Stolen from a friends page ❤️ This was translated from Italian from a friend. Oh how true WHEN CHOOSING A LABRADOR MAKE SURE IT HAS THE STANDARD DESCRIBED BELOW: - The Labrador does not walk, he/she trots! With a certain air of confidence. Looking at the world from its immeasurable...

Pip, an Irish Terrier, lived with her Dad down the road from us. She was one of Homer's special friends and only about three years old. Her Dad stopped me as I was taking Homer for a walk to say she had passed away in a tragic accident. His grief was still really raw when he was talking to me...

My niece is fostering these two little cuties. I have limited info. They were dropped off at an animal shelter she helps out with. My brother says they are lab/boerbul cross. They are very young, he doesn’t know how young.

We had mussels for dinner and Homer crunched on a tasty mussel shell. He crunched a lot so I’m not concerned. Just wondered if your dogs ate mussels.

Does anyone know what kind of nut this is and how to loosen it if it’s too tight? im trying to fit a new toilet seat and managed to take this one off the one side but I can’t get the other one off. It’s too tight and being on the underside of the toilet nearly impossible to get to with pliers...

Does anyone know why my hotmail outlook won't let me attach an attachment? I have a report to send out that's already overdue and it won't let me attach the word doc. Feeling frustrated.

Over the last month or so Homer has not been producing a lot of poop. He's been on the same food, same amount as always but his poops are thinner, and more soft that usual. He'll do one smallish normal one, then two or three soft fingers, not much more than a mini poodle would produce. This is...

Silly dog! I do my very best to save the bumblebees that get trapped in our little glass extension. Then Homer comes along and snap, snap gulp and he's swallowed it. How can I save the planet with a bee eating dog, he's obsessed with them. I don't usually wish harm on my dog but I'd love...

Pip lives a few doors down from us. She is a young very pretty Irish terrier. This is her first season. Homer is a bit out of sorts and much more vocal. He growled in the most aggressive way I’ve ever head him at a younger male lab on our walk this afternoon. Best he stays on lead a bit more...

Check out Honeyfitz labs on Facebook they are filming their puppies playing in the garden. It’s live at the moment.

It’s Home‘s Birthday today. He is E-I-G-H-T !!!!!!!! How did that happen so fast?

I’ve quite enjoyed the peace and quiet of lockdown and not really looking forward to things going back to normal. If we could have a new normal what would you wish for.

I noticed this on Homer’s back left leg. He gets rubbed down regularly and I don’t think it was there yesterday. He might have been licking it last night but hasn’t been fussing about it much today. On our walk he was favouring that leg slightly and limped a few times. There’s a button sized...

I've just checked - we have a full pack of 18 rolls and three spare rolls in the loo. How may loo rolls do you have? Let's keep a tally just in case someone runs out we can send some over!

A friend from work recently had to have her 19 year old cat but to sleep. The cat had been unwell and was going downhill so she knew it was time to let her go. She took her cat to a large chain vet practice to be PTS but had a horrendous experience. I won’t give details just yet but what she...

The french lady in the apartment next door has magnetic clips for her dog leads. I’ve never seen these before. They worked really well especially for her to clip leads on to three friendly golden retrievers with a broken finger. Has anyone used these? I can’t find the same ones on the internet.

Dog Learns to Talk by Using a Special Soundboard That Her Human Made Now here’s a training challenge! I know Homer understands a lot of what we tell him or our conversation he listens in on. He also gets so frustrated with me when I don’t understand what he wants. I think a lot of his...

That’s now the third cashmere cardigan he’s chewed through! All because I changed out of work clothes quickly to take him for a walk and left it on the bed. Moral is to walk your dogs in cashmere!

Bobby is my dad’s 13 year old Australian cattle dog cross. Dad has just sent a message saying that he has idiopathic epilepsy and has had a number of seizures recently. He’s now on medication but I don’t know any more. Does anyone know any more about this illness? To be honest Bobby has done...
