Hi Melysa. I know they sell it in Farmfoods.....Aldi....and B & M. Asda also sell it....and Morrisons also do it as well l think, but it's a more expensive in Asda. Each store sells a different brand. Our dogs also love it with creamy mash. X.

Great to hear Ash is continuing to build his weight back up. Hope all continues to go well. We weren't able to make it with Kylie yesterday as it's been a busy couple of days. All the best to you all x

Hi Muddy Paws. What brand of stewing steak is it? We couldn't find anything without onions! He is currently eating chicken breasts, sausages, tripe & Ceaser puppy food. He hates all carbs & veg! Thanks for a great day at the Xmas at Daybreaks event, we had a lovely time - can't believe all the jacket potatoes had gone by the time I went up for one! The hot chocolate was lovely though, especially in my Foxy Uppy mug! Charlie Mouse had a great time & went mad when he saw his Auntie Lyn! Any kind of big social thing - he loves it! It was lovely to see all the familiar faces! We had to leave earlier than expected though as after a while of meeting & greeting it became a bit much for Ash & he had to go & lie down in the treatment room, so we thought it best to get him home. HOWEVER!!!! The little man went for his check up today & he has put on another 3 pounds!! Yay! The vet says he will be up for his op to have his teeth out in the new year for definite! This is a bit for Pam - Sam says - 'Yes, he's up for doing Madness next year!' Also, Charlie Mouse & I are going to the Xmas lights switch on in Bournville tomorrow at 6pm if you are around, Pam. Also just wanted to say again what a great night I had at Step into Xmas! Great show, great buffet & Deb & I got to dance to a bit of rock! x

After reading about Ash and his fussy eating habits, it reminded me of our old lurcher Lizzie. She was always a very fussy eater, and when she became old and unwell, we really struggled to get her to eat anything at all, but one thing that she did enjoy was tinned stewing steak in gravy. Our bunch still have it sometimes on special occasions, and they absolutely love it. l can't remember how much we pay for it (know it's not exactly cheap) but l think we pay about £1.40 for a 400 g tin. Just heat it gently in a saucepan for about 15 mins, and wait for it to cool, until it's lukewarm, mmmm, doggie heaven !!!!! You can bulk it up by mixing in dried kibble, or whatever you like. We bulk it up with Burns soaked in a little water, or pasta, or rice. lt's great for adding some weight onto skinny bones !!! If your dog doesn't leave you a sparkly clean bowl, then they really are incredibly picky eaters indeed !!! Just be careful that you don't buy anything containing onions, like tinned minced beef in onions. Also adding steamed veg is a big favourite with our gang. X.

Tommo
Over the Rainbow Bridge
I had a mosey at Tommo's racing career and after 125 races, some open class and all but a few at Perry Barr, this veteran has definitely earned a turkey leg and a couple of pigs-in blankets in his own forever home this Christmas! He's so handsome with a lovely long neck and pointy nose I only wish it could be mine... Xx

Oh wow another stunning photo of handsome half an ear Paddy! It is my opinion that every home should have a gorgeous Grey, especially around Christmas time... You'll never have a better offer to clean up all that left over turkey and Paddy could definitely fit that bill! (Keeping our fingers & paws crossed that there's a turkey drumstick just around the corner for you Pad) Xx

Tiny by name but not tiny in personality! Met this little poppet yesterday at the Christmas party and had lots of lovely cuddles and kisses with her. She is so very sweet and a was a very happy little girl when I sat with her in the kennel for a while. She's not going to be around for long I'm sure. Good luck Tiny girl. xxxx

Met this little beauty yesterday at the Christmas party. Wow she is lovely and I was quite smitten with her. Our home and lives are full already with Lola & Lena and we are strictly a 2 dog family, but this little girl would definitely be on my list if I were looking. She's petite and gorgeous and I don't expect she will be around for long. Good luck little Bubbs.... I will be watching your progress and cheering loudly when you are chosen. xxxx
