Perdi (Nicky)
I’m Homed
Quick update on Perdi : Other than being a little knobbly in the right shoulder and occasionally walking with a bit of goose-step, Perdi is practically back to normal! We walk together every day and she can do up to 45 mins with no ill effects; the vet is astounded by her and is encouring us to walk her further each week to build her muscles ready for her knee op (if it's still needed). She's so happy and bouncy and I'm sure it's her happy disposition that pulled her through xxx

Seamus has just been returned by his owner who is distraught as she has health problems and he has started getting separation anxiety as she has to go to the hospital frequently.

Tink

Hi Julie, she is trying to get Sid to play, but not as much as i thought she would, she is more interested in me at the moment. She is nibbling at his neck though, and Sid seemed to enjoy it at first, but i told her 'No' as i thought she was trying to bite him. She has done it a few times since and this morning Sid barked at her and she stopped. Is this normal as i'm not sure if its aggression or affection? We are muzzling them both at night and during the day when we are out, and for now we have put the toys away and just get them out when we play with them. With regards to toileting still no change, but i'm sure we'll get there! It's all fun and games in our house at the moment...lol :)xx

Hi Sue .. all crossed this cunning plan works 🙂 and once she understands what's wanted they usually try to please - as they've been able to toilet when they need to as they've lived in kennels it can take a few days for them to 'get it' 🙂 Is she trying to get Sid to play? She's only a baby but you need to be careful he doesn't get very fed up and it all ends in tears .. good alternatives to use up her energy are Kongs (for both her and Sid and only when you are there to supervise) plus I'd be watching them carefully and telling her leave him before I think he's had enough. See you soon at class 🙂 J xx

Hi Sue, When we had Rosie she 'bit' Jet's neck quite a lot, and still does to a lesser extent when they are playing. In our case it wasn't aggression; but they are all different & you're right to watch carefully until Tink has settled down. I use kitchen towel to soak up any wee I can, then make a mixture of water,a bit of pet-friendly disinfectant, a drop of washing up liquid and a bit of white vinegar and wipe the area over with that. I read that white vinegar will take away the smell & discourages re-offending in the same spot & it's always worked for me. Best of luck, Val
