So horrible Poor thing.

I use the furminator on my GSD and Ragdoll cat and loooove it! I use it in conjunction with a comb.

What an awful week

That is so frustrating Some people will never learn.

Such a terrible thing to happen Hope he is ok.

My vet were great. Firstly they didn't make us pay the bill on the day and said we could work it out when we collected Minka's ashes as we were very very upset and we received a lovely card from them

Mine are like that too. Makes things easier on the day. And the staff are so kind the next time they see me - more tears all round - but it is lovely to know that they understand how much our pets mean to us, and they share in our loss.

Exactly, We were crying so much and to stand there in reception trying to get payment organised would have been terrible, I cried again when we collected her ashes but they were all so understanding

Glad you are on the mend My thoughts have been with you.

I get the "Oh she is a Belgian Shepherd" and when I explain no she is a purebred German Shepherd (Long Coat Black Sable)I get the "hmmm I don't think so" Wellll I have the limited register papers to prove it! Gets frustrating! Granted now she is older we don't get it very often.

I have a black GSD that people often argue has "Kelpie in it".........Proper GSD's are black and tan this person argues like the one over there............pointing to a Belgian Malinios

Cheers

hmm think that's about it lol

It frightens me that just any jo blo can get their hands on a dog, anyone. Including heartless souls who discard of their loyal dog of 11years just like this. Poor animals

Exactly! It's so unfair

That is awful what a gorgeous boy. I can't understand some people.

My girl prefers German Shepherds, every time she sees a Shepherd she goes alittle silly hehehe

Over the years I have had many dogs desexed, male and female, and they have always remained as they were before. Never agressive, this is the first I have ever heard of them becoming aggressive after desexing. We have had multiple dogs due to showing them, then as they weren't shown anymore they were desexed, which means that most of them were a few years old before they were done. Even before our showing days we had

dogs desexed and never had any who changed.

I haven't heard of this either. My girl was desexed at 6 months and she never developed aggression, still her sooky smoochy self.

Favourite treat: Looooves sausages and Roast chicken pieces. She will do ANYTHING for either of those hehe

Favourite toy: Mr Stingray - He makes bubble sounds when she chews on him.

aww, Love the photos!

I worked in a shelter years ago and worked in the puppies area. Some of the reasons were

"Puppy digs holes" - Puppy was about 12 wks old

"Puppy chews and bites" - Puppy was around 12 - 14wks old

"Puppy jumps" - Again around 12 weeks old.

I could not believe the amount of people that just thought their PUPPY would be completely trained at this age with no work on their part. grrrr

Omfg why are people so dumb... *sigh* That girl, I'm glad I don't know her.

What a beautiful dog, I hope he finds a home

Me too Can't believe she expects money for him.

That is awful My thoughts are with her dogs.

Beautiful Photos

I have a 2.5yr old Female desexed German shepherd and she gets along beautifully with my sisters young Female Desexed Samoyed who is currently living with us at the moment but with her 4yr old Female Desexed Keeshond there are massive issues and fighting.

I have only had to put down my last dog Minka and although it was the hardest decision I have ever made I was with her through the whole process. I knew she would become stressed without any familiar faces there and had to be there for her.
