    Found mice!

    It must've been fresh as it was at the top of the garden and I was out there clearing up after the hedges had been done. It definitely wasn't there 30mins prior.

    Found mice!

    Over past couple weeks I've caught the dog nibbling something in the garden maybe 2-3x but when I've removed said item it's always looked like something mushy/brown so I've presumed it's some animal poop or fur ball or something. Anyway today she's at it again so I've took the thing away but it...

    How to stop dog from going mental at strangers who knock/come into house?

    Nobody's come round with a dog but she's very dog orientated outside the house and always wants to greet them. If we were to see a stranger with a dog she would most likely wag her tail at them and accept a stroke from owner versus someone without a dog she would avoid/duck away from them.

    How to stop dog from going mental at strangers who knock/come into house?

    Honestly I doubt it. I've messaged a few in the past month or so and not heard back from any. Originally I asked if we could have the initial meet outside of the house, perhaps on a walk, and for them to come back to the house with us after explaining she's nervous due to bad experiences with...

    How to stop dog from going mental at strangers who knock/come into house?

    I have a 2yo crossbreed that barks like crazy at anyone who knocks or (on the rare occasion) comes into our house. She is fine with people she meets without, prefers to be left alone by humans unless she gets chance to warm up to them like the locals in the park. In short she's unsure of...
