Dog Pics

That is brilliant.

 

It's only his third time off the lead as well. The park by my mas has a sealed off section so we're blooding him there before we let him loose in the vast expansive park by outs

 

nice training Paulie.

 

once you have them coming for food, the rest is plain sailing. You can simply whistle and give him a treat, thats another handy one. Especially when you're out and you want to keep screaming his name in the park.

 

i have my 2 and half year old beagle coming back to me like a boomerang with a quick whistle. She's just getting used to to walking around the streets now off the lead. Im still bricking it she'll run out onto the road, but i generally do it very early in the morning, or pick a housing estate with little traffic, eventully she'll get it.

 

their great craic though arent they.

 

my other little dog Jack (westie) rolled in shite on his walk earlier. I was proper annoyed with the little idiot, but after a wash and a quick blow dry (for him, not me), we're friends again, and he's asleep beside me on the couch.

 

i can honestly say id never be without dogs now. their just great :yes:

 

Deffo agree. Stan is both mine and my bird's first dog and even though we've only had him for just under 2 months it's hard to imagine life without him lying upside down on the floor just in front of the couch so we can't recline...little fucker!

 

Got this little guy yesterday, say hello to Hugo:

 

 

Never had to clean up so much shit in one day, totally worth it though!

 

Cute as tits. Keep the pictures coming

This made me cry

Jesus thats heart breaking.

 

Been seriously thinking about getting a dog for at least two years, took the plunge late last year, best thing i ever did, love him to bits.

 

Had him a few days at this point, last December.

 

 

Think this was the day we beat the mancs in the fa cup, putting him in a jersey became a ritual for a while, until we were beaten.

 

 

Fairly recent, two weeks ago maybe.

This made me cry

 

Dunno why I watched that as I knew it'd only upset me. Cried like a little bitch!

 

My staffy is on her lazzies. Got arthritis in her back legs, so much so that her walks have been cut to once around the block if the weather isn't too cold. She's on metacam and a paracetamol every day, which is a last resort as she's too old for most other treatments. Dreading this winter, really, as I reckon it'll be her last.

 

It'll fucking kill me when she's gone.

[Paulie Dangerously]

Bet you're licking your lips, Woo

That's shit. How old is she?

[Woo]

That's shit. How old is she?

 

She's 13, mate. Poor girl got passed around the family when she was younger as she was my cousin's dog, who ended up moving out, then my auntie had her until she died, then my sister had her but she moved to London, and we've had her for seven years. Been down in London for ten days, and can't wait to get back and see her later:

A mate of mine has had a few arthritic dogs, she's almost a one-woman rescue centre for old iffy dogs, and she swears by Glucosamine supplements to help for this. Look into it, might be worth a go.

[Woo]

Cheers, Meat. I've heard other people mention them; I'll pick some up on the way home.

 

Almost makes up for you hating Pandas!

She's beautiful, spoilt rotten too by the looks of it. Hope those supplements can slow down the ageing process.

 

Our terrier is on sedatives at night time now because she's been scratching at doors trying to get upstairs for the last two months. Odd behaviour, because we got her as a rescue at around three and she's only about eight now and she was always pretty quiet at night until recently.

Heh. I pity them rather than hate them, shit bears that they are...

 

I've just emailed her asking for some info about dosage and other stuff as well. Cod liver oil has worked well with some of my older cats too.

 

Check for any potential interaction between metacam/paracetamol and Glucosamine or anything else first. I seem to recall that, in cats at least, metacam can hit their kidneys pretty hard.

The little fucker just won puppy of the week with Pedigree. He just told me fuck lifetime fan's hamper, this is where it's at.

 

[Paulie Dangerously]

Just got home from a nice meal and drinks with Mrs Dangerously-to-be to find Stan has done his first ever poo in his room. This was probably due to him only having a short walk before we went out (as she took him instead of me) and it fucking reeked the house out. Hopefully some kids knocked for trick and treat and opened the letter box and smelt it.

Love how the cat has that 'you ain't all that, bitch' look

[Xherdan]

 

 

Not my dog but boss all the same.

[Charles Penrose]

That is fucking ace.

[Uncle_Meat]

Ok. from what I gather from a hurried reply this morning...

 

Arthritic dogs. Glucosamine, she gives her dobie 2x human dose, also start off with a higher "loading" dose at first to get it into the woofers system., also Chrondroitin too is also good for this.

 

Tumeric is a natural anti inflammatory, also garlic&fenugreek. You can get these as tablets or mix your own. Apparently her dog loves the taste of this anyway so an easy one to give. Finally, oily things rich in Omega 3&6 oils. Fish oils and the like.

 

She's going to email me a shitload of links, recipies and more info this weekend, so I'll post those when I get them.

Essentially, the pooch needs a lovely curry.

[Woo]

Cheers, Meat. So she just gives 'em the standard glucosamine tablets you can get anywhere and doubles the dosage?

[Charles Penrose]

Woo, there are countless places selling them in dog appropriate size tablets. The internet is full of tales of people using them with older dogs with arthritis or general joint stiffness. They're held in such high regard that i'll probably start using them with my seven month old Springer as a preventative measure and to take care of his joints as he ages. I'll probably get from the below, but that is to be added to moist food which he doesn't have now.
