We put our Christmas tree up yesterday we have small red Christmas stockings which i fill with sweets oops i put one to low and Edie took it off the tree along with a bauble
Every time Edie has a tick I seem to find one on myself. I remove hers no trouble, but I found mine the next day on my thigh. The little sod climbed up my trousers and embeded itself. Thought I'd removed it until 10days later. Gosh my leg was red and swollen. I had antibiotics. Her next tick...
He looks like he is enjoying the water. I take Edie to a water park she is kept on a 10 metre long line absolutely loves water. Last time she swam she didnt see the turtle sat on the floating log i did!
We have Edie a xbreed who is whistled trained she will turn when whistled and come back. We visit the coast frequently Edie and I were on the beach recently i never let her off her extending lead because its a nature reserve. But late one evening there was nothing around and was toying wether to...
Many years ago our family dog was a labrador. It must have been around Christmas time as I had baked sweet mince pies. I left them on the kitchen unit, whilst I took home my sons girlfriend. Our dog pulled them off the unit and ate all 18 of them. On my return I was furious unaware currants and...
We have been visiting our caravan since Wednesday at Spurn point lovely weather lots of beach walks. Edie has to stay on a long line as usually seals resting on the beach. The best sight for me were 2 swallows thats it summer is on its way :)
Its lucky for me that £5 notes are now plastic because had it been the paper notes she would have shredded it. If she isnt ripping plants up she tramples on them instead. All part of the fun in owning a dog :)
My day off work got up only to see Edie running around with something in her mouth, then I realised it was a £5 note which she had stolen from my husbands bedside table. Seeing as what she has in her mouth is 100% hers, I just waited until she realised it wasn't a game then dropped it!! My day...
We also have a guardy dog i have read all the messages which you have had but our grandchildren have grown up with edie they know not to interfere with her when she is eating or disturb her when she is in her basket. I will say that its not easy but i love her and now 2 and 1/2 years old she is...
We trained edie on a long line and a 10 metre retracting lead with a whistle and smelly sausage it took about 6 weeks to 1st take off retracting lead then long line gosh that was nerve racking when we released her she ran and ran but when whistled as long as no birds around came straight back...
Edie isn't lucky with stinging things after all the crops had been cut last year we were on a morning walk she disturbed a wasps nest she began rolling and scratching her coat was long so I picked them out came home immediately when I removed her harness she still had many underneath...
Thank you ive just looked up what plantain is and i recognise it at least i will know how to help next time. She was clipped yesterday so her coat is short i only short nettles her reaction was instant
Whilst out walking edie today she became irritated stopped to lick her paws and tummy then limped for a few minutes. I then realised she had run through stinging nettles, i there anything i can ease the irritation if it happens again
I think as a caring dog owner we know in our heart when its time to let go but its a tough step to take. I have been there with cats and our dog i once left it to long and had many many regrets but i have never made that error again, we had our labrador euthanased at home she licked the vets...
I do comb edie well correction i have the brush and comb in my hand whilst she sits on the sofa with me. She loves her ears combing but thats it trying combing her legs and you could be minus a finger! I bathe her to keep her coat soft but then she rolls in anything stinky
Edie's groomer only clips dogs with special needs! And seeing as she is a guardy dog you would have to be careful. She looks fantastic after being clipped but i would imagine she growls throughout the grooming. When she see's her groomer whilst out walking she gets excited and cant wait to...
Oh that made me laugh:) trouble is i have to engage edie once she is off lead usually with throwing the ball and its just my luck for it to land in a sloppy dollop
