This is where I leave this forum

So I understand, no porcine insulin. No porcine or bovine heart valves. No vaccination, which has been cultured in eggs. Many other drugs which could only be tested on animals. Try working on a Childrens Ward with dying children. This has gone a long way from being a Dog Forum.

Well I sincerely hope you never get cancer.

Dudley very rarely has the lead fully extended it is a three metre one.. He tends to stick to my side except on the field if he knows the dogs. In the street he has an ordinary lead. He tends not to approach any dog he doesn't know. Today we went to the Park. I am very aware he is not keen on...

I let Dudley choose his walks. Most mornings he likes the field followed by the pub. Afternoons he is a bit random and depending on what direction he chooses leaving the house I guide him in the general direction. Our long walks involve the woods, the canal with a stop at the Bistro, or the...

My groomer tells me she often has problems with very matted dogs which have to be almost shaved to get rid of the mats and tangles.

Unfortunately I have to agree re puppies in flats. My granddaughter discovered this when Dudley got a little older and her circumstances changed. I have had him from 22 weeks. She agrees he is better with having a garden and we are retired so he gets lots of walks and attention.

Dudley is a small fluffy crossbreed but he gets lots of exercise. We have a play every day too with stimulating games. As well as four small dogs on the field this morning we had two cockers, a Springer, two labradors and a St Bernard. I doubt any of the cockers go hunting, or the retrievers do...

Caught Crufts for the first time tonight. Why do the handlers hold the leads so tight the dogs heads are pulled up unaturally.

Went to Yorkshire moors last September. Husband still suffering with his sciatica. So Dudley and me roamed the moors for hours. Absolutely loved it.
