    " Silver "

    It isn't my intention to 'spoil things' The opening poster chose to put photographs onto a public forum. We are in a culture of saying 'oooh lovely, beautiful litter etc etc' or if we don't think that, we tend to say nothing at all. Every single breeder does things slightly differently and...

    Another Lump

    Hi Angela, Sorry to hear about Tilly, must be very worrying. Im not quite sure what you are describing from your post - is it a mammary tumour that Tilly has (sorry i didn't understand your description) and also i didn't know where her first one was. We had a bitch go through mammary cancer...

    Advice Please! (seasons)

    Season pants are intended from protecting your furniture / carpets from getting blood spots on them - they are not intended for wearing out on walks!! I take my girl out when she's in season - but to a very quiet place where no one is about. Walking in a commercial area, with dozens of other...

    Is My Boy Too Thin??

    Yes, ideally he does need more weight on him. Is he a good eater? If so, just increase his rations and he'll soon be better covered. We've got one who has looked as thin as this at times, but he was not a good eater until quite recently (sudden decided to get an appetite at the age of 3!)...

    Chicken Wings

    Mine have wings on a regular basis but Ruby and Frankie both have plaque prone teeth that i have to scrape to keep clean. My sisters dogs chew bones a lot more than mine and they have much better teeth. I just don't think wings take long enough to eat to have a real teeth cleaning benefit.

    Feeding

    The Foldhill biscuit is a mixer and not a complete food - it should be fed mixed with meat and not on its own. You don't need to feed complete if you're going down the raw feeding route. Just several meals of meat and mixer per day plus bits a pieces of veg, sardines etc

    Should We Get A 2nd Dog??

    Like others have said, i don't think you'd regret getting a second Whippet. 18 months is a good age to start looking for a new addition / getting yourself on a waiting list, as your boy will have a close bond with you and all training issues etc will have been dealt with. There is something...

    Law On Dog Attack?

    Well you're all wrong. It's nothing to do with what the dog has attacked (human, other dog, anything else). It's about whether a dog is dangerously out of control in a public place. It will depend on where you live as to what Police response you get but round here we often get called (and...

    As you'll be able to get a prescription from your vet for this medication - have you tried all the on-line vet pharmacies?

    Vaccinate Or Not This Time?

    I can't believe that he said that!!! :wacko: I can't comment on your vet as obviously i don't know him but i honestly wonder if some of them continue to educate themselves after qualifying many many years ago - the research is all out there. Lepto is the one where the immunity wanes very...

    Vaccinate Or Not This Time?

    No, i would not vaccinate him again. If he's had that many boosters over the course of his life he won't require one. I completely agree that you should NOT vaccinate an animal who's under the weather / immune system already compromised. I personally do not do annual boosters - and it is for...
