    Maybe I have used the wrong words and maybe what I am talking about should be the "Latest". "Great", a section for seniors why not. Modern technology is fine for the younger members who quiet possibly had computers from a much younger age, but when I was at school we were not even aloud...

    I also tend to use the "new posts" but find the list sometimes a bit too short to show the whole list of a new day's messages.

    Rescued a 6.5 week old puppy - tips and help needed!

    I start weaning onto raw at 2.5 weeks, at 5 weeks bones are introduced and by 6 to 6.5 weeks the puppies are weaned from mum completely onto their solid meat mixes only so that by the time they leave home at 8 weeks they are properly independent of any milk and ready for the big wide world. Your...

    Renal food - advice sought

    A wet or raw diet would probably be best and will put less strain on the kidneys. Kibbles are very dry, "Royal Canin" is full of cheap fillers and both of these will need a lot or re-hydration to be of any benefit to a kidney in distress and probably to be avoided. Myths About Raw: Is my vet...

    Hello welcome. This is a very friendly site with plenty of us to help if required. What cross is a "sprollie ? This could give some idea as to what might be expected from Molly and how to help. Pictures of her would be loved .

    Raw chicken legs

    I can't say I have ever noticed what you have mentioned, but whatever they are they will be safe just like any other part of a chicken carcass. I mince a huge amount of fresh Pheasant bodies from beaks, heads, necks, no wings (we cut them off and throw them away! ) legs. The actual boney leg and...

    Blue Staffy Puppy - need some help please

    Congratulations, You have chosen to purchase your puppy from a breeder that knows what food is best for their puppies. There is no more health risk using a raw meat for your puppy than there is for us having raw joints of meat that we handle for human consumption. Cleanliness precautions should...

    Dog eye problem

    It looks as if a vet visit would be a sensible thing. As mentioned by Judy, ringworm could considered. I think the most sensible thing would be your visit to a professional, a vet. Eyes are very delicate and any treatment so close should be taken with care. Please keep in touch.

    Loose-lead training with part-time dog

    But it is not attached to his nose it rests above and hangs below his lower jaw. It just turns his head. Many animals are lead by head collars and halters, they are not cruel. :eek: Oh wow! is that Jasper as a puppy he's gorgeous.:)

    Loose-lead training with part-time dog

    I like the look of the "Gentle leader", it has the closest comfortable fit like a Halti. I met a rather large dog in our vet surgery once who was wearing one, it was loose and comfortable fitting and not cutting beneath the eyes, as so many head collar type halters do. He and his owner were very...

    Changing Feeding for Blue

    I am not able to find exact ingredients list for the "Purina Robust Puppy" kibble. But just at a glance the "Proplan", ingredients in general are not very good or healthy. Their products contain only very little meat content which itself is highly processed;:eek: Other products without any %...

    Changing Feeding for Blue

    If this helps:rolleyes: Our Cockers vary between 10kg in weight to 16 kg. They are all fed raw diets and get about 250 grams or 1/2lb each per day, adjusted up or down as required.

    Advocate flea treatment

    As long as the medications in the different products are not the same, and that you are not doubling up on any product, you should be fine.

    Advocate flea treatment

    You may not see an instant result as the fleas lifecycle takes a while to overcome, but it will work.

    Advocate flea treatment

    I am not a lover of monthly chemicals being put on our dogs skins but last summer we were not able to clear a flea problem with the good old faithful Frontline spray. I went to our vet and decided to use "Advocate" (a monthly spot on). We used this product for 3 months to break the flea cycle...
