For well more than a third of my life, Jonna has been by my side. But my lovely little princess, who loved treats and to please me, who I never really needed to train to be well-behaved, whose lead I years ago could hand over to my youngest nephew S out on long forest walks and tell him that...

Some might remember my thread from September 2020, There is something wrong with Blomma, where it turned out she have Diabetes Insipidus. To put it simply, it has nothing to do with insulin, it involves a substance from the pituitary gland, and the kidneys, with the symptoms increased thirst...

I was supposed to have done a No water for 12 hours, out to pee late in the night, up at 06 to get a morning pee sample-test with Blomma on Friday, due to her Diabetes Insipidus, see this thread, but Jonna, 15 years, was a bit more tired than usual on Wednesday evening, didn't eat Thursday's...

Not expecting anyone to be able to offer an epiphany, I only wanted to write it down, and get it a little bit off my chest. Blomma is 12, spayed (so no uterus = not pyometra), and less than 3 weeks ago she started to drink more water. She has gone from drinking up to max around 1 litre per day...

Happened to see this short video on Instagram, and had to share:

I've been up on our roof to fix it from leaking, came in all sweaty, and decided to take a quick shower, before having something to eat. For some reason (possibly laziness), I decided to only take a dress + slippers with me to the shower, no towel, and thought **If the dogs can shake dry, so can...

Was there without the dogs today, Thursday, and overheard that there was quite a few of the spectators which didn't speak Swedish. Which made me think that I perhaps should mention here on HHO, that if anyone happens to be in Gothenburg for the FEI European Championships, and look at the...

Blomma have one less tooth, but I'm a bit proud over that both the veterinarian who checked her before the tooth operation, and the veterinarian who did the operation, said that she have very clean teeth for her age (she's 9 years). But sadly you can tell that her teeth is very well used (she...

Late last night I was checking the teeth on all my 3 bitches, and discovered that Blomma have broken a tooth, so I set my alarm to go up early to phone my veterinarian. Woke up around 1 hour before my alarm went off, because the itchy bites I've gotten the last few days needed some soothing...

A short recall video from todays walk: https://youtu.be/_fSdpje2n84 If you're on either Facebook or Flickr, this is an older recall video I've done out on a walk: https://www.facebook.com/FinnishLapphund/videos/10207029321083492/ Recall by Ylva, on Flickr Walked past a...

Before New Year’s eve, I thought I should share the things that I can remember, knows, which could help owners with dogs that is afraid of fireworks. *Perhaps this is only something relevant to Spitz-breed owners, but I check so that my dogs coat/fur is smooth, and not static. If it isn't...

I suspect that it doesn't make it more practical, but I happened to see this on an internet page, and thought it looked so cute, that I had to share it: :D

Congratulation! Scott Fraser won a silver in the 3,9 km. sprint for men, World Orienteering Championships, Vuokatti, Finland. The winner was Mårten Boström, Finland, and Jonas Leandersson, Sweden, got the bronze. And Tessa Hill, GBR, came fifth in the 3,4 km. sprint for women, where...

There is a post in the Club House which makes it clear that some HHO:ers have missed their messages from HHO Admin, so I'm posting this reminder, the important parts of the HHO Admin message as I can recall it was: Our avatars might disappear when the forum changes, so all users with avatars...

Stumbled across a few photos on Facebook and the internet, mostly funny, but WARNING, the why "barefoot is a bad idea" is probably not what you think. Even though I've heard people talk on HHO about wrapping your horse in bubble wrap, I didn't think they meant literally... "Never...

I did a search on YouTube videos with Akhal-Teke horse races the other day, and I came across what I presume is a Russian video (for some, to me unknown, reason the sound doesn't seem to work?!), I now can't get it out of my head and feel that I have to ask if anybody on HHO knows if there is...

Miss Candy posted a question on another thread and I didn't want to hijack that thread, so I'm posting my answer in this new thread. My view on fashionable crossbreeds is that I wouldn't touch them with a barge pole. Because my experience of such breeders is that they live in la la la la...

To try and cut a long story short, I needed a break from internet and logged out from HHO, however the break got a little longer than I planned because my computer died and since I put almost all my money on my dogs and cats (still 3 bitches and 2 cats, so nothing has changed there) it took a...

Whoopee MurphysMinder, you've gotten an avatar! Who is it? :D

A legend says that Allah created the Arabian horse of the wind. When the horse later came to Allah and complained of thirst in the heat, sand in the nostrils and sore feet, Allah created the camel and wondered if the vain horse had preferred to look like that. The horse snorted in horror and...

I knew I shouldn't have looked but I got curious on which "breeds" one of those hybrid dog registries would register, though I didn't get that far, number five on the list = Rottaf! Have you guessed the cross yet? If not, Rottaf = Afghan hound x Rottweiler! There...

Also posted in Soapbox, thanks to my nephews mobile phone, I can show you all my lovely bitches on video (and I have probably yet again showed my somewhat inferiority feelings about them not being completely silent by what I call the videos in the clickable text, but at least I posted links to...

And it is me who has the problem not the dogs, though the problem involve dogs. After my first response on this thread by chestnuttymare Update on dobe and more help needed please , where I mentioned that I try to stay away from threads involving problems with barking dogs, I then today...

Thanks to my oldest nephew and his new mobile phone camera (some photos taken a while after Christmas but he didn't have the USB cable with him then, so couldn't download them into my computer until today), I can finally show you my dogs and cats! My three girls. Jonna's (breed...

I wrote on Patches thread, were she worried about that her new puppy might help clean her cats litter trays ( Puppies and kitty litter trays ), that I had a hooded litter box but without a swinging door and now I've found an internet site with "my" type of hooded litter box. I have the Maxi but...

I realised I still had the tab open with the "Great DanexElephant" for sale that there was a post about the other day ( http://www.horseandhound.co.uk/forums/showflat.php/Cat/0/Number/5155805/page/0/fpart/all/vc/1 ) and had decided to close the tab, when I saw the button saying "Dogs", which...

Sorry pointless post but I vaguely remember the HHO replies last winter after the footage from Iceland (they had a competition on the ice and when too many horses was on a too small surface in one of the starts, the ice broke but all horses was saved), saying that they hoped people would learn...

Several things have kept me away from internet for a few months, it began with that I was having trouble with the internet connection using a dongle, so I decided that I might as well have a little break and then other things happened that has kept me away. One of the reasons has fur and is...

(Sorry, I know this is not a doggy post but I don't know which parts of HHO that Murphy88 usually visits, so I thought that in here I'm at least sure that MurphysMinder will find it, once she comes back from the birthday celebrating.) Murphy88! Ps. I hope it's not the wrong...
