    Transitioning back to dry

    I personally think Burns is a bit overpriced for what it is. You're paying quite a lot for what is basically flavoured rice. I did this search on www.allaboutdogfood.co.uk (I guessed 12 kilos for his weight, you might want to tweak that). https://www.allaboutdogfood.co.uk/the-dog-food-directory

    Valentine's

    We are in Keswick, it's very dog-friendly. We really like it here.

    Miles and friends - for poodle and labradoodle fans :-)

    You take some lovely photos, you really capture the moments well.

    Valentine's

    To add to the great day. We have been out for a meal in a dog-friendly restaurant. They even offer dog dinners, so as a treat, we ordered one for Timber. It was a whole roast chicken breast with mashed potato and gravy. And only £2.10! He couldn't eat it all, so there's some left for tomorrow...

    We went into a pet shop earlier to buy Timber some treats, and they were giving away Valentine's bandanas.

    Pet Insurance for older dogs

    To be honest, if he needs to go to the vet, then his condition exists now and therefore it is pre-existing. I'm sorry you are in this position, my dog is also a senior and I decided to change his insurer last year as the one I had became really expensive. There are quite a few in the region of...

    Stuck in perpetual correction cycle with 9 week puppy

    Chocolate helps - obviously for you, not him. And gin.

    Stuck in perpetual correction cycle with 9 week puppy

    Please look at the Toilet Training link I put into post #2. If you go out, and he hasn't toileted after five minutes, bring him back in but don't take your eyes off him. Stay near the door. If he tries to toilet, scoop him up and get him out. If he doesn't try, take him back out again after five...

    Stuck in perpetual correction cycle with 9 week puppy

    I'm afraid he sounds like a fairly typical puppy. Rather than thinking in terms of correcting him, which implies he has done something wrong, try to remember he is just a tiny baby, and use management and prevention. Are you sure he is getting enough naps? He sounds a bit like a fractious...

    Looking for some help in trying my dog-friendly places app and giving feedback

    I've had a quick look as I travel a lot with my dog, and I know a lot of places that are dog friendly (so I was able to see how well populated your site is). And that's where it was a bit lacking. It looks okay so far, but in the places I've visited over the last few months, most of the dog...

    Spinger Spaniel Agression towards other dogs

    I think changed behaviour after neutering is more of a concern in younger dogs - in older ones, their behaviour patterns are more established. Good luck.

    Loose Stools

    Oh, I meant me; not you - your experience absolutely is helpful. Sorry for the misunderstanding @arealhuman

    Loose Stools

    I don't want to stray off topic but that must have been disappointing @arealhuman . I'm glad he's on the mend now though.

    16yr old doing toilet indoors

    He's gorgeous, I do love a scruffy dog like him (you'd perhaps guess that from my photos ...)

    Warning for members in Scotland

    Someone just pointed out to me that it's from 2021 but it was shared by a local trainer so it may be happening again.
