    Weather

    High winds and rain here. I'll have to replace a few fences this time. Even Toby is not happy to go out and the others flat out refused this evening. Most unlike them! Oh, the joys of Global warming!

    We had really heavy hail here today. It was rainy then blowy and then hail. This is not properly trained weather!

    Puppy School

    Exactly this. Sadly I necer had any part in Poppy's, Alex's or Toby's puppy time so I've just made up for it since. Now they are MY dogs (or I am their mum). I am training them, caring for them, paying their vet bills and investing emotionally in them.

    Amber and Toby sleep under the covers. Oh's covers. We have a six foot bed and since he likes to be warm and I like to be cool we have different covers. These two like to be warm. Poppy sleeps on their sofa and Alex sleeps without covers but near me. They, like me, like to be cold.

    Not Pleased

    I agree with this. I've had dogs that have wee'd when a bit excited. One of them did wee on my bed. I think the sheer excitement combined with a full bladder just gets too much for them sometimes.

    Toby's Eighth Charmed Life

    Something the wonderful @Emily_Babbelhund said to me has resonated with me. Apparently in one of the shelters he was in he was housed with a blind dog. This dog got confused and bit his back end during his sleep. I am a psychologist and I now, after careful thought, think he may react to stress...

    Ah Senor Carbon. You are indeed a most handsome Spaniard. I am also. I live with another Spaniard and I think he is not so handsome but is loud and I like this. Senora Nelly is a lovely looking lady. She is, as my momma says, sooooooo cute. Toby.

    Thoughts on Adaptil collars

    As far as I'm concerned they are rubbish! I've used both the plug in and the collar. Neither worked to any measurable degree. I've found lavender oil to be, at least to some degree, better.

    Toby's Eighth Charmed Life

    He has been wormed by his last adopter. His worming pills came with him. Sciatica is something I intend to ask about. I think it is time for a full scan and maybe xrays. It is breaking my heart!

    Toby's Eighth Charmed Life

    No. The vet has seen him twice already and has emptied his anal glands ( he had infected anal glands once before). The only thing they found was a little bit of stiffness in his back legs. I shortened his walks and front loaded yumove because of this.

    Toby's Eighth Charmed Life

    I really had thought we had turned a corner with this pain in Toby's back end but we are having a bad night with it again tonight. The symptoms are that he will leap up and spin around snapping at his rear end. Sometimes he will whine for a while afterwards. This can happen while he is awake or...

    Toby's Eighth Charmed Life

    I'm not sure whether it's the yumove or the shorter walks but he is so much better. He is a lovely, happy little soul now. :inlove::tail::pull:
