Our good luck ran out this last week. Molly started itching again. Just back from the vets now. Another cytopoint injection and fingers crossed that’s it until Oct/Nov We got 18 weeks out of the last one and she usuallly doesn’t scratch in the cooler months.

I’m feeling super lucky ( touch wood) Molly is still not itching and it’s almost 3 months since her injection. Hopefully we’ll get to the cooler months with no issues. I find she doesn’t scratch during the winter months.

Oh how sad. Tallie looks very beautiful. Such a special puss, she sounds like she was great company. Loss is always hard. Take care. My thoughts are with you. sweet Tallie

If you’re a grumpy old biddie BDJ then so am I. Your comments were well put. Agree whole heartedly with all that you said.

I do agree with you snook and I do understand in certain situations it is best to take them in. I can see both sides to this but in order for it to work all dog owners need to be compliant with the rules and there stands the problem. How to enforce rules.

I’m totally against rules and privileges being changed just because of some idiots doing the wrong thing. We’ve seen this many times especially in areas we love to camp. Areas where once you could take dogs but now can’t. And it is wrong. But as much as I love my pets I don’t really see the need to take them “ shopping” to Bunnings or anywhere else for that matter. Aside of the fact that incidents like this do happen, I can also see the side that there are many people who are frightened of animals,restrained or not. Not long after Molly’s attack we were in Petbarn, where you are allowed to t

I agree with you. There is always some a—-hole who ruins good things for everyone else. But as you say if idiots can’t play by the rules then privileges must be stopped.

This makes me truly upset. Agree sandgrubber, the owner shouldn’t have been let in with the dog off lead. My heart honestly goes out to the poor owners of the little dog.

Really sorry to hear your sad news. Your little oldies always sound like they get the very best of care from you and it’s hard to lose one but four in twelve months is devastating. I really do feel for you. Take care. My thoughts are with you and Sooty also.

Hey everyone, We have just bought a tandem kayak which we will be taking on our camping holidays in future. We always camp beside waterways and would love to explore them more closely. Obviously Molly travels with us and will be kayaking with us. I’m looking at buying a life jacket for her. I’ve had a quick look online ( in lockdown so can’t visit shops) Prices seem to vary a lot so I was just wondering if anyone had ever bought and used one, and what I should take into consideration when I do eventually buy one.

Sorry to hear of your sad news. My thoughts are with you

Sorry to hear the sad news. 18 is a good age.

As we all know with some it’s very difficult to know when the time is right. Those who have followed Pepsi s story know that sometimes it can come as a total shock as to how bad they are. The vet assured us Pepsi only had 1 - 2 days left and yet we really didn’t think she was that bad. With my dogs though it became obvious that the time had come. I’d like to think we chose the right moment. Animals can’t talk so like Pepsi we don’t really know what amount of pain they are in. And I guess we just watch them closely and try to get the decision as right as we can.

Thinking of Sooty and you also. Hope she can make it through this.

Three strikes, definitely out !! Feel for the dog as once again it shows irresponsible owners. Getting out once and killing a dog is bad enough but still able to escape its yard twice more is just unforgivable.
