    Breeding - things to consider?

    In my opinion, two years old is way too young to be breeding. Some will say that’s poppycock but just because it’s been done before doesn’t make it right. At two years old, she’s not fully grown and developed herself yet and the stress and strain of sustaining and raising puppies could cause...

    Road rage

    Blimey, that made me feel quite sick watching that. Utterly disgusting but sadly crimes committed in a car never seem to carry harsh sentences. I really hope the horse and owner gets some justice for these actions.

    Just had to share - GSD people

    Sorry I couldn't resist, I just think she is the most stunning looking dog. It does say best as an only dog but says she's is social with other dogs.

    Anyone taken in end of life / old dogs from rescues?

    Yes, lots, that's why I've had sooooooo many dogs because I've lost them relatively quickly. There's nothing special you need to do, other than be prepared for them to take longer to settle. If it's been a bereavement (for them), there will be some element of confusion for a while as well but...

    Deleting social media

    Let's face it, all social media is fine but you have to keep it in its place. If you get lured into thinking people are living fantastically brilliant lives because of what they post, then jealousy might just eat you up and that's never a good thing. I think you also need to be fully aware of...

    If you re-homed/rescued a dog, where did you get it from?

    Where do you bath your dog?

    Willow has a shampoo and set every time she goes swimming :) I do however have outdoor hot and cold taps so they would always be bathed outside if needed.

    Can I assume none of you give rawhide treats?

    Mine have nylabones and they last ages and ages. Chester is a serious chewer at the moment so they’re a very good alternative to chewing my furniture :)

    Help - complex diet issue!

    Yep, it’s cheap and cheerful but I’ve fed it to most of my dogs on and off for donkeys years and they have all thrived on it. Current girl Willow is a chappie lady because she has bladder stone tendencies. She has a cranberry tablet every other day and I never change her diet and she hasn’t...
