    best coat to keep spaniel clean?

    I also swear by Equafleece dog suits with all the legs.

    Kibble for Toy Breeds

    I feed Gentle cold pressed in the small bite version. Both my dogs do great on it (cocker and dachshund), and I think it’s great value for a premium cold pressed. Order direct from them.

    Puppy progress!

    He’s so gorgeous - the smooshy face 😍 Very interested to hear how he grows and what he’s like to train and work with. Braccos are definitely on my ‘intrigued by’ list of possible future dogs!

    Irresponsible Owners

    Hi. It’s me. I’m the irresponsible owner today. Was meeting our friend and her springer for a walk today - say hello, let the cocker off his lead to say hi (they’re his favourites) and like an absolute loon he instead does a 180 and sprints 100m to say hi to a dog we don’t know - that I had...

    Irresponsible Owners

    How is using your shoe in anyway better or less effort than a bag? 😭 That’s just so weird/gross.

    House training

    They’re just a set of bells you can hang on your door (fancier options possibly also available), and if you ring them before going out, and then encourage a touch and open the door when they do - can be used to help give dogs a clear way of saying ‘let me out please!’. Better guidance and actual...

    House training

    Strict alarms during the day every hour, and after doing anything (and/or a house line so she’s never just popping under the table) and a 2am alarm for night trips that you can gradually move later until she’s going through the night. Going with them and big praise for going outside, etc. For...

    Ears -wwyd

    My cocker gets yeasty ears on some foods - changing him back to a food I know he’s fine on clears it up alongside a course of cleaning and drops. I’ve also found that having him on nutripaws prebiotic has helped his intermittent general itchiness and anal glands too. I don’t think I’m just...

    Eventing Syndicate

    100% this - in fact I was trying to find similar just a couple of weeks ago as I would much prefer to support and follow an eventer. But I would definitely need it to be the kind of cost the big racing clubs are - rather than £100s a month. I wouldn’t mind a monthly fee, just not a big ‘un.

    Hacking to XC

    I used to hack to Tweseldown all the time 20-25-ish years ago (either to the actual course, or hacking over the MOD land). But only from Albany Farm (which is now I believe built over from Zebon Copse expanding). I’m pretty sure we also used to do it from Dogmersfield near the Queen’s Head too...

    Owning Spaniels - What's it like?

    And I 100% agree with this. Always ready to go - but equally, if you teach an off switch - mine does sleep for most of the day, just if I’m doing something, he’s trying to join in. If you want to do stuff with them and train new and silly things in minutes, and your life to probably revolve...
