  1. I would reccomend brown dog from America
  2. I like this dog a lot, very similar to our JRT x Staff who has a very similar build.
  3. I am looking for a used setup of dog cages suitable for a van or someone who can make a bespoke caging at a sensible price.
  4. The first dog looks very like our saluki cross (see attached photos - second one is to show colouring) Our girls
  5. Thats a f****** mean looking dog I have to agree a very nice "proper" looking rottie, not a pet barrel shaped dogs that you tend to see. I do like having a rottie or two about. It was very reassuring to take my last rottie girl out with me when i walked the dogs where I used to live. She was very good at keeping the drunks and kids at bay on our late evening walks. Our terrier has too much staffy in her to guard properly, she just barks. Our lurcher puts on a very good display for a lurcher and will bark and looks quite scary. The real guards though are the female rottie x, who
  6. Our mates are all to far away or at work too. My parents dont like my dogs and OH's mum who likes them lives too far away and dont drive. My main concern is just having someone to let them into the garden or letting them have acess outside to use the "facilities" if they need to. As they spend most of the day asleep anyhow till I get back home and take them out. I think I will look for a run I can attach to the back door where the dog flap is to make sure they cant get pinched.
  7. My OH has changed job, meaning 3 days a week there will be no-one home the whole day plus the commute to work. Before OH worked from home so the dogs just used the dogflap during the day and ammused themselfs during the day. I am wondering about an outside kennel for them during the day, as I am loathed to just let them use the dog flap when we arent home. I was thinking about getting a dog walker to just pop in on them about lunchtime, but the only one close enough I dont trust with my dogs as she thought letting them run around in a tennis court with glass on the floor and let th
  8. Just to make this clear I am noyt asking for info to grass the woman up, if is was - would have just phoned the RSPCA in the first place. I was asking so next time I could offer some advice before somene does report her. I can do without them poking about nextdoor especially as you can see int our garden from theirs.
  9. Yep as Rob said the escaping thing has now been kinda sorted. I have put some rocks on the fence line where the little buggers kept digging under, they still keep coming through up the end of the garden though as I cant get round the other side of the big tree we have. But they have learned to disappear sharpish now when they hear our back door, and the dogs cant get there to get their side. Spoke to the neighbours about it and they couldn't be bothered to do anything about it, but then again they are a bit odd and no one speaks to them really. Its more just what they look like, I done w
  10. I no nothing about chickens or looking after them so im looking for some advice about my neighbours chickens. When we first moved in we had a bit of an argumemt about her keeping her chickens out of my garden so my dogs dont eat them, so I dont really want to say anything to her unless im sure of my facts. She has about 5 or 6 pet chickens at the end of her garden, recently I have spent a lot of time in our back bedroom (decorating) and I noticed the chickens seem quite bald on their lower half and it seems quite red and irritated. Is this a normal chicken thing or does it mean they have a
  11. I used to order my worm/flea treatment from pet care mart, but recently their website doesnt seem to be working and I really getting short of stuff for my 4 dogs now. I am trying to avoid going to the vets, as they get very funny about doing a prescription for stuff as they lose money but I really dont want to pay loads to them for the stuff. I would prefer to contunue using the products I use currently, Stringhold, Advantage, Milbemax and Drontal.
  12. I really do dispair with some of the pet dog owners about, where I walk it just seems to be people with fat labs and springers etc. There is a bloke over the road who just lets his fat lab wander up the road when he is doing stuff and the garage door is open, there are also neightbours a few doors up who are foreign and hate dogs so its fun when the lab ends up in their garden There is also a woman I used to be friends with who has two VERY fat labd and a dog and people agressive terrierish type dog, who has the nerve to tell me im cruel to my dogs for training them out of their issues an

    parrot

    I dont know how much you know about parrots, so sorry if im teaching you suck eggs here. The parrots that are most likely to talk properly (a budgie can copy - but its not very clear) are the larger birds like african greys and macaws BUT these are also the guys that will live about 70 years on average. The smaller birds dont tend to speak particularly well BUT again there is no guarentee any bird will speak. Also make sure you have any parrot you buy checked by a vet for heath, as they can get very sick very quickly and end up costing you ££££ for specialist treatment. Try this si
  14. Not too sure about his cross as got him 2nd hand, I think he is mostly saluki x grey. I thought it was quite slow comparing the greyhound times, but the bloke at the track (running the hare) said he seemed quick for what he was.
