My close friend has a golden. He is the most wonderful dog in lots of ways - so charming and entertaining on walks, but cuddly and calm in the house. He is honestly adorable.
However - he is epileptic, very anxious, and has dodgy hips/legs.
His many, many good points outweigh the (sometimes...
I got a very comfy pair for very cheap from Bridleway. Fleece lined and sticky bum. I got a small and they fit me (although I’m an 8-10 and the small is apparently 6-8)
That may well be the case but I personally believe that the use of horses escalated the situation.
I don’t think horses should be put in a position when they could be hurt/traumatised, they didn’t choose to put themselves there after all.
But at the same time, I absolutely condemn people...
I have skimmed this thread and have read some very eloquent posts - far more so than anything I could write. It’s a tricky subject for me - my friend was there and saw no violence and it was very peaceful (she left before it kicked off). My understanding is that the horses were deployed, at a...
Mostly they love each other! Ours our Netherland dwarves with a wild grandparent (we think) so they’re fiesty!! They hate being picked up but like being stroked. And they’re always first to investigate new things!!
I could have written this! We have two brothers and got them as babies and couldn’t re-bond them after they were neutered. We had to send them away to a professional bonding lady who bonded them for us.
Since them they have had squabbles an we’ve had to re-bond. Sometimes quite severe ones, eg...
I had an older section D on full loan and I adored him. I was fairly novicey and a little nervous and he looked after me always. (By that I mean - has been riding a loooonnggg time at a very good riding school but never my own)
He was a bit bonkers, and more nervous/novice friends were a bit...
I don’t really understand...standards in the US are objectively worse. Have a quick google if you are interested. To relax our food standards to allow more imports with the USA would, in my opinion, be a bad thing. There is a reason we don’t see any American produce in our supermarkets, but we...
I mean...If other countries are ‘so much worse’ then our standards are still ‘so much higher’ ?.
Doesn’t mean there isn’t room for improvement, or that people don’t slip through the net, but they really are much better than the US.
Oh my god Nudibranch, I’m so sorry, that’s absolutely horrifying. I’m starting to get more and more apprehensive about this. I did post on a rabbit forum and got such conflicting advice...it’s so hard to know what to do, but I think a male/female pair might be the best option 😔
