Re: What are you and your dogs up to today? Part 2

Sweetie and I just got back from doing my parents' tax returns. Sweetie *had to* sit in my lap and help. Of course, given her diligent supervision of all tasks, this involved her frequently putting her paws up on the desk, or the keyboard :roll: , and trying to shove her nose into the computer scree...

Re: Ticks and treatment

Thanks MBF. We're the other side of Bris. I'll look into Advantix. I liked Advocate because it covers so much, but I'm annoyed at myself for not realising it doesn't cover ticks. We'll definitely be keeping a close eye on her.

Re: What are you and your dogs up to today? Part 2

Sweetie is SUCH a character, I feel like I know her :lol: I know. I could say the same about Ted, Ari, Ben & Co, of course Jasper and several others! I must be portraying her just right. Sorry to hear that little Ella is having a hard time of it. Poor girl. Sweetie sends Pug Hugs (which have ma...

Re: Ticks and treatment

I just found a tick on Sweetie for the first time, and pulled it off before I realised what it was - she's never had one before. There was a little bit of blood, but the tick is very small - no more than 2mm - so I assume it hadn't been attached long. Of course, being the first time I've found one o...

Re: What are you and your dogs up to today? Part 2

He IS lovely! He says he'd wanted a pug for about 15 years before he was finally in a position to get one (once we bought our house) and he's so in love with her. I, on the other hand, wanted a dog to take running. But my year out due to a knee injury has proven him right. I fell in love with her wi...

Re: What are you and your dogs up to today? Part 2

SweetiePug is in the garage helping OH put a pushbike together. She's terribly helpful and I'm sure he couldn't manage without her supervision. In fact, she's alternating between pushing her little snub nose into his business, and working on a neckbone she's brought along. :lol:

Re: Help! Leash walking a hound

This is more of another question than anything (sorry!), but I wonder if, once she's gotten the lie of the land, whether she'll walk the known parts of your track with fewer sniff-stops? My dog is a completely different breed so this may not apply to a beagle, but Sweetie stops for sniffs much more ...
