How to get more fluid into a dog with urine infection
My dog went to the vet yesterday with a urine infection. Tablets have been prescribed which I have got down him in some soft cheese. On questioning the vet he's suggested feeding him pasta, so I've bought the tiny little grains and mixed with a little bit of chicken. I also asked the vet for a syringe so I can feed him…

Haven / Staffordshire Bull Terrier
I am planning on going to a Haven with my staff, but I am worried that she will not be allowed in. I've seen the breeds they ban when I try and book, but am worried that they might assume she is a banned breed. I have her papers from when she was born, but not sure if this proves anything.

Kitten peeing on MY bed help :(
We took in a kitten at 5 weeks old after she was abandoned by her mum. We had to stimulate her to go toilet for the first few days and would put her in her litter tray as soon as she started to do something. She was doing well until I put some litter powder in her tray to stop it from smelling. Then she started peeing on…

So I scrubbed the tray with…

Hair cat poop
Next doors cat has taken to having a hair poop on my driveway at the rear of my car, he does his normal poop in my garden when he gets the chance of a bare bit of soil but for some reason the ones he does on the drive are all hair with virtually no poop material in them. Should I let my neighbours know about these poops or…

Shared Garden complaint
Hi, sorry to bore you all with this but it's nice to get an external point of view that is not a close family connection. I own the Freehold/leasehold of an upstairs flat and we have a communal garden between the 4 flats and have a 12 year old dog. I've previously had a "discussion" with my neighbour about the dog going in…

It's within a large black spot of hair and I've noticed that his skin in the flaky area is white (with black hair growing through), whereas the skin underneath the rest of the black spot has the darker pigmentation. If I touch the flaky…

How to stop my dog eating grass
Thanks for reading. I seem to be having a problem with my dog wanting to eat grass every time we walk. I was once told years ago by my mother in law that it was a sign the dog wants to be sick but this isnt the case with ours. We walk daily on the local field and he used to love to chase the ball over and over till I was…

Dog training - Good citizen
I posted here a couple of weeks ago about introducing a dog to a cat and received some very useful and reassuring advice. Happily, they can now be in the same room, with the cat only occasionally launching aerial assaults on the dog and the dog either baffled or cowed by the cat - so thanks! The dog went to a training…
