    Sleeping

    I have a 10 month old cocker spaniel and I just wanted to ask how much they should sleep as it’s driving me mad thinking we should be doing something with him all the time . He has a set routine through the week as we both work (my wife works from home) it’s at weekends is the problem as we are...

    Toilet habits

    We are just feeding him what Essentials recommend maybe a little more but he does have treats throughout the day and on walks which is on top of his meals . He normally poo’s around 3 times a day twice in the morning and once at night .

    Toilet habits

    We have stopped giving him wet food on top of his kibble just adding a little water to see if that helps . He seems to always go to the loo twice first thing the first is always well formed and hard the second one is always really soft it’s like picking up mashed potato ,why would that be as...

    Sleeping

    He tends to sprawl out either on the sofa or the rug and on his back mostly , but then it’s still mild maybe I will have to see what he is like when it gets cold . Eventually we are hoping he will settle without a crate or just with no door on so he can decide where he wants to sleep . As for...

    Sleeping

    This might seem a silly question , I’m wondering whether my dog will get cold at night when winter arrives , we don’t have our heating on over night for obvious reasons but it will kick in if the temperature falls below 18 degrees . He sleeps in his crate at night as he seems to settle and...

    Toilet habits

    Sorry it’s a toilet question, in the morning my dogs stools are what I would call normal they are formed easy to pick up but later through the day they can be quite moist and leaves a residue which is very hard to clean . We are feeding him good quality kibble but we do use a little bit of wet...

    Worries

    I think his recall is very good but he is our first dog so have nothing to compare. My big worry is when he starts to mature I’ve heard they can get a scent and run off which is why we are thinking of getting him done at some point , again we don’t know what to do for the best but we have heard...

    4:45 I thought I was early . I have just bought a head torch maybe it won’t be as bad as I’m thinking . The more I let him off the lead the more confidence I have with him .

    Worries

    Thank you for your reply deep down I know what you say to be true it’s just I get blinded by my worry . My wife always says that what we are doing for him is enough and we will overcome any hurdles but I think because it’s our first dog I need to here it from other dog owners . He is turning me...
