    I need some advice for Reuben please

    It sounds like Reuben has patterned a strong fear response to the vet - understandably. For the interim I would ask for some support with medicine that will work at reducing his fear to the point of Reuben being able to work through this with the help of the staff. It might be a good idea to...

    Help! We have a border collie for the weekend

    He might just be a bit wound up - a nice frozen Kong, snuffle mat might help, failing that give him a crossword to do! :cwl:

    Snowie

    :hug::hug:Snowie!!! Just look at him, a day out, with his besties, eating ice-cream, goofy but happy expression! Just thank you for sharing. It is difficult, especially when we share the hard times with our friends, then they offer advice in a caring way, but completely the wrong time, and...

    Snowie’s paws are too sore for walking

    Can you use a buggy for him? So he can get around, have a bit of sniff, but not aggravate his paws too much. Dear Snowy, still a very handsome lad! :heart: :hug:

    Barking in his crate.

    Retrieving - advice wanted

    Oh Naya I am so sorry for the pain you are going through. Take life a day at a time. It has been nearly a year since we lost Casper, we still feel that ache of loss. But we can now smile when we remember his quirks, and he had lots of them! We have a dog in class that even has a bottom waggle...
