I have always 'known' when the time is right, you wake up one morning and you just know. I am so sorry you are in the position you are, it is a...
I had a rescue dog when he was 13 months old, he had only lived in Gundog kennels, no outlook except a brick wall, a barrel to sleep in and a...
Great idea. I did put one tea towel which I had frozen and then let melt until it was liquid but cold and then lay it over his back. Seems a...
I agree with @Jojo83, but the problem isn't insurmountable. I had a nervous Lab and he always barked at my Granddaughter but would be an angel...
What a relief, so very pleased for you.

I always take Rourke's collar off when he swims and then when he finishes put it straight back on again. I did walk into a lake, in above my...
