Thank you everyone for your replies - I am greatly reassured! I really like the idea of tinned sardines, I've got three or four nice cans of expensive french ones in the cupboard which I keep meaning to eat for my lunch but can't quite bring myself to...the Boy would love them! I'll rotate...

Our whippet, 7 months old, is still looking a bit knobbly - his spine is showing a bit, his ribs are a tad xylophone-like - not too bad and the vet's not worried, but said he could carry a bit more fat. We swapped his food from James Wellbeloved to Burns a month ago, and have kept him on three...

Hi everyone Thanks for the reassurance, sorry it's been a while for me to reply. Things have been a lot better since I've been home, except two major relapses - cocked his leg against the bedroom door yesterday, I'm convinced it was because he was feeling left out and wanted to make a point -...

Hi Our boy is nearly 5 months old and has been completely housetrained since the first few weeks we had him, 3 months ago. The past week I've been on jury service, so have been out all day instead of at home. My husband works at home so The Boy should have had the company he is used to, but...

Thank you - I really thought at the beginning that it was too much, as I knew that as they are growing you have to be careful - but because he seemed to have so much energy, it really seemed as if he needed the time out to run about. The 30/40 minutes I'm talking about does include lots of play...

Thank you - I have suspected we were asking him to do too much, but he seems to have so much energy. Before he was allowed out, we would have at least 3 sessions of "crackerdog" indoors, where he would chase and fetch toys the length of the house for 20 minutes at a time, so we just replaced...

We've got a lovely whippet boy, 3 months old, who has been allowed out for walks for 2 weeks now - something we were all really looking forward to. Unfortunately the first few days were dismally drizzly and cold, but since then the weather has been great, we've got him a coat, and we've tried...
