I had a look at www.allaboutdogfood.co.uk but although you can select wet food with chunks rather than pate, it doesnt say the size of the chunks. I'd still be tempted to look there first and if there's something you are interested in, contact the makers. But, I wondered - could it be down to...

Everything crossed for a simple solution.

And, heart in mouth time, he's just had a fit of the zoomies :eek:

It does sound like it might be resource guarding. @JudyN is our RG guru so hopefully will have advice, but please get, and read, the book Mine! by Jean Donaldson. There's also more help here - Resource guarding I'd just like to add that behaviour can escalate to a nip if a dog feels we have...

Mr F and I spoke about this earlier. Rather than an age test, we thought a sort of social awareness test might be better. We need something to weed out 'I'm voting for this party because my father, grandfather, great grandfather, mates do'. In some places, if you put the right colour of rosette...

Timber was 15 a few weeks ago. Today, he did a decent walk, maybe ½ a mile. He relaxed in the afternoon but he has just been out for a wander round the (decent sized) garden. He had a bit of a run towards the back door, then changed his mind and ran right round the garden again. Just because...

It would help if you could add more detail, because finding the right way to change her behaviour really depends on her reason for doing it. For example, is she hyped up, excitable, does she think it's a game? Or is she worried, uncomfortable with strangers? Is she resource guarding you...

Is anyone else finding this? Pages are taking ages to load. It's only this forum, other websites are fine.

He's like a mini Timber!

I don't think it is, they made one post many years ago, I think it was to do with having to move home (I only had a quick glance, to check).

Three litters all at once doesn't sound like good practice in breeding. This is someone who is doing it for the money, rather than to produce well bred, good examples of a breed (which is what good breeders aspire to do).

Hi, welcome on board. Do you mean an avatar picture? You should see a little head and shoulders icon near the top right hand side. Click on that, then Account Details and you can get the option to add an avatar image there. You should also be able to change your user name if you want to use Blitz.

Threr was a time when we were in Prague (I think) and Mr F went to a loo. To be fair, it was in an underpass so there were several exits. But I not exaggerating when I say I had to wait 45 minutes. I mean, how long does it take to check four exits?

Sorry, no; but hopefully someone with better ideas will be online soon - i just don't want you to think we haven't seen your question.
