    Simpsons premium

    I’m digging back about 10 years but we used to sell Burns Pork and Potato for dogs who needed to avoid beet pulp, but is only 18.5% protein. Around £49 for 12kg.

    Very worried about my friend's dog

    Well done on finding a way forward Errin, she sounds like a very clever girl who’s going to try you, love you and be loved. You’ve done an amazing thing for your late friend. 🙂

    The deep chest causes the problem, they have to kind of screw under things. Can you teach her to jump on command instead? Teach to jump over your coat laid over a low obstacle? Or would you prefer if she didn’t know how to jump?

    Puppy 'must haves'

    Dog coats!
