I reserved my dog before it was born without knowing the price. When i found out the price £600 i respectfully withdrew citing that it was more than i payed for my other grey that was killed by hit and run a few months earlier. The breeder said it wasn't all about money but a good loving home...

My two lads will be 4 years in July and are unnetured. I plan to keep them so. After all we don't castrate young boys. I had to leave one vet practise because i refused to have them done and was fed up of being told that they knew what was best for my dogs. If i could find a vet that would do...

Josie i'm so glad to hear he's back to his old wonderful self. It's also good to know that's he all fit and well and you can rest easy knowing that it was only a bug and nothing sinister. Enjoy your beautiful boy . Lennor

Great news it seems he's on the mend. I've not heard of any bug going around the likes of poor Dennis. Hopefully he'll keep improving and get back to his old lively self very soon.

Hi Josie, I really hope that Dennis will come out of this episode hale and hearty. Our dogs bring joy and happiness to our lives as an integral part of our family. If my boys were ill and i didn't know what ailed them I'd be beside myself with worry. I do hope that all will be well. It's...

Hi Josie, There must be an underlying problem somewhere. Ask the vet for a full health check including full blood works. If all comes back clear then he's gotten picky in his old age and he would eat when he feels hungry. Just offer him small morsels of his favourite foods perhaps he could be...

Hello Josie. There's another cooked food that's pretty good its Nature diet . My dogs have this when they go to kennels. It has no additives or preservatives and you can buy a couple of single boxes from Waitrose to try. I hope you find something he will eat soon. It such a worry when our pets...

Hello Josie. This could happen. Give him half of his meal in the evening. I started him on chicken and beef. I didn't give his full meal just 3/4 in the morning and half in the evening. WolfTucker do a variet pack you can try so you can work out which is his favourite . Perhaps you can give...

Hi I fostered Rex at 16months and kept him . He was really thin with very dry skin and dandruff with a very rough coat. I started him on raw the next morning with no ill effects . Within two weeks he put on weight and his coat and skin had improved . Hes now 3 1/2 years old and is the picture...

UPDATE on Rex dry skin. It's a little more than a month since I started Rex on coconut oil in his diet . His skin is much better and the shedding is greatly reduced. I am so happy i could hug you all for your sterling advice. Thanks again. Rex looking wonderfully flake free

Rex is 34kg large show stock greyhound so maybe 3/4 of a spoon.Thanks so much. Will get some in the morning and start straight away

Thanks for your response. They don't have many baths as they don't smell. Rex doesn't roll in muck but Morgan loves to rub his head in fox stinky so on occasion has a head wash. Will get some coconut oil from Sainsbury

Thanks. I will try it. How much do i give him an how often. I've also started Brewers Yeast and hav seen no results so will stop and try coconut oil. Please let me know how much and what brand . Once every 3-6 months or when they need it. Greys don't smell much so they can go a long time...

Recently Rex is suffering from very flaky skin. He's always suffered from excessive shedding. Lately though, i've noticed an abundance of dandruff when brushing. I use FURminator deshedding ultra premium shampoo . Both dogs have the same diet and use the same product and have soft shiny coats...

I quite often use taxi when going to the vet hospital. The company ( dog friendly company) i use advise me to bring a cover for the seat and a dog seatbelt attachment. The seatbelt is a legal requirement I'm told

I agree about the squeaker. I've got one that came out of a stuffed duck i use on night walks for home recall . Brilliant!!!

Unfortunately we live in a world of people suffering from entitlement syndrome who thrive on making life difficult for others Give me my dogs over people anyday They're far more courtious than most

I agree with you at 9 yrs he doesn't need a change to a different raw. He's happy so that's all that matters. The bonus of a soft coat is delightful and if hes cuddly like Rex a joy to hug on the sofa while watching TV at night. I'm widowed so lovely companions. I think sight hounds are the best
