Glad to hear he was saved and found a home with you! When I got Gracie she was 3 years old and took about a month or two to get into a good eating...

oh bless you for being there for him. there will be tonnes of advice that will flood in from others far more experienced than me. i would just be...

ah . . . the newspaper, a reference to sir ian dunbar i think. :o as our babies are of close age, i recognise it , we probably read it at the same...

Thank you so much Joyce and Pat. I'll probably get one of those harnesses as it will help with one of Oliver's PT exercises. I have to lightly...

The person who made my harnesses was not a “professional” – anyone could replicate this. The harness was similar to this: ...

Sorry to hear this Bev. I know you are doing all possible for Oliver and making desisions with his best interests in mind. I saw a sling on the Drs...

Pat, does your friend still make the harnesses? They sound much less complicated to use than a wheelchair. His neurologist is not ready to have him...

Just have time for a quick reply, but I'll try to write more this evening. It would be uncommon if the surgery center had wheelchairs or other...

I would never judge you, I would/ will do the same if my 11 year old is ever in that situation. I just saw a recent video of a rescue from the...

I only beat her after I rubbed her nose in it! <grin />. Thanks for the reply. I think it may be connected. She's had a big couple of weeks. I...

Please tell me your joking about beating her with a newspaper? Cavaliers and many other breeds of dog do much better with positive train methods....

Good luck. I do hope the clinic is able to help with providing some wheels for Oliver. Recovery from spinal surgery is slow, so fingers crossed for...

Try a dehydrated raw food that you mix with water - it's much tastier, and healthier, than a dry kibble (although I cant say personally but the dogs...

Two is always better than one! :D. Lady was 6 months old when I brought home 3 year old Gracie. Getting an older dog made the transition much easier,...

those were great questions, and all ones that i have been wondering about for a while, so it was great to see so many positive and really helpful...

thank you everyone. we have to wait another day unfortunately as he had a poorly tummy last night, and we were up and down the garden with him a fair...

One caveat about colors- if you have matching dogs the furballs are all the same color, if you have different colors (tri/Blenheim, or something) you...

Thanks to all for the comments! I think I'm pretty convinced that I want a second CKC. Hubby is pretty much on board too just a little more...

Bentley was our very first house pet ever so we had no idea what we were doing. I was feeding him 3 times a day and adding a tiny piece of chicken to...
