    Woody

    One of the practice nurses at work was called home yesterday. Her 7 year old black Labrador, Woody, had become very ill very suddenly. He'd lost all feeling in his back end, he was very weak. He had masses of blood in his abdomen. They had to say goodbye. I never met Woody, but we swap tales of...

    Poorly Sick Meg

    She lost her Sparkle last night. She'd done mahossive grass sick yesterday lunch - silly girl often eats too much grass. When we came in from our meal out, she'd sicked again but it had bean eaten, leaving just a stain on the carpet. 12:10AM woken by Meg doing that heaving at the bedroom door...

    Feel bad. Figure-of-8.

    I feel I've reached an impasse with Meg(an) Sparkle pulling on the lead & lunging. I decided to try a figure-of-8 lead. I bought a soft webbing one. It doesn't ride up into her eyes. I walked her around the house, then the garden, she did not protest & rub at it. I walked her at her weekend on...

    Doggy Woes

    Do you have any woes you'd like to share? This morning we'd had a lovely autumnal walk and a good run in the field after the ball. I parked up on my path. Next door neighbour, Mark, was over the road chatting to Captain Caveman (he has an elderly Jack Russel called Bella. He's not a...

    Coco tries mantrailing

    We had such fun. A lady called Dawn from Preston Trick Dogs came over and did several sessions over 2 days. We were on the last session, with 3 other dogs & Dawn's young puppy. We did 3 trails, each split into 2 parts. We had 2 jackpot pots of food for each trail. At the start, the trailee stood...

    Coco's Turn to be Sick

    Perhaps Meg(an) Sparkle did have a little bug after all. Coco has just stood up & done the honk stance - I rushed him through to the kitchen where, for some unknown reason, he stood by the hinge of the back door & Meg stood by the opening and got in the way and in the confused delay Coco honked...

    Nightmare Vet Visit

    It was awful. She had to be muzzled. She went for the vet. Several times. I couldn't hold her still. In the end, we covered her head with a towel while I held on to her head and neck, the vet stopped her body squirming and the nurse injected her in the loose skin on her back. I caught a scratch...

    Tags

    Coco has somehow managed to lose his collar this morning - I only realised when we got home. Of course that means he's lost his ID tag - it had a scary pumpkin on one side. I went to my favourite site for tags, Engraving Studios, and ordered this one...made me chuckle.

    Jumball

    For those in the UK, B&M still have Jumballs for only £7.99. They are over £25 from Amazon, and more than £30 on eBay! I bought one for the dogs at Christmas. They are really tough footballs with a solid handle to pick them up with, so you can pump them up really hard to help prevent...

    Meg's Top Treats for Treat Streaming

    Fish4Dogs Finest small bite kibble. I bought some samples of the fish one (they do salmon & sardine too) (only 50p for a 75g bag) - and it's perfect. Quite fishy-smelling which is good (for her, not me!), and tiny pieces (0.7cm) - they actually do an even smaller one for toy dogs (0.5cm). We...
