Sorry you are feeling so despondent Atemas. What you describe are very normal feelings, it IS really hard having a new pup. It's a shame you can't...
It's funny what they choose to pick up, isn't it? My girl loved her toys when she was in full-on crocopup mode ( as well as everything else she...
Hi Jeanine, I don't have experience of moving home with my pup but I've been to stay with my parents a couple of times since I've had her which...
I too am another convert to snuggles on the sofa. My girl is so loving and loves nothing more than to be squashed up against me, head or paws or...
I also have arthritis and in the months leading up to my pup arriving it was so bad I wondered if I was making a big mistake as I worried I would...

My pup is 23 weeks and I leave her in the kitchen behind a babygate (have been doing so for probably 10-14 days). Her crate is in there but if she...
Lots of interesting replies here. I used to mind a friend's GR and she was lovely, chilled, no trouble , none of the lab bounciness now that I...
I don't bath my pup even when she's rolled in something horrible. I don't know the facts but I think bathing can harm their natural oils. My pup...

Plum, at 23 weeks, is 15.1kgs.
