Ahhh this is wonderful. Lots of positive thoughts being sent your way. Hope it works out.I know some of you know about me having to re-home a pup which broke my heart, an opportunity has come up for a 12 month, it's close to me so I'm taking my other dog to meet her dreckly to see how it goes!!
Thank you, it went ok, my dog had 4 of them to contend with, he was good as gold, she's very nervey and wouldn't leave her owner alone, but she was abit feisty with my boy, and he didn't retaliate, next plan, she comes over here for a day, without her owner so she's out of her comfort zone, fingers crossed it works!Ahhh this is wonderful. Lots of positive thoughts being sent your way. Hope it works out.
I’d agree here. I’ve been pulled over by our two when we’ve encountered a bitch in heat. Please be mindful of walking your dog anywhere popular even in quiet times. Short lead only and to be honest, you may want to keep her at home at the peak. Easier to rest a dog than deal with males catching the scent.Retractable leads are a recipe for injury.
Typically when in season youd walk her very early am or very late at night where there is no traffic at all. I personally would not want my dog on a long lead either at that point. Id want them on a v short lead.
Male dogs will go absolutely wild for a bitch in heat. They would travel long distances at great speed at even the faintest scent.
Its a pretty crappy time for female dog owners but the risk of being caught is so real that Id be so wary of walks and other dogs.
Edit - this sounds so aggressive, I dont mean it to but my dog caught a scent of a female dog in heat whilst in the garden and was feral for about a week. Ive never seen anything like it. So I reckon he'd pull me off my feet to get to a bitch in season if out and about. He is generally v well behaved and obedient
Thank you, have read a few similar views tbh.I wouldnt advise a beagle for a novice dog owner. Notoriously stubborn and scent dogs.
Both ours did the same whilst teething. Wiping the face with a cold compress might helpHeyyy.
Just a teething question!
Puppy is now coming up to 6 months.(next weekend)
how ever today she seems to have lost a baby canine tooth! Believe this is the last to come out she does have another one on the other side. But she had been rubbing that side (and stratching with her paw(front and back) and licking her lips which she's done when other teeth have fallen out. Adult canine is in so think is pushed this baby one out.
I did think that she might of gotten bit by a spider as we were trying to get her to do a last wee and she went under the bushesI did see a spider on the floor when she was starting to rub her face so that's why I thought she'd got bitten. Can't see any red or sore eyes/ears/mouth for that.
So only thing we can think off is the tooth has come out and it's irritating heranyone elses puppy was similar? Or do I just worry for no reason picture of the little madam
She's not done it today so think it's just her last teeth! Thank you! It's been so long since we've had a puppy and I don't ever remember our older dogs rubbing their faces or finding as many teeth as we have!! (mind you they where boxers so they don't have much of a face to rubBoth ours did the same whilst teething. Wiping the face with a cold compress might helpbut pup might just go for it! If it does start coming up red just pop to the vets.
Julius K9 make some amazing indestructible leads. Have survived both of our lead biters!2. I seem to be going through numerous retractable leads, I've bought Tug a couple of times and they've literally lasted a couple of weeks (she tends to quiet if we're at the pub/restaurant and we don't realise she's actually chewing through). Tugg is super well rated on Amazon but doesn't seem to be doing the trick. We also got her some thick non retractable leads and she's pretty much chewed through them - any advice on decent leads? I really don't want to go through the chain route.
Thanks
I’ve had a look on Amazon and their website and I can’t seem to find which ones are the strongest. Can you remember which ones you bought?Julius K9 make some amazing indestructible leads. Have survived both of our lead biters!
