  1. Yes, a roof will be good, it will keep them more secure too. I can't see the first pic very well but is there a chance the dogs could jump on the boxes and then up over the wall- maybe if there was a cat up there?
  2. Shame on the scumbag who stole that child's pup. Glad the pup is back home.
  3. Hey careful what you say in jest - you may start the cogs turning in some dicktwits mind You'll see a litter of 14 of them advertised on here in June.
  4. Hate them. Especially the selfish, greedy basts who take up two spaces in car parks so that no one scapes their pride and joy. This happened to me one day in a forest carpark. There was only one space left. I parked with the right hand side of my car up on a grassy mucky bank, leaving about two inches between the wing mirrors on both cars. So I was half way in a space, half way in the muck, I didn't mind the muck, my car gets washed once a year for the MOT . I got the dogs out and loitered at a picnic table to watch the fun and games when they arrived back to find they could not get in t
  5. I don't think that white dogs ears look overly small, I think they are just folded forward close to its head and because its head is black, it is hard to see in the photo. Anyway.....I think everyone agrees.....don't cut your dogs ears off
  6. She looks very racy. The way you described her I was expecting her to be small and stocky. I reckon you have some pocket rockets on the way
  7. They sound like they might be interesting. Any pictures of the bitch?
  8. Nice mixture there. Good luck, keep us posted on how they do.
  9. He does look in poor condition. Well done for taking him on and giving him a chance. Hope it works out well.
  10. He looks nice and solid. Good luck with him. What size is the piebald? He is a nice shape. Iv'e never been involved in driving, so everytime I look at a horse I always automatically think about how it would feel under a saddle. He looks like he would be a comfortable ride with plenty infront of the saddle.
  11. What colour do you reckon this young one will be?
  12. I think they do just shed hair continuously. To make the house tidier, try spraying them lightly every day and combing them through to remove most of the loose hairs.
  13. Yer ballix! T-bar ...........Thank you for your PM. Read the post again. I did not call you a ballix. My post was referring to your statement that it is the fault of innocent people that they got bitten. And my opinion of it still is the same.
  14. I saw some like that in the pet shop. I think they were labeled dwarf lionheads.
  15. Lovely clear pics. It's amazing what you can see in your own garden just by putting out a wee bit of food for them.
  16. Little steps, little steps. On a lead, tell it to sit. Put your flat hand in its face, tell it to stay. Take just one step away from it. Reinforce the hand signal and verbal "stay" command. If necessary, give it a little check under the chin with the lead. Wait 5 seconds return to the dog and praise it. Slowly build up the time and distance that you leave the dog. You must build the dogs confidence in small steps to reassure the dog that you will return to him. Practise every day for a short period of time. Do not expect too much at first. Most impor
  17. I was set upon by a GSD whilst walking innocently to work one morning. It was off lead on a public footpath in town. "He won't touch you!" shouted the owner from 50 yds away. To add insult to injury I was near run over in the rush hour traffic as I ended up on the road trying to get away from the bast! That was 20 years ago, to this day I don't trust them.
  18. It's still a wee baby....what breed is it? any pictures? Try doing just a few short retrieves to keep it novel and a game. By keeping it on a lead, it keeps you in control and helps you guide the pup to get it right. Play with the dummy then throw it across the room or garden, run with the pup on the lead to begin with, let it lift the dummy then run back to where you started and play with it and praise the pup. Don't sicken the pup by too much repetiton or too high expectations, keep it lighthearted....it has its whole life to learn and improve.
  19. Read the pinned information at the top of the page. The information is in there. Good luck.
  20. My goodness - did they dump the hamsters with you as well? You do a good job trying to help the creatures but it is a shame people were not more responsible with what they take on but I suppose there has always be clowns like that and always will be. Shame on them!
  21. Good luck wth it, suely it will be what you make it. Keep us updated.
