Tiree used to do this. I gather it's not unusual in pups although it was the first time I'd encountered it and I was absolutely mortified. I tried...
Sounds familiar. My last dog got very excited humping his teddy, and his pizzle would come out so it definitely looked sexual to me. Male dogs...
I've never had a problem with my dogs in the car. Could your puppy have had a fright in the car that's made them anxious? If they've not travelled...
I can relate, my cocker was a bit crazy at that age and still is sometimes. They do calm down in time, but one thing you could think about is his...
It's one of those controversial issues that comes up time to time. I've heard it said annual vaccination is a nice little earner for vets and not...
A vet once told me to wipe the inside with a damp cotton wool ball. Some long eared breeds get very dirty, but Tiree's are pretty clean on the whole.
Start with short five minute training sessions, with lots of treats and make it fun. He'll think it's a game and it helps build the relationship...
It's not easy to get the antivenom and it's very expensive. The vet said they could get it by courier from Glasgow if we wanted, but we agreed he...
Tiree is our third dog and the only one we've taken insurance on. I'm so glad we did because at nine months he was bitten by an adder and the...
I don’t think my house smells of dog (much) but here’s what I do. I vacuum and steam clean hard floors. Tiree isn’t allowed on the beds and I try...
I had a Dyson some years ago when they were all the rage and I wouldn't have another one. Overpriced and overrated IMO. I now use a Shark, both a...
Having bought three pups over the years I've never encountered a breeder who wouldn't let me see the pups. If the litter are very young I can...
I use a normal toothbrush, just a cheap human one. I use Beaphar toothpaste because it is meat flavoured and he's more willing to accept it.
I reckon the key to cracking house training is establishing a routine. Tummy upsets aside, dogs usually fall into a pattern of toileting at...
Tried out the hot water in a watering can this morning and it works a treat. I'm so chuffed. Now all I have to do is remember to fill it up...
I have considered this but Tiree would flip out in a confined space and there's nothing to stop him escaping if the door is open. Plus the shower...
Ooh, that's a good idea. I hadn't thought of a watering can. What size do you use?
I'm wondering what everyone does about bathing their dog. We've recently moved house and do most of our walking in the woods now, which is great...
So sorry to hear this. Sending hugs.
I can only echo what everyone else has said. If it's a medical problem only a vet can deal with it. You know your pet better than anyone and if...
