She seems to be straining alot after pooing, and yes there's an anal type smell too.. think we'll stick to the garden this week, the way she...
is this normal? Last Sunday it started, with pink clear fluid, last day or so it's darker, more bloody and she is frankly quite stinky.. sort of...
Holly has just come into season at 7.5 months
Bizarrely since I posted this Holly seems to have calmed down quite a lot. I've been careful about what we have been doing, to try to avoid...
I live in naive hope ...
I've been monitoring closely and the behaviour is definitely triggered by frustration / overstimulation. I'm now being careful about what we do...

I wasn't really prepared because we'd started with all the usual sit, heel, recall using rewards.. then suddenly we were tying dogs to posts and...
That was it; I've never tied her to anything ever before, so to tie her up, then walk away that far TWICE without being able to offer her any...
It is tricky. What I really want is to get Holly's recall sorted, around other dogs in a controlled way, and get her used to being around other...
