BTW have you got covers for the crate?
12-30-2015, 02:22 PM
I was actually thinking about you posting that last night, when should I put them over it?
12-30-2015, 03:31 PM
When you want them to sleep if I remember rightly.

Walt, happy to sell you the Ozturk pin badge I got in secret Santa

We have these covers over the top and two or three sides at all times, it makes it his own wee den, and then one that goes over the other side at night so it's totally covered, and means no distractions. Also looks better in the corner as there isn't just this big cage there with all the implications of that.

Poor thing just looking at you with those eyes through the bars.

When we had our dogs back at my folks they did the crate training and they had the covers all round it as well. Seemed to calm them down quite a lot compared to when the covers weren't on.

Will definitely give that a go. Roger - a cage with a cover is still a cage m8

Dog had her second jag on Wednesday, the vet advised 2 weeks before she can go out on a walk. What are the thoughts on that? I know folk who've taken theirs out a day after.
Would a wee ten minute walk in a quiet area this weekend be out of the question?

Parvo is apparently horrendous so I would just suck it up and not take her out, would be awful if she caught something. Have you got a garden you can go to? I was taking him out to the courtyard at the back of the flat, and to family gardens to let him run about.
Other thing was to go to a puppy class so he could run about and meet other dogs. You carrying her about a bit yet? Definitely helped with Hovis once he was walking, though it took a week or so for him to relax and not want to stop every 10 centimetres. Last sunday we had him for a walk with mates who have a massive greyhound, 42kg, for a run off the lead. He ended up getting ragdolled by the other dog but was alright after it. Will do it again but just take it easy. The greyhound was rapid, but once hovis reaches a year or so he will be outrunning it, then he can get revenge.

oh and just realised, our vet said one week after the second jag. It was jag, then two weeks, second jag, then one week.

Had the pug again today and definitely wanting to get my own once I buy a new flat and get sorted.

Had my mums Border collie out in the snow earlier for a walk, she was jumping about like a mental case trying to catch snowflakes.
When I get my own dog I'll be getting a collie, they're brilliant.

I was out with my stepsister's dug yesterday. 3/4 Labrador and 1/4 Spaniel. He's fucking mental. I got a great bit of exercise with him. Not so sure he did though.
He's a wee cracker though. Bit daft but really friendly. I really want a dug but Mrs Resnick says no as we live in a flat.

I fancy a golden retriever now.
I'm basically just puppy daft, wish i had worked with animals now ![]()

I feel a bit sorry for dugs like Bulldogs and Pugs TBH.
Riddled with health defects and for Bulldogs especially it must be a shitter of a life. I accept that the majority of pedigree dogs come with the risk of health defects but some breeds are definitely worse than others. Don't think I could own a dog that sounded like it had pleurisy every day because it's been bred to look a certain way by certain fuckwits of society. Just my opinion mind.
