Thanks Satinbaze, I'll give Natural Instinct a ring in the morning and hopefully they can help. I just want some hard facts - I find that a lot of people are a bit evangelical about diet and it's hard to get to the actual proven facts. I just want to do the right thing for my dog based on her...

Hi guys, I posted a few months ago for advice on swapping to raw. I got some great advice and we started to slowly make the switch but then she got ill again and we've finally got a definitive diagnosis and wonder whether this changes what we should be feeding her. The vet finally (!!!)...

Wow, Kingy, just read your post again and it contains so much info it must have taken you ages to write. Thanks very much!

Wow, thanks everyone for taking so much time to reply to me! Much appreciated! By the way, the vet said that the excessive weeing is due to the steroids. You'd have thought they might have told me that they might have this effect considering how worried I've been! Will digest all the info...

Hi 5bs, Thanks for your reply. Your dog sounds very lucky to have such a dedicated owner. You've obviously gone to great lengths to make him more comfortable. It sounds like he is suffering from exactly the same thing as our dog - the noises her tummy makes are unbelievable! I probably...

Hi Guys, About switching to raw feeding...... As ever with anything involving dogs or horses there is tonnes of conflicting advice out there. I just wanted to check that our plan of action is feasible...so here goes. Two dogs, both jack russells, both with conditions that make them prime...

Thanks for your comments guys, we have been taking her out around town in our arms and she seems to be getting a little bit bolder. Puppy classes start in a couple of weeks so she should get even bolder then. She is such a little star, we love having her around! As requested, puppy belly...

You are right! I am on to it.....

Thanks for the reassurance, Cayla. I am sure you are right. We have been taking her out in our arms to get her used to new things and she does seem to be improving (looking around rather than shivering and cowering). She is an absolute star - she already sits, retrieves and has stopped...

A little update.....sorry I havent posted sooner, everything has been a bit hectic! I have only just found my USB for my camera so I will post some piccies tonight...! Cayla, thank you so much for your puppy guide, it has been the best bit of info we've received! We are going to send a donation...

Sorry for the late reply, work has been a bit hectic! Oh my god, your Jacks are absolutely gorgeous!! I think our little girl will look like your little black and tan, maybe just a bit more woolly! Thank you very much for the offer of the harness - strangely enough a friend has also offered us...

Thanks for everybodies replies! And thank you, thank you Cayla for the Puppy Guide - I will PM you tonight! It makes me feel so much better being able to pop the odd silly question on here knowing I will get some sensible advice! Promise I will post lots (LOTS!) of piccies..... she is...

Great idea and something I was already thinking about doing! I'm so excited!

I think I might be asking how to post piccies next.... We spotted the blingy collars but dont think my partner would be happy with one of those!! I might have to go and have another look - I must admit, we were a bit bamboozled! What is everybodies opinion on puppy playpens? I expect we...

Thanks for your reply! And thank you very much for the offer of the collar - I didnt expect that! How much do you want for it? What sort of harness does your other Jack have? I agree about the Kong paste - there seemed to be lots of wierd ingredients in it so we decided to leave it until we'd...
