I visit a collie whose owners work. I visiting the morning and another friend visits in the afternoon. So he is never left for longer than three hours. At the very least he needs a wee.
The maximum I have leftnDudley is an hour and a half when we do our weekly shop.
I have a dog CAM and leave...
He is only a little dog. Yesterday we walked a total of six and a half miles. He went to sleep about seven then on the dot of nine he wanted playtime. He has two stuffed toys he likes us to throw.
Nothing else interests him.They are his obsession
No time difference perhaps it will change when...
Since coming back from our holiday (with Dudley) he wants to play at nine o'clock at night.
He cries until one of us gives in. At nine we really want to just relax.
He gets two good walks a day and lots of playing from us during the day.
How do I reset his body clock?
Reading this reminds me of a friend many years ago who had to make this decision.. her dog was very like yours anxious and unpredictable.
One day the dog cornered her husband in the kitchen and bit him badly on arms and leg. He managed to hold it off with a chair.
Next day the dog was calm...
I did it in reverse. Dudley was 22 weeks when he became mine. He slept downstairs quite happily until this year.
I had been in hospital and I missed him dreadfully so at nearly three he had a bed upstairs and sometimes sleeps on the bed with me.
Wish I had done it earlier we both sleep well.
This is Dudley sharing a bed with my daughter's Staffie and two cats. Taken when Dudley was still a puppy. She also had two small children.
Diva was a rescue at 18 months old. She us now 9 and is a lovely dog
Fantastic pics of dogs sleeping in strange positions. As long as they are comfortable they don't care do they? They continue to amaze me with their actions. Wonderful creatures.
Strangely we were told that by strangers on the beach.
He was only a year old then his coat got curly and bichon like. This year we have kept it clipped fairly short
Dudley has never been crated, he also never chewed anything he shouldn't. He does chew his toys and he has always had an antler to chew on. However he was six months old when he came to live with me. My grandaughter who had him from eight weeks in a small flat, said he never chewed anything...
Our local pub welcomes dogs. In the garden and in the bar. There can be up to nine of us in there in the mornings, having tea and coffee after our walks.
On one occasion there were eleven with no problems.
We always go for Christmas dinner in the restaurant, without the dogs.Usually 12 of us.
Where live we have one cafe/bistro in town which welcomes dogs and children. It is always full. Serves alcohol as well as hot drinks, and snacks and meals.
Their reason is some children are afraid of dogs and they want to encourage young families. Second reason is the staff are fed up of picking up dog mess.
Apparently they don't mind children running around screaming or drunks vomiting and causing fights.
I don't know why I am so incensed I have...
