Hesky

I agree Deb - he loves to cuddle and when people go to look at him maybe they should think about going on his kennel? As he doesn't really com to people in the run.....

Hi Emma. Hope ur ok? I too wud b very interested in first aid for dogs, obviously all breeds in my case. It myt also b useful to learn what to do if ur dog is attacked or in a fight with another dog or even in my case again wen dogs attack or bite u. All things I think r very useful to kno to try n defuse or stop n incident n how to deal with any wounds that may b caused. Especially as there r now so many 'status' dogs out there now. Hopefully c u soon. X

I'm pleased to say Jay was ok with Amber so all looks good for her to come and stay with us. We have a few things to sort with Ruth but if all goes well we will take her for the time being with the possible hope to make it a more permanent arrangement.

He He, I can see Ad having the same issue! Gotya now, I've been looking at coats all over the place and theres so many for variety of things. Heads spinning so any advice is welcome. I saw a lovely pink collar at Daybreaks with flowers on. Ad looked at me as if to say 'No way am I puting that on her!'. Am so nervous about Sunday and Rose meeting Bella. Big Hugs Rosie-Chops, Cuddle to you as always. XX

I'm pleased I asked now - if it leads to a local course so some of us can learn what to do in these siuationsthat's great! Yes, please do use this page of course - I'd like to find out about a first aid course very much, and I do think this website is so brilliant for this kind of thing - oh and I'm intrigued by "vegetarian" pig's ears - we definitely need to try some of those!!!! x

Hi Jess I think we should start a Hesky fan club he is lovely and if only he would push himself forward a bit more when people are choosing a dog he wouldn't be overlooked. He is quite small for a boy and really does like his cuddles.

perhaps one of the work experience youngsters from Solihull College might be able to identify a lecturer. Or it would be great if Andre the greyhound vet could be persuaded or one of his nurses or a nurse from FIVELANDS

I wonder if I should have a look and see if someone can come to us (eg Hobs Moat) and do a first aid course geared towards greys - if we have enough numbers it would make sense. I was tempted to do the intructor training course myself and then offer it as a fundraising event(s) but I think if I try and do any more study I WILL have a nervous breakdown! If Cinders doesn't mind us hijacking Tippie's page, please can anybody who might be interested please let me know here? Or alternatively you can contact me on emma.bryce@rgtperrybarr.co.uk

Glad to hear that Amber seems to be sorted for foster care. She would love it here - with Kev, Sadie and Frankie to bomb around and play with, and Moo for more sedate cuddles. And not forgetting how good she was when she met my cats for cat testing all those months ago. Unfortunately I know I would be a RUBBISH foster mum as I wouldn't give her back, and that might be a problem as my hubby would definitely divorce me! Good luck Amber xxx

So pleased Evi is ok. Twiggy has trouble with pigs ears sometimes too, I like the sound of the vegetarian ones! A first aid course sounds like a great idea. I would be interested too if there was somewhere local to attend. xxx
