These are all good observations Jennifer, so I guess it's just a case of unpicking it a bit. If his food hasn't changed, but the quantities have, could you return to the previous quantitites for a couple of weeks and see how his poos go? And related to that, is there a reason you're giving him...

Fabulous news, well done Team Merlin :clap:

:partyhat: :dug: :clap::rock::*:happyfeet::dancesheep::koala::sun::poolparty::hen: Thanks for doing it all!

This job always makes me smile! Love log stacking, it’s very satisfying.

Can you leave him in the car until he’s come round enough to make his own way out, possibly with a solid step (like a thick crate, or a stool with a nonslip mat on it)? I’ve heard of dogs weeing after anesthetic because of disorientation; maybe some towels would do the job. I’m sorry it’s not...

Hi gang! I’m looking for a new bed for Kipper and would love any ideas. Do you have anything your pups would recommend?

Definitely drooling is common with teething. Stilton goes through phases - it’s also associated with pain /discomfort, which is definitely a factor in teething - poor babies. His back molars are fully settling at the moment and he’s drooling a bit from that (as well as having a fresh love for...

Golly I feel your pain Kelsey - when Kipper was a puppy we had months of cycling from diarrhea to recovery then back to diarrhea. Eventually it turned out to be giardia which the vets hadn’t tested for, it was relatively quick to clear up. As others have said tummy upsets are really common with...

Is anyone still doing scent work? I'm wondering if I can set up some stuff at home. I've done some simple games with Stilton - bits of liver sausage hidden in toilet rolls and placed around the garden - and he's really enjoying it, so I'm thinking both he and Kipper would love to do more.

One for me please @Naya !

Poor Ted's owners - they gave him a wonderful life and he knew nothing but love. Sleep tight Ted.

Well MY walk was eerly and my hoomans kept shoutin CMUN ORLBLAX a now they keep sayin wotashayme soclosse so I dunno Maxx, maybe they were looking for black labadores that din turn up? *Kipper*

I am sorry @MellowYellow , this is really upsetting - it sounds like the vet is fairly certain. I’d be similarly conflicted on the castration but if it’s the best route I guess there’s no decision to be made. Will he e comfortable in the interim, or is he on any meds?

Ahhhh, I love his voice!! What a gorgeous boy he is. And Gizmo is brave, I love how well he stands his ground. Also you’re doing such a fabulous job with Hugo - his check ins with you are lovely 🥰

He’s an absolute corker. Lovely photos!

You are absolutely on the right track Kelsey, keep going - and as I think you very wisely said to me a few weeks ago (might have dreamt it!?), it’s these tough times that help build your relationship which you’ll benefit from massively in the future. Keep going and it’ll be over soon. I spent...

Hapee birfday Maxx, we are now the SAME AGE so I thinks we live together, yes? 6 means you’re you’re most handsum. My mumma tole me so it must be true. X Kipper x

Oof, what a worry Jennifer. I didn't know Redwood was problematic for dogs. I know the fronds are soft, as well as the bark - so hopefully it'll pass through fairly easily. Good work to call the vets - let us know how it goes x

Not at all, no apology needed Robyn! I think I’m sensitive about calling it a struggle because we’ve got it easy relative to many others, we chose to put ourselves and the dogs in this position, and I don’t want to ‘blame’ them for the challenging bits. Plus there’s the eternal guilt that I...

It’s more that his teething has been so full on, and getting him and Kipper cohabitating is a long road - particularly given we don’t have much space and only one route to the garden, so it’s logistically challenging at times. But he’s a darling, and I’m absolutely certain we’ll all come good in...
