    Thanks for your nice words, I do think they are gorgeous but every dog owner thinks that don't they! :- " :D I tell Asha how beautiful she is every day as when I got her she was one big bald scab, having been left untreated with demodectic mange for months and she had an unknown gluten...

    Dog Walking - Is it okay to let your dogs run to other dogs?

    I am glad I am not on my own then! I think there are 3 types of 'offender'. 1 - They have no control over their dog. They shout and shout and shout at it then if it does return to them or they do come and retrieve it, they grab hold of it and chastise it???? 2 - They have a dog that wants to...

    Dog Walking - Is it okay to let your dogs run to other dogs?

    I don't know if I am on my own in my thoughts on dog walking so thought I ask for other opinions on whether it is ok to allow your dog to run up to other dogs. Asha and Stanely (my dogs) are friendly dogs with lots of doggy friends who we often walk with and look after in our home. I consider...

    Advice Needed

    Thanks for your kind words Urchin. We moved recently so it is a new veterinary clinic and the first time I have seen this vet. We live in a town now and I have not seen many greyhounds/lurchers etc down the park so maybe she is not used to these 'funky' rhythms as you put it :) Asha has...
