But the rescue has to err on the side of caution and if they have no history or even a slight suspicion that the dog might not be cat safe - and lets face it, they're going to have been worked so the odds are that they won't be immediately cat safe - then it's better all round to say so...

Dunno who she was, but I do know Bridgwater doesn't have an 'e' in the middle :teehee:

Poor lady :( I do hope she knew her girls were all settled, and was able to pass with her mind at rest. She must have been so worried.

I'm confused, was this a comedy? :unsure: Only, I've heard others saying how horrific it was, and that a man was shown killing a deerhound with a spade, and then a cat was thrown onto a racing track? :unsure: Or is this a coincidence, and there have been two similarish films shown...

I certainly don't know for certain, but would imagine the thickness of skin would make it impossible to freeze brand dogs. Horse hide - even thin skinned TB's and Arabs - is presumably much hardier than dog skin, especially sight hounds. I too wouldn't care about how it looked, if it prevented...

As many of you know, TRPD make various dog related items to sell to raise money to help rescues. They also hold special fundraisers that fund extra goodies to help rescues even further. At the moment the production team are in a challenge with the sales team, and the winners get extra goods to...

Life just isn't the same without the Edster, but we adopted an old collie boy a short while ago, and Willow perked up a bit with his arrival. He's had a liver problem and 3 tumours, benign thankfully. But he's ok now, and happy, and such a nice lad :)) But he's not a whippy :blink: Anyway...

Erm, but this is a greyhound bitch... :unsure: Has she raced, if so what is she like with small dogs? :unsure:

Hi, some of you will know about the Podencos over on Ibiza that have been being bred and 'kept' - and I use the term VERY loosely! - for the past 20 odd years in conditions that can only be called a living hell :'( Read the full horror story here (scroll down a little) ----> Ibizan Podenco...

I am so, so sorry to read about your loss. I guess the only thing that may be of some little comfort is that they went quickly, and are now together again. No great comfort when you're grief stricken, I know. :huggles:

Oohoohh, I saw Fly then! Yelled at hubby - 'look, a pointy won the prize!' :cheers: :thumbsup:

Ohhhh, that is lovely! :huggles: Thank you Debs - and thank you all for your kind words, they do help, to know that other people will remember my little Edster for a time. :cheers: For a wee lad, I cannot believe the whole he's left in our home. :wub:

Oh Debs, I am so, so sorry to read this :( :huggles: :huggles: :huggles: Izzy was so beautiful, truly a gorgeous girly :wub: These sudden heartbreaking losses are so very hard to cope with aren't they? Run free Izzy, and please show Ed the best places to dig, he does so love to do that!

Just when I thought I'd stopped crying, I go to write this and start again. Just 3 short hours ago we had to let our Ed go ahead of us to the bridge. He woke me in the early hours by sounding as if he was having problems in his bed. I got up to see him, and it was clear he was in a lot of...

Probably not and it would only get out of hand again I guess if whatever the reason was, was posted :wacko: However it DOES boggle the mind how a thread helping whippets can get *out of hand*, so I can see why the poster was curious. Anyway, glad many whippets got helped and I'm certainly...

Well, I'm pleased to report that after a fairly fraught few months, Eddie the elderly is restored to full health and beyond :wub: :wub: :wub: As some of you may remember, at the start of the year he was having violent vomiting bouts, and would just recover only to be taken ill again and go...

Well, Ed's laid quietly and doesn't seem uncomfortable, but he didn't even come to see me when I came home from work. Mum said he went up the garden and did a poo, but then laid down and wouldn't move, and she had to carry him back down. The vet says as long as he's comfortable he'd like to...

Thanks all, you're all brilliant, and I've certainly got some ideas to go on with. Jo, I may well be in touch with you about that tree barks powder - I've got some plain slippery elm here but have no idea what to do with it for the best, and wasn't sure if it would help with this. At the moment...

My poor old boy, since the last time I wrote he's been poorly again, and this time he's been diagnosed with pancreatitis. It seems it's probably going to be chronic - and I never realised what a dangerous condition it can be! :( Anyway, I've got him on the mend now, but I'm obviously going to...
