Hi all, Wondering if anyone can help. We have a 1 year old rescue toy poodle who had an awful start in life. When we got him he was terrified of everything, skinny and just generally in poor health. We’ve had him 6 months and he’s put on weight and is much less scared of life! To help with...

Hi all, I have a 15-month-old lurcher pup who is fantastic and is doing great with his training. It might be easier to give some background on him before asking for advice. He was the runt of the litter and very badly bullied by his siblings, to the point where he couldn't be kept or...

Hi, we reserved a puppy when it was 1 week old after putting a 12.5% deposit. We were sent a health check of the toy poodle stud (clear of degenerative myelopathy) and a KC registration for the mother Cavalier King Charles spaniel. The mother is also supposedly health tested although we haven’t...

Sonny’s recall is okay. Still needs a lot of practicing as he doesn’t come to heel or come back when called every single time. (He’s not even 4 months old so I’m not down about it.) HOWEVER, what’s getting me down is when we are out walking, he will have a personality switch and just start...
