  1. I have purchased two beds from Kennel Solutions as well. The beds are well worth the money and I also found their customer service to be excellent! Kennel Solutions
  2. Moselle I am so sorry that you had to let your girl go. I am glad that Sophie did not suffer and you made the kindest and hardest decision we as pet owners have to make. At least she went off to the bridge with her Mum by her side in peace and love. Rest easy girl. Be kind to yourself Moselle.
  3. Lovemesideways - so nice of your boy to share his delicacy!
  4. I have used Pookinuk many times and have found that they are usually very quick with sending their orders out and responding to inquiries. Last time, however, when I ordered from them there was no mention that they were out of the large bag of one of the types of EPH I ordered. They sent out a smaller bag (charged me for the big bag though) and promised to send me another smaller bag once they received more stock. Well 6kg doesn't go far and a few weeks later we were completely out. I couldn't source another supplier as everyone was having issues so had to resort to another brand all together. (Dog wasn't impressed at al!). I emailed the company prior to running out and received no response(which is unusual they had always been prompt in replying or calling in the past). In the end I rang them and they agreed to send out another variety of EPH which they had in stock. I have since reordered with them, more EPH, and I noticed at the time of putting my order through the website did state that they were out of stock with EPH and delivery could be expected to take up to 3 weeks. I received an email on Friday to state that they had shipped my order out. I expect that it should arrive on Monday. So hopefully your order will be here soon Huski. It does make it difficult and worrisome when responses to email/calls go unanswered.
  5. I want to reiterate Hanna's suggestion. Pre-dog, I walked to/from work, uni etc with headphones in as a matter of course...until the afternoon I didn't hear a car following behind me and the next thing I know some malefactor is pulling me into the car. Luckily I got away relatively unscathed but if I'd been more aware of my surroundings, the whole incident could have been avoided. How terrifying for you Sydoo!! I no longer walk with my ipod either after a fright, as I too am worried I won't hear something I might need to.
  6. I have floating timber floors. They are covered in scratches from the dogs! If I could choose I would have non slip tiles or slate. We had slate in another house and it never looked dirty it was wonderful! I must say that I do love the fact that the floors are easy to vacuum/sweep up dog hair, so that is a plus.
  7. I am sorry that such a scary thing happened to you. He sounds like a major creep and I am not surprised that you now don't feel safe out walking on your own. I had a frightening experience early one morning whilst out walking my boy. I got this gut feeling that I was being followed only to turn around and see two blokes running down the hill after me! (I had seen them up on the road a few moments beforehand but didn't realise that they would be an issue as they were walking in the opposite direction to me.)The only choice I had was to walk on into the park in the dark, or turn and walk towards them and the road. Thankfully they backed off once I turned around and started to walk towards them with Kody. Unfortunately after that incident I do not feel safe walking through that park unless it is daylight now. Which is a shame as it was a really great walk for Kody and I. We have since found somewhere else to walk, however I do not enjoy the early morning walks like I used to, as it is still dark and I find I am on edge. I hope that you and Shyla are able to shake this incident off and begin to enjoy your walks again.
  8. i used to do Kody in the bath but he hated it and so would try to climb out all the time. We would end up with hair and water everywhere! I was stoked when I found the DIY hydrobath at the local car wash, so much easier! I am lucky, he doesn't get smelly, so he only gets a wash when he has been up to no good and played neck deep in mud out at Mum and Dads.
  9. What a great idea! Will definitely be putting a few together. Thanks for the info.
  10. Glad to hear that Cody is starting to feel better, even if it is slowly. I hope he continues to improve and is back to his normal self soon.
  11. Exactly. I've been known to fast track it down the road dragging a sniffing dog with a puckering bum so that he doesn't drop at an awkward or inappropriate place but that's about it. What's easily deposited is just as easily collected by a hooman hand in a plastic bag! Yep I am the same. I never have a problem with Kody going in public as long as it is not out the front of an outdoor eatery etc and if he is looking like he needs to go then we run up a bit further to somewhere more appropriate and private. Have you every tried to 'hold' it. It's very uncomfortable and I wouldn't want my dog to feel that way. I mean we are out on a walk to enjoy ourselves after all. I always carry bags with me so it is no drama picking up after him (and I really despise those peeps who don't bother to pick up but that's another issue). I can't say I am particularly thrilled though when we have just headed out for a lengthy walk round the lake and he has to go. Means I get to carry a warm stinky bag for an hour and half, but hey it doesn't happen too often.
  12. Hi Lofty I hope your boy is starting to feel better. It is absolutely awful when you have no idea what is making them feel unwell. I know you have an appointment with your regular vet tomorrow, but in the meantime perhaps you could call the emergency vet and have a chat and see what they think? Is Cody taking water at all? ETA perhaps you could try mixing the chicken broth in with his water? If he refuses plain water I would be taking him back to the emergency vet. ETA again - Oh I just saw your post which states he isn't interested in the broth. Perhaps a phone call the vet would help. he has picked up by now and it's only a tummy upset. I hope Cody picks up soon. xx
  13. I don't have a dishwasher so I soak mine in a bit of hot washing up water. I then give it a scrub with one of those baby bottle brushes and they come up nice and clean.
  14. What a lovely story! Birdy and Chester are such lovely dogs, and so trusting. I loved watching the pair being reunited brought tears to my eyes. I hope this lovely family have all found loving forever homes. Thanks for sharing.
