Thanks everyone, very reassuring. She's definitely disorientated. All the points about crates are interesting too, I can see how it would make...
Hi everyone, Maisie had spay op today and is thoroughly miserable. She doesn't seem to be in pain - isn't whining or whimpering but she's just...
Yes I'm sure you're right. :)
Hi I have what I'm sure is a very basic question - our 9 month old lab has had her first season and so we're obviously keeping her away from...
We're experiencing exactly the same issue with Maisie (now 8 months). We have a perfect fit harness which she used to be fine with and then all of...

Could I ask for some advice - our 5 month old lab is about 70% reliable on verbal command to recall unless she has found something dead to eat...
Yes lots of fuss and lots of treats.
hi again, so we got the outside pen set up and have been putting her in it, not making eye contact, making it boring etc. Unfortunately we've not...
The pen sounds like a great idea, because that's exactly what we're doing now (waiting around, only to have her wee in the house). And thanks...
This is all so useful, many thanks She is particularly timid so we definitely need to be mindful of that with everything. The reason for...
