    You are not allowed to have products in a coat that will enhance the coat i.e hairspray talc or anything that masks colour or texture. Short coated breeds are much easier to get ready, a wipe down with a wet wipe can be sufficient ( unless they are filthy ) clean teeth and trimmed nails is a...

    Dog teeth

    Raw bones and chicken wings are fine to give, it’s only when they have been cooked that they become brittle and dried out, making them dangerous. When they are raw they are soft so can be eaten and digested without any problems

    Dog teeth

    When Can A Puppy Leave Its Mother?

    A bit late to this thread, but generally most puppies will leave their litter around 8 weeks of age, toy / small breeds will stay a little longer ( around 10weeks ) m due to a slower growth rate.

    I do discover dogs with my breed so will always give the negatives to my breed before the positives. , I will tell them how wilful , noises and mouthy they can be, inform about coat care and energy levels, if you don’t want a dog that can and does think for himself. That can demand attention be...
