Hello! And a warm welcome from me!
We need photos! :)
I have to say, me too. I don't think Charlie has ever had any medication whatsoever that has not been either suggested or prescribed by a vet....
On parts of Wimbledon Common, and the royal parks, a person needs a licence to be a dog walker, and there are additional by-laws in place...
I think, if you can find a trusted dog walker, that's best. I have interviewed a LOT of dog walkers, and I meet an awful lot out and about where I...
I looked up the ingredients when you mentioned it - I'm none the wiser! And there is no data sheet.....you'd need a vet that has looked into it.
Hey, don't knock the Orvis beds! :) I think it sounds like time for a vet visit - for advice, for ear checks, for a referral to a behaviourist,...

I've also been turned down by a couple of rescues, but have not even received replies to my carefully filled in forms documenting my suitability...

Hi @MF - it is very common to see common ancestors in a pedigree. At some point, the number of ancestors for all pedigree dogs will converge onto...
I know it's bad for dogs to lick people, I just can't care about it though. Charlie mouths hands and feet too (very, very gently). I get mildly...
Charlie is refusing to get into bed because he doesn't have a "turn down pillow treat". :D:D:D But I reckon just giving him a bedtime seabiscuit...
I'm so sorry to hear this - I can tell from your post he was loved very, very much. Tell us more about him, when you feel able.
Well, you can do all those things from books, but classes do help. How about scent nosework? That's something you can both do from books and with...
I'm so sorry to hear this, you cared about him, worried about him, and loved him right to the end of his life. At least he is not in pain now.
As someone who regularly describes their dog as 'excitable', I enjoyed this. https://thesciencedog.wordpress.com/2016/04/05/excitable-you/...
