Has anyone bought a Mud Daddy to rinse off very muddy dogs after a walk? If not, any other ideas!

Apparently I need to change my name for security reasons, so can I change Jelinga to Stacia? I have tried to do it myself but failed! I would be grateful if you could do it for me. Much appreciated.

Would be interested in recommendations for an efficient cold coat for Flicka (who might be now called Georgie!).

Flicka ate something while we were out walking and vomited it up later in the evening, in the middle of the living room carpet! It has left a large stain! I have used carpet cleaner and also a product you can buy for puppies pees and poos while housetraining. Neither have worked, anyone any...

I have just heard that Flicka has a date for her keyhole spay on 17th March. I had booked her in for a conventional spay at my vet, but got worried about her jumping and licking her wound, she is a great licker! She lets herself in and out of dog flap to do her toileting and doesn't understand...

Flicka is in season and I have never seen such a swollen vulva poor little mite. I am sure she is feeling a bit fragile, is there anything I can do to cheer her up. It is 30 years since I had a bitch in season and cannot remember how it goes. She is now 5 days of bleeding. Any advice?

Has anyone used a tracker and their dog and if so, do you find it useful?

Flicka came to me on a very cheap food, I have changed her to a Junior Turkey and Rice but wondered about feeding her Salmon and Rice Adult, any thoughts about a salmon diet?

Recommendations please for the best salmon oil for yourg dog. I do have Fish for Dogs one left over from Rourke but wondered if there were other good ones?

I had a very traumatic night, she cried all night. I checked her once, said nothing in and out, went down later, poo and pee in the crate and everywhere else you can think, wall etc. The first night she cried until 2.30 am. Last night as I said, all night. Thankfully I went down a third time...

Rourke was put to sleep this morning, he had ulcers on his hock and despite trying they would not heal. He was lamer as well. I am utterly devastated.

I met a Black Labrador down the lane this morning, visitors to the area. They had a 3 year old B Lab who she had puppy walked but he was returned to her as they said he was more of a pet, he seemed very lively! I asked how did she feel when he had to go off training as a pup, relieved or sad...

‘The vet presented it as: if you care, you pay’: who really profits from poorly pets? A friend sent me this link, I think most of us know about this, but it does make very disturbing reading.

My doorbell went at 7 o'clock yesterday evening and I found a parcel from Amazon on the step, thought, I haven't ordered anything, probably wrong address, so looked closely at label and yes it was my name. I opened the parcel and was overcome with the contents, which all of you have kindly...

Rourke is unable to take Metacam and any medication of that ilk. He is on half a paracetamol twice a day, but I don't think that is effective at the moment. I am wary of trying any of the other drugs as I don't want him to feel 'drugged up'. Does anyone have personal experience of good pain...

I never thought Rourke would reach 11 years old because of his arthritis. He still is very, very lame but seems quite happy. Maybe the stem cell transplants did help.

Has anyone bought one of those 'calming beds' that are very fluffy and soft looking, several makes. I am wondering about getting Rourke one for winter, but am just not sure at the moment. "Bella and Toby" is one I am looking at.

Rourke's lameness has been getting worse and worse since March, he has had various rehab treatments (at great cost) and now the vet has said Stem Cell Replacement, so that is where he is today away at another vet in another town. He is severely lame and I don't really hold out much hope. It is...

See if I can do it a different way - no I can't! I got up photos, but it refused to post. If I do it from 'files' I can't find up to date photos!
