    @SwampDonkey what about scent work? Might be better suited to you? Rosie and Ternaya could tell you about it I'm sure.

    I was just teasing - I'm sure you'll find something that suits you better with no risk of falling involved. :)

    I was thinking the same thing! First I thought it was just so he could do a routine with his face covered, then when his helmut came off, I thought, wow, that guy is living out a serious Russell Crowe/Gladiator fetish right there at Crufts.

    Hey, more power to him! :D

    So I just found out that all bitches are "vetted" at the time of registration when we go to our obedience trial next week. Apparently this involves a tissue being wiped against their "lady bits" to ensure that they're not in season. Looks like I've got a week to work on some desensitisation :eek:

    I'd just jam my desexing invoice in their face lol, surely that's good enough?

    My puppy has gone to be neutered today :(

    I took him in and he was whining when I had to leave so I had the sniffles all the way to work :(

    I can ring at 2pm to see how he's getting on.

    I really hate daycare right now.

    Apparently not. Had a quick try this evening and, other than the "what on earth did you just do to me" look, she wasn't really bothered.

    Thanks everyone :)

    I've just rang them and they said he's doing well, just a bit wobbly on his little feet.

    Can pick him up at 4pm. He's just getting cuddles and fuss for the rest of the day! :*

    He's home! He was supposed to be dozy but nothing beats the Tasmanian devil gene so he's not particularly sleepy.

    If we manage a week with this cone it will be a miracle. He's already chewing at it!

    We've bought him this hoping it might be more comfortable. But I've got a feeling he's either going to pop it or get it over his head.

    Hehe hopefully he doesn't eat any of the cones. This blow up cone ended up not working for Axel as he could still reach to lick. Hopefully Stanley can't! Just watch to make sure before he's left alone :) glad he's home and happy!
