I've used extendable leads for 40 years on various dogs. My dogs were all perfectly well able to walk to heal although I don't see the point in taking a dog for a walk if it's just going to be walking at heel. my dogs are both hunting breeds and the extendable lead gives them the chance to...

You know yourself as an athlete there is a big difference between a jog and a sprint when it comes to your breathing and control. If he seems overly out of breath slow things down oh and stick throwing is a risky game...

Id have said the same. We started out by playing ball ( just rolling it gently) in our driveway with Murphy . Then we walked just the length of our hedge. Then to the neighbour who he knew and she had treats ready for him... It made the world less scary and got him used to his harness and a...

@JudyN So we know you like bugs, do you like the habitat as well? We are replacing windows and found this long abandoned wasp nest.. I love the complex engineering of it.

These are a couple of shots Ive taken, none of them are with a flash I like the effect I get with my little torch. https://imgur.com/lUWO2DC

Sometimes I use a flash but a lovely way to photograph fungi is actually to light them with a torch. I will have a look for a couple of photos..

Look you asked. I replied. Ive read through your posts and it just sounds like everything suggested is met with ' we tried that' it wont work because' I cant because,,, etc . Stop focusing and ignore are two very different things. But have it your way, I wont reply to anything else you ask ...

Of course every dog is different but if they have you and familiar routines and beds etc I dont see why they wouldnt adapt in fact they might enjoy the new adventures to be had at each of the homes..

Reading through some of your other posts/replies I knew that was going to be your line. every piece of advice gets slapped down I never said ignore him. If you dont want advice dont ask for it. .

Ive always found my dogs adjust to my sleep pattern. 40+ years and loads of different dogs.. So Id say stop focusing on the dog and focus on yourself, teach yourself a couple of meditation methods to go to sleep . Dont forget dogs feel tension and if you lay there all tense and frustrated he...

I would you know..., I photograph one handed while George swings on the other hand like a 20kilo pendulum and get myself twisted into all kinds of strange postitions trying to find the ' best ' angle or 'best' light .. I have a passion for photographing fungi which often sees me in near...

Stunning ... Well spotted

Brilliant news. Ar you doing hydro therapy? There wasn't anything near us so we bought an old whirlpool jacuzzi bath and set it up outside for Oscar it helped regain his balance and keep his muscle condition... Wishing you and Oliver all the best..

A real shame for you as the innocent party. But as the old saying goes ' a fool and his money are soon parted' All the advice says never pay a deposit until you have met the breeder and the pups etc ect....

Murphy refused food for 3 days when we tried a hypoallegenic kibble diet. He loses weight quickly so we stopped that changed to raw and were very lucky to find his trigger food first time, for him its beef. I wouldnt go back to dry (or wet) commerical processed food now if you paid me. Ive...

It asks for a UK address which I understand because this is a uk based website for rehoming uk based dogs.. but it means I cant past the front door unless I lie and give mums old address..

I found the site but cant register Im not in the uk.. so I cant see what the site is like. As for back stories... When I adopted George my beagle I already had a social media page for my other dog Murphy and I sent the owner of George a link. She looked through my photos and decided we were a...

Im not in the UK anymore but Ive adopted quite a few dogs and one thing thats missing both when I adopted in the Uk and here in the EU is support afterwards. You agree to adopt a traumatised dog and then youre on youre own. If you cant cope with odd behaviours or run into problems there is...

I use them when they suit me and because I like to keep up to date before Im left behind in the dark. But what we have seen in the Netherlands is the introuduction of the kletskassa or chatty till ( dont go there unless you have time) the cashier there is specially instructed to chat to and be...

Oscar my BC was 8 when I came down one morning and found him scooting around like a seal. No back end mobility at all. I rushed to the vet too. My vet asked if he had lost bladder or bowel control. No he hadn't. The vet pinched toes and got a bit of response so he said all hope was not lost A...
