Thank you @JoanneF that's very kind.:)
I've had my mindful dog walking card made into a decal, so it's a permanent fixture on the back doors of my van now, just keeping it out there! They do say change happens one person at a time eh... I do want to say thankyou though to the knowledgeable lot...
Today was a really good day!
Back in January I took on a new dog to walk, a Rom rescue with reactivity issues. She is gorgeous and, for me anyway, her reactivity is pretty well managed other than when a dog comes too close. Where I walk her is usually quiet but today we had 3 different moments...
This is why I miss my old vet, he used to go through all the options as opposed to only suggesting this test and that. And he was happy to discuss and explain, I never felt pressured and I felt respected as a pet owner. With Iggy I felt things were taken out of my hands and I didn't feel...
I never understand why vets won't offer a payment plan, it is really heartless.
When my vet retired(he was a general vet, acupuncturist and exotics) I had to start using another exotics vet, same company, different practice. I've been with them for probably getting on 25/30years now and when...

One of the loveliest dogs I worked with was a setter/collie, really beautiful nature, but sadly no longer with us...
Yes I should of added too, no offence meant to people who have Frenchies... oops!
In a way your experience with your staffy gives you the ability to understand much more than some people, that some dogs just don't handle being approached. You already want your pup to grow up well and not just run over to everyone, perfect! Some people don't even have that thought tbh...
I'm personally not a fan of Crufts...
I've worked with about 3 Frenchies over the years, all rescues and all struggled. One has since had the surgery to open up his airways, he is breathing better, but just even noisier now! A small price to pay for him being more comfortable.
The RSPCA...
It is so heart breaking what people do to animals all over the world:(...including here...
What lovely people to of found this poor dog and to have given him a wonderful new lease of life. As well as the many others they've helped.
