Ahhh, darling Hugo! Our puppies have both grown out of earlobe nibbling 🥹

I always think noses must be so tempting to gnaw on.

At least there's a positive starting point, eh? Carbón really is the consummate gentleman - what a boy.

It’s really tough, they do find ways to remind us that we’re all - humans and dogs - individuals with quirks and foibles and neuroses, eh? You’re doing what you can with the time and energy available, and it sounds like you’re making a good (kind, compassionate) go of things so don’t beat...

They sound like my sort of people.

Would that be so a search and rescue dog can get the scent of your dog if they went missing?

These aren’t worth the money in my view - you’re not protecting your dog in any way, as the only scenario where DNA would be useful is if there was a national coordinated database to match a sample against - which doesn’t exist. And what sort of sample would you have in that scenario? It all...

Thinking of everyone and those with friends and family in Florida and the US Gulf coast preparing for the arrival of Hurricane Milton on Wednesday. It’s looking very worrying at the moment x

Never as bad as if it were a Labrador 😬

How annoying that she’s still bothering Carbón, but that's a good strategy to give her some home time and sounds like it’s working well for everyone. It’ll be good for everyone to have a little break (even if it’s the dentist)!

I think you’re spot on Emily, lovely work - and if you just wear Maja as a scarf for the next 2 weeks then she’s a lovely accessory 😆

Well done for keeping an eye and noticing it, hopefully it’s good news on Tuesday - sending lots of lambies :thelambiesarecoming:

Mother dogs correct their pups until they’re independent, in that very specific context. This is not the same as dogs being responsible for other dogs in their space. Similar to humans, it would inappropriate to expect people to discipline children that were nothing to do with them - it’s up to...

I disagree with this. It’s not our dog’s job to train other dogs. We’re the guardians who control their spaces, so I think it’s very much our responsibility to - as far as possible - set everyone up for success, or at least to keep everyone safe and unmolested.

So - I sympathise very hard with you on this. We have ongoing but improving cohabiting challenges, not the same but I feel your concerns and they’re completely valid. My one big reflection is that you will find a groove - whatever needs to happen, if you need Maja to accompany you on trips to...

We’ve been using this https://www.viovet.co.uk/PureFlax-Flax-Seed-Oil-for-Dogs/c17575/?quick_find=352848&utm_source=sag&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=surfaces_UK&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjw3vO3BhCqARIsAEWblcDYekeTRNDva4uyS2ilOFdorihlfMEHolvbS0ft2hXzMBsFPlfdOeIaAqwuEALw_wcB Which is a lot...

This is massive Sonia, compared to where you were a few short weeks ago. You’re bringing her on leaps and bounds, although entirely understandable to want to go faster! Keep the faith, you’ll get there soon x

I think the biggest risk is in sensitive areas like soft tissue and moist areas (eurgh!) such as mouth, throat and eyes - in those places, swelling and irritation can cause severe complications like closing airways so need prompt action.

Poor Hunter! I'd keep an eye on it, but if it's not bothering him it should be fine. If it's swollen you can put a cold pack on it?

This is awesome @SteffiS , I’m absolutely certain this is down to you and your efforts in helping Toffee manage his big feelings. You clearly are reading him so well, and he’s responding likewise. Hip hip hooray! Also WHAT a handsome boy he is :inlove:
