Cassies amount started lower, I built up to this. It was 3/4 teaspoon twice a day with 3 dash of pepper sprinkled the cinnamon on it and added it to her mince. My dogs are both raw fed, so it was easy to get her to take it, but I did start slowly as one teaspoon of turmeric looks a lot in her...

I used it for Cassie, I made it myself. It was actually my vet who recommended it a few years ago. She ended up smelling of cat pee but the remedy for that was to add some cinnamon to the mix, it has to be ceylon cinnamon not the stuff you find in the supermarket. Cassie had this for two years a...

Next doors cat decided to visit our fully enclosed garden( it came through the gate). Cupar was lying beside me when we spotted it. The chickens had been out in the garden. Before I could react, Cupar gave chase, the cat turned away from the chickens and I shouted Cupars name, this is not my...

I just wish someone would teach a lot of children how to behave. Some parents think that everyone else should be entertaining their kids. Using positive teaching methods should be used whatever creature it is, be it human or animal. We need to change the wording. I'm not training my dogs, I...

I've just read this and I'm so happy to read all of this. It's lovely to read about dogs who are scared from life and with the help of caring owners and a lot of work, can overcome these fears. The fireworks stuff is another major achievement. I am so pleased for you.

I'm the same. The most important thing to me at that time was recall, I had to get that right and I didn't focus enough on walking nicely on just a collar. I regret it big time now. Cupar stiffens when the harness goes on, so it only gets used when we're doing all lead walking and when I'm...

Thanks for the video. Well done for showing it. It is hard to see what caused this reaction but I'm inclined to agree about the RG. As for telling Shadow no and getting down stays, I had a trainer get me doing that years ago, it didn't work and my instinct told me it was wrong but my brain told...

I'm going to second all of this. Shadow is Cupar. My last pup, socialisation was never heard of. Never had any issues with her. Cupar was socialised around everything and dogs are the only thing we have a problem with. Adolescence other dogs reactions to him changes and then he changed after the...

Sign the Petition I have added the petition to change the law regarding micro chipping.

My MIL was forever telling me when my children were small, " the housework will wait for you" served me well then.

I arranged during the week to go for a walk with my neighbour and the only other dog Cupar plays with. This would have been our second walk with them. We arranged to meet at 10am but it had been raining here for hours and the visibility was bad as well as flooded roads. My friend stopped by my...

@Natalie ,Cassie doesn't digest bone the way she used to, I've found chicken wings to be a good compromise as a one 50g chicken wing gives her roughly 23g bone, she only gets about 250g of food a day. I never get any bone fragments from the wings but we do if she's given lamb ribs. They are...

OK I my two are raw fed, their diet is meat, bones, offal only. I'm answering the offal part, yes there is a danger of adding too much offal, it's the vitamin A. Offal only counts as 10% of the diet. Too much liver etc can also cause diarrhea.

I never considered the process of getting the oil into capsules, so it must be treated somehow. I use different vegetable oils all cold pressed for making face creams and they all go rancid quickly. Fresh fish starts to go slimy faster than fresh meat. So nothing scientific just my common...

Everyone has different opinions on what works for their dog. Yours is similar to how I treat Cassie arthritis. I used yumove but it's expensive for what it is. I added turmeric to her diet diy, the Green lipped mussel is cheaper if the word dog is not written on it, it's the same stuff for...

We've used Pets Go Free Cottage Holidays | Book Dog Friendly Holiday Cottages for Rent I've never stayed in a property near a Loch and the only property on the coast had no wifi. I know not much help but not all areas have a decent wifi, my daughter lives outside Dumfries and her wifi is slow...

Thank you so much for sharing this. Apart from the fact that Shadow could be Cupar, it's good to see another dog who's further on and it gives me such hope for Cupars future in where I can walk him. I still think you are braver than me but I can see having the muzzle on Shadow is less stressful...

Definitely interested in reading how you got on with Shadow. Thank you

My bad, I've read my post again and it reads Max shows teeth, so sorry for that badly written post. Max does NOT show signs of aggression, in fact he's the opposite, he just wants to play with everything. Cupar is fine walking behind and when Max stops to sniff something, i reward Cupar for...

Cupar is confusing me. My goal at the moment is to get Cupar to a stage where he can walk past on lead, all dogs without reacting. My eldest granddaughter (she's 19 years old) and I walk together with her mums dog, he's a wee sweetheart Cocker spaniel. Cupar hates him, they're both entire, Max...
