This is a place to talk and remember our four legged family members who we’ve loved and lost. Our dogs are such a big part of our lives and loosing them can be so painful. If it’s a recent loss or even an old memory that you would like to share then please do. Remember, we are all here for you

Happy Christmas Everyone! I just wanted to say a few thank you’s A HUGE thank you to @JudyN for being a fantastic moderator. This year has been hard for me loosing Den and the forum wouldn’t have been the same if it wasn’t for Judy who has done a brilliant job helping me and helping lots of...

I’ve just seen on my local Facebook feed that a new zebra foal born during lockdown has died at Noah’s Ark Zoo. They believe the firework displays scared the foal and when it spooked it ran straight into its enclosure wall and died on impact :-( it’s so sad.

Hello All, just wanted to say I’m sorry if you’ve had trouble accessing the forum today we’ve had some technical glitches! Should be back in action now. Hope all your dogs are ok over firework night x

I can’t quite believe I’m here writing this and it’s the most difficult time I’ve ever experienced. As many of you know Dennis was very poorly last year and after lots of tests and vet trips we finally discovered he had severe IBD. After his diagnosis we thought we were in the clear, he was...

Dens back legs have in the last few weeks become so weak. It’s so awful seeing him struggle to get up :-( He tried to get up the stairs when we weren’t behind him offering support and he fell down them. It was so awful (he was ok) He’s on Yumove but does anyone else have any recommendations?

Dennis is SO frustrating. I’m trying not to get stressed by it but it’s getting me down. Last week he ate amazingly - although he’s gone off the meat version on Z/D we got him the dry version and he was eating really well. This week he has barely picked at his food and it’s starting to show in...

Does anyone else have this issue?....

Talking about our naughty dogs and their food antics got me thinking.... what is the most embarrassing thing your dog has done? Post your stories below....

Does anyone else’s dog like to sleep in strange positions? please share! :-)

Hey everyone, I just wanted to let you all know that @JudyN has kindly accepted a role as moderator for the forum - just in case you start to notice her bossier side :p She's a big part of this forum and always provides lots of fantastic advise and help to anyone who needs it so thank you Judy...

So it seems we’re still having a battle with Dennis and his IBD :-( He’s still on the Hills Z/D which isn’t going to change anytime soon due to his sensitive stomach but he doesn’t take any pleasure in eating it which breaks my heart. I can tell that he’s really hungry but the minute I put his...

I love spring and seeing all the birds fluttering around and the blossoms on the trees. saw this handsome chap this morning...

Dennis is very lucky and has always been able to come to the office with us when we work but it got me thinking.... I bet lots of humans are now spending more time with their dogs that they did before. It makes me wonder if when (eventually) things go back to normal whether lots of these dogs...

Hello, Can anyone recommend a reasonably good priced hypoallergenic food? Dens currently on Hills z/d but at £78 every 12 days (that’s with 15% discount) it’s bankrupting us! The vet has told us that dogs with IBD struggle to digest proteins. If we can’t find anything else then we’ll have...

Has anyone seen this programme? what are your thoughts? watching it now and there’s a family with a cocker spaniel puppy and seeing their 3 year old child with the puppy is making me so annoyed! She just smoothers the puppy and never allows it downtime. Even when they put the puppy in her...

Hello All, I get a lot of requests for dissertation questionnaires to be posted on the forum. I wanted to gauge everyone’s thoughts on this and whether you: like doing them? Don’t like doing them? Don’t particularly care seeing them in the chats? The only thing I don’t like is when they...

Hello all, So the saga continues with Den... Last update was that ultrasound and bloods hadn’t shown up anything. So they put Den on Z/D diet which I mixed with Naturo (as that was what he was having before) to make the switch. In this time his poos became solid again. I put this down to...
