    Looking to rehome

    Just occasionally, almost-perfect dogs turn up in rescues, so don't rule this out They do indeed. One of my friends fostered sight unseen a rescue from Eastern Europe. The dog came straight to her from the journey across Europe. She was very stressed and scared (understandably) for the first...

    Dog magazines

    No. In fact the only time I read magazines is at the hairdresser. Not that I know who they are writing about half the time!

    Dog cough

    Fingers crossed they do their job :)

    Dog cough

    How is she now? Kennel cough is very very contagious and if you let your dog drink from the communal water bowls you see around the place, the chances of them picking up the virus are high (and it's like human flu, many strains and evolves all the time). I always carry my own water and bowl...

    Dogs sunbathing

    Sunburn isn't really a risk for Harri but his thick coat does mean he gets very hot. He is entirely self regulating though. When he gets uncomfortable he will voluntarily seek shade.

    Pooping blood.... again.

    C Could be - I give Harri a few spoons of butternut squash ( easier to get than tinned pumpkin for me) on the rare occasion he gets a runny tummy. It seems to sort him out really quickly. Glad everything seems better :)

    Digging

    I've given up! My lawn is full of scrapes. There is a patch he's allowed to dig but he doesn't want to dig there!

    Harri the Welsh Terrier's Diary

    Mum says she's really proud of me. I've just passed the assessment to be a Pets as Therapy (PAT) dog! Now Mum just has to pass her part of the assessment. I'm not sure what being a PAT dog is though. Mum says she thinks I'll enjoy it - and we had to give the tuna cake recipe to my assessor! A

    Flea treatment

    I saw those reviews too but we'd tried the herbal route and it didn't work long term. Harri had a horrific reaction to the oral medication and there is no antidote. The stuff was in his system poisoning him for at least 3 months if not longer. At least I felt I could remove the collar at the...

    Pooping blood.... again.

    Vegetarian here but Harri gets fresh meat. I salve my conscience by buying the most ethically raised meat I can.

    Flea treatment

    Harri wears a Seresto collar too now. We can undo it - his collar size varies quite a bit depending on when he last went to the groomer....

    Exciting new app for dog owners

    Amazing! I've also been offered crystals you charge by plugging into the mains. Incredible what you can get nowadays

    What are your thoughts on Reiki for animals??

    I have friends who are practitioners and have tried it on me. I remain to be convinced I'm afraid.

    Hello and volunteering/paid work

    Hello there - have you tried Homepage - Secret World Wildlife Rescue This was one of my favourite charities when I was down Taunton way. I'm just afraid it may be a bit far from you.

    Same old, same old

    I'm really lucky as I have miles of footpaths locally I can take so we can ring the changes constantly (even if we just do a walk backwards). Harri loves his familiar walks but it's me that gets bored so we do travel. I can do a walk about once a week... He's a stopper and sniffer so our usual...

    Need advice ... my dog has crusty sores on his belly

    I used Sudocrem on Harri when he had a sore rash on his tummy( vet agreed). Worked a treat and much cheaper than the prescription soothing creams. It cleared up as soon as he left it alone and hasn't recurred so the cause remains a bit of a mystery.

    What does your vet think?

    Harri the Welsh Terrier's Diary

    Mum and Dad are looking very puzzled. That horrid long line is all broken and the bit which has the clip for my harness is missing so it can't be used. Isn't that a shame? Me? I'm saying nothing.....

    Flipping wind!

    I'm getting tired of it too. Harri is not a lover of wind and keeps going on the infamous terrier sit down strike.
