About time I updated this thread! Teasel continues to grow in confidence. She is now officially a teenager, but I love to see her with confidence enough to gently nudge boundaries, and test me just a little bit more. Her affection though is so endearing. I always expected her to develop into a...

Freezing here but the sun is shining!:cold::sun:

I was prompted by @Emily_Babbelhund post, it was about time I changed the Christmas theme! I thought a bit of :snowflake: :snowflake: was rather appropriate!

Oh wow! I can't believe you have snow! Poor Carbon, he must be sooo confused! :rofl: :snowflake:

11! How did that happen? Happy birthday you gorgeous boy!:cake::hearteyesdog::gift::heart: Still remember my surprise and delight when he "grinned" at me literally.. :hug: :hug:

So lovely to hear from you! Looks like you really have been through the mill recently, poor Primrose with a bilateral TPLO, that must've been really tough. The photos are wonderful, the puppers look really happy! :hug: :hug:

Poor wee Nelly, this must be so difficult for you xx

Well done Cassie! Sounds like a great set up for a trial! :inlove: :inlove: :celebrate:

Oh Karen I feel so sad for you. I know the seizures are horrible, one of my cats years ago had a terrible time with them, and they are just so traumatic. I really hope it is just a blip, and you have plenty of quality time with her :hug: :hug:

Just gorgeous photos! :hug: :hug: :hug:

Truly heartbroken for you both. We have such incredibly fond memories of the gang together, we are both in tears for you. Dearest Holly, we will all miss you, and will hold dear your very sensible influence on our Severnside Walks. :hug: :hug:

Just switching from one side another - is likely not be giving Trixie enough space. Think about that, especially if Trixie is excited. If you are trying to train loose leash, and Trixie is throwing out other behaviours, such as grabbing the lead, you need to understand what is motivating the...

I thought, scrolling down from the top.. there are some things you just can't "unsee"... :rofl: :rofl:

Yes, cold weather keeps the Scent cloud small, as well as factoring in wind and position of the odour. Length of time the odour is in situ has an impact on Scentwork, as I found out last week, when we just managed to get the Christmas scent hides in place! The barn though, was minus 3!! :cold::cold:

Poor lad, and what a worry for you! Relieved dear Hunter is improving... :hug: :hug:

Well spotted! That does sounds sore! :hug:

Maybe we could swap tips? Poor Teasel could do with your calm and gentle leash handling :inlove: :inlove:

Just a note: we don't recommend slip leads for training a loose lead walk They are fine for dogs who already understand where the walking position is, and get rewarded by being in this position, of course being mindful of the environment which will influence any dogs ability to walk calmly...

Teasel Update It has now been... well I think I have lost count! Probably closer to 7 months now and the longest foster ever! She still looks like a puppy... maybe she always will! Teasel loves to retrieve, and loves her toys! She is always emptying the toybox, and bringing me ALL of them! I...

No... It is a bit of a sore point. There are so many dogs urgently needing help, young super dogs in real risk of pts. Teasel, because she is safe here, is on the back burner. It is not a great situation tbh..
