Hi Maureen.. sooo glad this worked for you!!! It helped mine loads, they are fine when we are not in, but its different knowing you are in the house and they cant see you. i think it just depends on how people feel about having there hounds upstairs. Good girl Cara xxxxx

Hi Mand I got rid of a corn on Tiggers foot by sandpapering the hard top off then smearing it with Neem Oil (its anti fungal/bacterial : ) ), I put a bandage on her foot as the Oil gets everywhere and it helped keep the oil in place too- I did that everytime we came back from a walk and the corn went in about three weeks never to return 🙂 My Neem Oil came from Neem genie but Ruth may have some ... it's a bit fiddly to do but usually corns are removed by the vet under anasthetic so worth a try first 🙂 Julie x

Emily has started limping on her left leg - poor baby girl - when we're out walking. No problems at home and she's still bombing up and down the stairs! After some help from Mary at Webbs on Saturday (thanks Mary), we've taken a closer look at her and it does look as though she's developing a corn on one of her pads on her left foot (and possibly one developing on her right foot too). Any advice on how to deal with them at home, or are we looking at trip to the vets? Mand x

Ruth, I was touched by our visit to daybreaks today with the passion, love and dedication shown by all who are involved with the trust. You are such a warm person who is focused wholly on the well being of the dogs.Jake is an amazing boy, but you already know this. He is fast asleep, cosy, warm,loved and secure just as at daybreaks.
