You poor poor thing. I have never lost a dog but reading your story broke my heart. This site has helped me with lots of worries and concerns with my dog and I am glad that you have discovered it, I am sure the lovely members on here will give you the support and advice you need right now. I'm...

Ted looking very sorry for himself.

Ted has his operation on his back right leg yesterday. He's home now, it all went well and he's feeling sleepy, and a little out of sorts as expected. He needs the 'lampshade' on for about 10 days until the vet sees him for a check up but he'll be crated for 4 weeks. This will be a period of...

That may be an idea..our trainer has said that once he is up for moving about she will send some advice but his training began because of his reactivity with dogs so I guess we'll be taking it slowly and training and recovering simultaneously! 😉

Training will be on hold soon as he's having an operation on Friday because he's been diagnosed with stage 2 and 3 patella luxation in back legs. He's gonna need a slow and steady recovery. 😪 He now has a elevated bed which he is loving and we hope this helps with his comfort. His trainers...

Have spoken to vets today, and Ted's back right leg is a stage 3 so he is booked in for an operation next friday for 1 leg.

We have the same problems with Ted, his new trainer have told us to stop walks....just walking out the door.heightens him instantly. So we are teaching 'find it' throw a treat at a short distance at home...then 'with me' when he finds it and looks back at me...then ' orientation' same thing but...

Yes, it covers up to £6000 a year so that would be an option.

Thanks for the info...have you changed your dogs walking routine? As in , length of time, off lead, running , jumping containment...

We have a 2 and half yr old male springer/cocker/ poodle mix. He's always walked a little funny but never showed pain or reluctant to do anything. We've started with a new trainer as his reactivity is in need of support...they have noticed he sometimes limps. Anyway, after vet visit and xray he...

We've been using this for 3/4 days...they've healed well. Still there but the black bits have gone

The aloe vera gel arrived today, a huge pot..Ted was quite happy to sit and let me rub it on the few scabby areas. Fingers 🤞 they heal soon.

Thankyou for the advice. Will get some aloe vera balm today and begin the process of soothing it and watch how they go.

Will do this, although he's a water lover so we often have to take his collar off to dry it. Thankyou

Beautiful face 💙

Please help. I hope its ok to post the following pictures. We have over the day or two discovered some scabs with small black bits around Ted's neck area. He hasn't been seen scratching or in any discomfort, even when we are having a good look at them. There are about 4/5 , a couple under his...

I think it's easy to feel like you've failed as a dog owner these days. But today as I walked Ted at 6am away from the heat weve been having, we had a lovely forest walk where he sniffed loads and I stopped whenever he wanted to because it's his walk, not mine! He found a puddle from absolutely...

Thankyou, I have dog mum guilt! Only yesterday he was in a private dog field that you can hire for an hr at a time... with a buddy and he had a great time so that's always available and local.

Just wondering ....Teddy's recall is hit and miss, he was amazing until about 8 months old when he suddenly forgot all we'd taught..we've got long lines and on walks we get him to check in ' Teddy come' and he's fine..but other dogs about and he totally ignores...even if I have his favourite...
