Hi. Our 5 month old jackapoo pup is obsessed with eating stones/leaves/feathers/tissues/cigarette butts/plastic on a walk. You name it, its goes in his mouth. We can manage sometimes to distract with a treat and call out drop it - and he will drop, but a lot of the times the item has disappeared...

Hello everyone, I am a new owner, never had a dog before, with an 8 month old female Border Collie called Ruby. Must admit she is a handful, especially as I am an unhealthy 61 year old. Fortunately my wife is here to help and she is at least used to dogs throughout her childhood although not...
