I have 3 border collies...14 years, 6 years & almost 1. They all get the same food with the puppy getting a bit more plus training treats. Currently they are on Supercoat Adult, plus eggs, fresh (frozen) sardines, yogurt, chicken wings or drumsticks, & fish oil The two older dogs do well on this, so much so that I have to watch that they don't gain too much weight. The old boy is going well for his age & the six year old is very active. However, the puppy (1 yr old) struggles to gain weight. He is very active & growing tall (his front legs come right up to his chin lol, & his back legs are so long, that when he sits, he sits like a frog. He weighs 19 kilo & so far not desexed. I can feel his ribs & his backbone really easy, & I feel he is quite skinny... a bit like a greyhound with long hair. Am I worried about nothing & he is just having a growing spurt?? Or is there something I could feed him , apart from 100% raw (as we are camping & have limited freezer space). I know I could feed him things like porridge, but would prefer it to be a whole food. Looking for recommendations please that is readily available in our local pet stores

I looked into getting a new one about 4 years ago & had no luck. But I think I saw that they are no longer made in Australia, just designed & Australian company But things may have changed

Are there cheaper alternatives to Nexgard Spectra?

I have never needed a prescription for Nexgard & I have been giving it to my dogs for 14 years with no ill- effect -

I thought the same thing. I have well behaved border collies but I wouldn't leave them alone with a child -
Depends on what experience you have with the breed & what you are specifically looking for.....show?...performance ??etc Your post does not really say anything, except to copy & paste a 2012 post

Just asking out of curiosity....what breed of puppy are you after?

Has anyone used these to help calm a dog during thunderstorms? There are so many on the market & are obviously different quality. I like the sound of these ones, but they are from overseas https://www.pipsbootique.com/?fbclid=IwY2xjawGfi0tleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHeLIkVzmyRslHhwAbYXbwgtREUUam7an4PjBcDcrIQgqmQyj6ydoS8gowA_aem_NgjHjT2FEjvgaAjYwFW_7w

Why do they list the Cavoodle in with most popular dog breeds.....it is not a "breed"

I would never take my dog to an off leash dog park. That is not what socialisation is about & it will create issues & end in tears. Agree with everything Persephone has said above

It is a great idea...but a pity...that the legalities have to come into it. What ever happened to people being responsible for their own decisions? Now we are all wrapped in cotton wool & the lawyers are out there waiting for someone to trip up, so they can sue -

With or without an actual attack, it must have been very scary for the person with the other dog
