    Three dog heaven!

    Paddy is here for the weekend while his puppy walkers go to a wedding.

    He's eight months old and a lovely, gentle, sensible boy.

    :heart:

    The more dogs the better for me! Good thing I'm a puppy walker or I'd soon turn into a Mad Dog Woman - no comments! ;)

    Tatze accepted him instantly, she's well used to the pups coming and going. Zaba was stand offish at first, but is happily playing with him now.

    It's banned with the new kitchen ,instead he has a flying saucer! Sounds like it could be just as bad but it's not as dense as the wobbled .....

    Aww he lovely. I love his coat colour.

    I was standing outside a supermarket with Loki this morning and was asked if he was going to be a guide dog. :)

    I have a Tangle Teaser. It's brilliant, gets loads out and no flying hair :cool:

    Yes, in about two months, hopefully, if I do my job well :)

    All is well, after a blip with a humpy Zaba!!

    :)

    Tatze is the only only one allowed on furniture - and she knows it!

    Aha! So that was Tatze in the chair, too, in the earlier pic - thought it was Zaba!

    Both boys are looking very handsome.

    The look on Zaba's face: "Um, yes, I did try to hump him, but I was confused and now we're getting on with things, OK?"
    The look on Bruce's face: "I'm staying on my side of the pad...see? Far to my left, here next to the sofa? And I'm acting non-chalant, just so Zaba doesn't get any more...ahem...IDEAS."

    Intrigued to know what bones they were chewing/licking, they didn't look bloody?

    They are hollow, sterilised bones. You buy them full of gunky, fatty stuff, which I scrape out and throw away. Then I fill them with soaked kibble and freeze. The kibble is out of their food allowance. They last a lot, lot longer than Kongs as they can't squidge them.

    So I save the Kongs for when I'm leaving them unsupervised.

    I use the filled bones after meals so that they don't run around and play on full tums, also for settling them when visitors come round.


    :)

    Here is my stash in the freezer lol

    @Boogie, I had forgotten all about those type of bones! I used to buy them and take the nasty gunk out and then give them to the dogs empty. What a good idea to use them like kongs. Right, off to pet shop tomorrow, thanks :D
