Well I seem to be the only person left in the world who thinks cages for dogs are unnatural and inhumane. I'm really hoping that some research...
Loki goes crazy guarding his bone from them. We also enjoy 'hunting' - with me armed with my electric tennis racket - it's the closest he'll ever...
Just realised I wrote wormers instead of flea treatment in my original post!
I did try a collar on my cat and it didn't work so I can't see how it could be effective on something the size of a Labrador. Always very...
While I don't agree with giving chemical wormers to dogs that don't have fleas, I do think you have to treat an infestation properly. With my...
If you're only doing a bit of raw feeding I wouldn't feed liver - needs introducing slowly and can lead to diarrhoea. Even a complete mince might...
Well it certainly looks delicious and varied and you say your dog is happy and healthy so my entirely uneducated opinion is it's probably fine. My...
The other thing I think you should do is have a look at a rescue centre. Partly cos I think an adult dog would be easier for you with your living...
Is it possible your dog just hasn't got the memo that went round about 10 years ago ( here in the UK) that dogs are supposed to love crates? Mine...
Mine's obsessed with water too and I posted a question just yesterday on the subject. we swim in fresh water or the sea so we don't have chlorine...
Dogs dont chew kibble. if you're worried about cleaning teeth or eating too fast feed some meaty bones. Try lamb necks or ribs - I get them free...
That's good to hear. I think we are both at our happiest when in the water so I had a moment of panic when I thought I might be overdoing it!
I live next to a river and Loki swims pretty much every day. I'm training for an open water swim myself so Im in the river with him for about 30...
I don't have any experience of puppies as both my dogs were adolescent when I got them. I do have a lot of experience of a bitey dog though. I...
Mine was 25 kg at 6 months and wouldn't tolerate being lifted for 1 second. I'm fairly fit but don't enjoy carrying 25kg sacks of grain on level...
Absolutely not necessary to use a pinch collar and I think you can really damage your relationship with your dog if you keep causing them pain. My...
I hate being negative but I have read so many forum posts since I joined from people who have underestimated how difficult young labs are. I...
I second Total Recall. I'm not saying my dog has perfect recall in all circumstances now but it's pretty impressive most of the time. I'm not...
Are you sure you really want a lab? They are big, energetic dogs, not really suited to living in flats in my opinion. What would you do if it was...
I feed raw and my dog gets a huge variety of different meats( Venison and duck are certainly not considered exotic here and along with pheasant,...
