Hi Mand, I used to work for a Plastic Surgeon and his wise words of advice to promote hair growth was always to massage the area lightly for several minutes daily with a light oil such as baby oil or aloe vera. We have worked on the real baldies and this seems to help....... Also ensure her water intake is good as sometimes it can be due to dehydration - especially this time of year with the heating on she will need more.

Can anyone give me some advice on Bald Thigh Syndrome. Emily has always had a threadbare bum, which did seem to get a bit better a few weeks after we got her home, but in the last month, this has got worse and has now spread around to the sides of her thighs. She's always had a bald tummy too. She's being fed on John Burns complete food, the same as Gent, who I'm pleased to say has a lovely full backside, so I don't think it's anything food related. I have read up on BTS and it really wouldn't worry me, except that she seems to be losing more just recently. Don't think it's thyroid related, lethargy is one thing we could never accuse our little girl of and she's as much fun now as the day she came home! Just wondered if anyone could offer any advice?

Ruth and Rob, I think it will be a good job you have Shrew, Basil, Foxy, Wispa, Maggie and Joe with you; who needs a hot water bottle when you can cuddle a greyhound! Hope all goes well and Santa visits you! Love Kate and Twiggy xx

Jack's here at last. Been in the house 2 hours and forgot how hectic a new grey is!!Climbing on tables, work tops and window ledges is a passion at the moment; so too is mom's cappucino...... far cheekier that his picture portrays. Very lovely boy though. Sully is sulking about his new 'brother', Tilly thinks her new brother fab, and the parrot - well she's gone into hiding. Here's to a fun filled Christmas - so hard typing with a new grey on your lap!!!! x
