Hi, no I just half the tube of meat in the morning and the other half in the evening for each dog, with a cup full of mixer food each feed. Dosen't look alot, but I think the meat is filling?! I think you would have to judge the amount of biscuits for each dog. Billy is huge 38kgs so he has a few more biscuits with his meat, and they still have treats in there kong when I go to work, but as I say they all look fab and healthy. Defo worth a try Mau. xxxx

Bobby has settled in well. He has chosen his spot on the sofa and favourite place in the garden, made friends with the neighbours and many of the "usual suspects" that we meet and run with on the park. He likes to follow Guzzi (my whippet) just about everywhere and was happy to be included in the family New Year meal (possibly something to do with the quantity of meat which got dropped on the floor). The only downside that he's found is the cat, which he politely ignores, and this seems to work well.

Hi Mau, Yes any one can order from them, or you can collect. They are on padgets lane, opposite the Arrow Valley. Its not a very nice place, if you have a tickled stomach! I buy tripe and chicken they come in 1lb tubes. I buy the mixer dry food from them to, its about £10 for 15kg bag. I only use the mixer to bulk out the raw meat. They also deliver for free, if you order over £40 I think. Hope this helps. Its a great way to feed the Greys in a very inexpensive way, and they love it and look fab on it to. xx

I have been to visit Belle and her owners this evening. She is still having separation anxiety and we are helping her owners to tackle this. She is starting to improve but it is such a change from the life she knows and still early days. I really admire their love, dedication and support for Belle and hope she starts to settle very soon.

We've had Logan for 3 weeks now! He seems to be settling in well and making progress everyday. Loves his daily walks in the park. Lots of treats and cuddles, Emily calls Logan her 'best buddy'. Thank you to everyone at the kennels for introducing us to the 5th member of our family, we love him very much.

My poor baby girl went into the vets today to have her corn removed. We had tried filing it down, but in the end, it was found to be larger than we could deal with. She's come home sporting a very bright pink bandage on her foot and leg, which sort of looks like a big pink wellie boot! Gent was very pleased to see her and sniffed her all over when she came home, before licking her ears. Thanks Ruth for your advice on the 'rubber glove' boot. No walks until after the first dressing change on Friday. Mand x

Oh Toby ... what a busy day you have had. You are very brave and sounds like you have tried so very hard. I hope that next time you go, you'll know what happens and it won't be quite so scary. Lola and Lena send their love and best wishes xxx
