I don't really feel able to contribute anything other than you seem to be doing a great job keeping your dog happy and pain free. Thinking of you.
This time last year I had had Inky about a month. I had thought long and hard about getting another Labrador especially as I was now on my own and...
No, but when he's walking on the lead I'd like to be able to walk past without him reacting to other dogs. He's much better now if they are at a...
What a difficult Christmas they must have had
Thank you for your helpful reply. As usual, I seem to get half of something but I feel clearer about where I'm aiming now! You mention a toggle on...
Inky loves to chew vet bed wherever it was. We tried a piece of carpet, chewed a bit. Now we have a door mat, not the bristle kind but the...

Thank you. I've noticed he's slipped on staying on the place so I'm thinking I need to reinforce that again and/or proof more. He's enthusiastic...
Hope you don't mind me asking a question on this thread too. Reading Snowbunny's thread about boundaries, could I ask you a question! Am I right...
I use "go place" to send Inky to a boundary place where I expect him to stay until released. Sometimes I feed him on the boundary but generally I...
poor Inky has kennel cough. He was up most of the night with what sounded like a cross between whooping cough and croup, no idea where he got it...
Thinking of you
She is gorgeous, hope she's enjoying her belated birthday.
Hope she's still improving and was able to enjoy the snow. It sent Inky into mega zoo my mode!
Our last lab would occasionally roll in old fish on the beach, we had to do something so I hand washed him with a J cloth by the kitchen sink....
