    Collie cross digging through the carpet

    Sounds good to me.. well done. Kindest responses usually work best. Hope Skye forgets about digging now! I would still keep the boxes there for a few weeks if it were me.

    Collie cross digging through the carpet

    Coincidentally, this happened with my whippet recently. It was during a thunderstorm!!! - maybe something has unsettled your collie, similar to this. Subsequently, the whippet would scratch up the carpet for no specific reason and it began to be a habit. What I did (and so far, it has cured...

    Dealing with severe allergies in a rescue dog

    Forgive me butting in here. My ears pricked up when I read your message. It seems to me that if the symptom is solely chewing back paws... this must be a contact allergy, so unlikely that food would have any effect. I take it you do mean the actual PADS? I have had whippets for many many...

    Many Tears Whippet Needing Home

    I don't look on here any longer as the majority of dogs mentioned needing homes are greyhounds and not whippets. I have always loved greyhounds, but can no longer read about them. My whippet, who was on lead by my side, was killed by 4 greyhounds who had neither muzzles nor collars on and I...

    Urgent Advice Required Injury

    If I were in your position, I would use Cut n heal.... becuase it heals from the inside and keeps infection at bay. As the wound is now old... it would need cutting the skin before stitching, which would involve more stretching than it would, even if it had been done immediately. I honestly...

    Advice Needed Please - Scared Dog

    What a sad situation. Wonderful that Angel has a kind home AND dogs at home who will probably give her confidence as time goes on. I go with Fee Fee, in that Saluki's are naturally aloof even when they have had good upbringing, but one who may have been abused, will most likely never be...

    Inflammatory Bowel Disease

    Good luck with Drew, I too, have a whippet with IBD - some can be 'managed' with dietary help and supplements... some have to have harder drugs like steroids. There is a group/list, who consist solely of owners of dogs with IBD and their knowledge and 'hands on' advice is very very wide, and...

    Name Needed

    You could do worse than look on this site............. just choose which letter you would like his name to begin with. http://www.findakitten.co.uk/kittennames_S.html Sometimes the oldies are still the best..... Samba, Sox, etc..... Hope you pick something nice anyway.

    Pain Killers
