

This is my take on it - I have never done trialling etc Honestly- I think a lot of the overseas ones are for the colder climes... dogs working hard in snow etc may need the extra burst (feel free to correct me) A young FIT dog, fed a diet which is full of good things, should not need energy bars :0 An electrolyte drink maybe in Summer if needed... but other stuff I think is a waste of money. We have working sheepdogs, and they work long ,consecutive days..like 8 hrs- not just an hour or two. They can run many km a day..jump, balance ... they are incredibly fit tho.. and are mainly fed raw when working .

fran- make up an album in photobucket or facebook- pop teh pics in there, and just give folks the link That way we can go see them in all their glory! I like the dog in the waves pics

Love the Monarch Butterfly- and teh wasp? on yellow flower

Lol - the fly on top looks happy he does! which is weird= considering a fly's face

Goes to bed with happier thoughts

See them all? Jed- these candles are so bright now- Can't wait til you log on and see them all shining for you (gentle one)

Oops... here are the chips!! The paper towel's a bit soggy .. they have a bit of vinegar on them \\\enjoy!

Oh Darn... I have something in my eyes ! Who had those tissues? THANK YOU, TOOHEY !!! :laugh: goes to light a 'thank you candle'

Thanks for the game of crib - have to go do stuff outside now- hopefully the doctor or someone will pop in with an update while I'm away . Would anyone like some hot chips? Home made?

sounding good . remember tho she needs her work- she also needs to learn to CHILL

She probably enjoyed having him there- and now misses his company . Don't 'feel sorry' for her- walk her and work her more.. and keep to the normal routines as much as possible. edit to add- shame you couldn't take him permanently - I hope he finds a home where he is looked after
