    Hi everyone, We are very lucky to have just got a gorgeous 8-week whippet puppy. She's settling in wonderfully, already telling us when she wants to go out, sleeping through etc. However I wondered what everyone's routines were with feeding etc.?

    Jolly Ball Romp ‘n Roll

    Hello! My 3 year old, female, lab mix, Taco, loves the Jolly Ball Romp ‘n Roll. It basically a soft plastic ball with a rope through the middle. It is her toy of choice and we can play with it outside for longer than any other toy. The problem is that Taco “goes through” them pretty quickly...

    First day with 8 week old puppy and he isn’t really eating or drinking. Should I worry or wait?

    We brought our little rescued Bowzer (basset hound/schnauzer) home late last night after he had a few days of travel from a foster home a thousand miles away. He’s been amazing so far, but hasn’t eaten at all and has had only a few sips of water despite it being freely available. I’m sure he’s...

    Can H-harnesses be fixed?

    So, I recently got a Zee dog H-harness for my dog. We got home one day and she instantly zoomed under my bed, and I couldn’t get her harness off.
