In reply to: codydog started the forum topic Long Term Cough in Rescue Dogs in the group Dog Rescue I had one rescue dog – Posie- that would not stop coughing. Coughing can have so many causes and it is next to impossible to […] ViewI was lold that kennel cough vaccine works in about 60% of cases. I think it’s a bit like flu vaccine for humans – ther are SO many strains, constantly mutating, that it would be very difficult (and expensive) to have a vaccine that prevented all cases.
People who are worried about dogs coughing persistently should of course consult their vet.…[Read more]

In reply to: Joan posted an update in the group Tell Us About Your Dogs: Just off to do some serious obedience training – but the dogs may not agree! ViewYes, we go nearly every week and I do a bit with them every day – maybe only 10 minutes but it keeps them up to scratch. That’s the idea anyway!! (we do obediance comps as well as flyball – just for fun)

It’s been mentioned on here that we shouldn’t feed cat food to dogs (it’s too high in fat,etc) – well I wouldn’t anyway, it would be far too expensive!! I know this is a site for DOG people, but did you know that it’s far more harmful to feed dog food to cats? I can’t remember the details but if done regularly it can make them desperately ill.

I gather it’s a long process, Graham, as she has to be imported from Romania. Not sure how to filch a picture from facebook!! Why this particular dog has stirred up so much interest (and emotion) I don’t know – there are loads of dogs, even in this country, that have been in rescue for ages, but just because they perhaps don’t look attractive…[Read more]

I go to obedience training most weeks but hadn’t done much with them over Xmas and New Year. Being Collies (of a sort!!) they need the brain work!

Of course you can come & meet her, Nicky, if I get her! But there’s a long way to go I gather, and Val might not want a foster home for her, she hasn’t said definitely. Fingers crossed!

She’s not a pup, Jane, she must be at least 7. As far as I know she’s being brought over to the UK by a rescue and will eventually be rehomed from there. Poor dog, it will be a traumatic time for her and won’t be easy as she’s presumably never lived in a house and hasn’t been house-trained. At least she’s safe and will be going to a really…[Read more]

I’m terribly tempted! Poor dog, but at least she’s been safe, unlike so many.

I think it is a completely different set of ingredients and balance.
