I can't complete it as I've never owned a pug and I'm not considering owning one.

Hi. I think to scan a QR code, people would need a second device. People are generally happier to follow a link but as a new member, you aren't able to post them. But we try to be helpful when it's for academic studies so if you type the link with a space (to make clear what it is, without...

Hello and welcome.

I can't think of any reason not to?

The thing is, I'm not sure anyone ever would cross-check after the passport has been issued - most vets aren't actually issuing the passport until icad registration is complete. It's the fact that the passport has already been issued that's confusing here. I'm sure you can't, it needs to be a...

Apologies, I wasn't really clear what I meant. I was thinking that if it's a seasonal allergy, it might be worthwhile washing them in plain water after every visit outside.

When you say you groom him, do you actually wash his paws? If not, that's the first thing I'd try.

Yes, I'm in the UK and just travel regularly. But in Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Germany and Luxembourg there are no additional requirements like having an address. It's my UK address that's on the passport. I've done the trip from here to Santander, getting a pet cabin can be a challenge but we...

You would need a French address to register on icad. My dog's passport is Spanish so I've never been asked for any additional paperwork.

I've more experience and knowledge of passports than of icad. My understanding of it is that it isn't necessary to register your pet on the database if you are not resident in France. However if you have an address there, and your dog were to be lost, it makes a lot of sense to do it. If you...

You are lucky, a lot of vets won't issue the passport unless the iCad registration is completed. As long as the rabies vaccination date in the passport isn't earlier than the passport issued date, you should be fine. If the rabies is recorded as the same date or later than the passport issue...

Soft tissue injuries take ages to heal. Maybe canine physiotherapy, hydrotherapy or cold laser treatments might help?

The big things I read from this is that she came to you for support, and you listened to her and gave her the support by picking her up. I think those are good things.

I just wanted to pitch in and say you just might see a difference after 16 weeks because that's a bit of a milestone in puppy brain development. Maybe not, I don't want to give you false hope. But fingers crossed. She may always be shy but I think it sounds like you are doing the right things...

There certainly are things you can do to help - he may never be a gregarious social butterfly, but if you follow he steps in the reactive dog thread, play the pattern games, and protect him and advocate for him as suggested above, these will all help.

Hello and welcome. There's a few things in there so do bear with me if I miss anything. But essentially, it does sound like nervous behaviour. This is classic stress behaviour. You may have heard of the fight or flight stress response - there are another two Fs; freeze (rabbit in the...

I also have no experience but wanted to add my condolences. If you think it might help, the Blue Cross has a pet bereavement counselling service. https://www.bluecross.org.uk/pet-bereavement-and-pet-loss

I know you said you weren't keen to find another trainer but I wonder if that might help? Someone who can see, in person, what Barley is doing and make suggestions on how to react.

I'm sorry she has been poorly. Insurance decisions can be hard to predict - is it worth giving them a call to see what they are planning?
