I don't have a Shih Tzu, but from personal preference, I like Rosie's look better and it will be a lot easier to keep tidy. You may find that as she...
Hi and welcome
Maybe 'intimidating' would have been a better choice of words that bullying, but as it's part of the bullying definition, maybe not. I totally...
She's beautiful. I do think fleas may be the culprit and usually if a flea treatment is going to work you quickly see a lessening in the scratching...
Which flea treatment did you use? Shop bought and prescription Frontline don't work for my girl, but Stronghold does. You will probably need to get...
Get in touch with Amit. I know you don't want to put him out but he'll be more upset if you don't and you continue to go downhill. Please Juli, do...
I don't know how it works over there, Juli, but can you not ring the hospital and tell them how you've been since coming home and that you are not...

Not really, Myra. An excited dog can soon become frustrated when being held by the collar which can quickly turn to aggression in a bid to get away...
Or, in other words, ignore when they are being excitable. Nothing wrong with that. I don't see the relevance of holding the collar, but hey, ho, each...
Vets! It could be minor or it could be more serious. Only a vet can tell you which after a full examination. Keep us up-dated please
Hope all is going well with you. Keep us up-dated. When you go missing we all worry about you xxx
Oh Carole, I do hope he recovers fully and quickly. Always a worry. Beautiful day here too. Was freezing this morning, but by about 11.30 am it had...
I wouldn't call him fat either. He's a good looking lad
I think it's probably more to do with socialisation. From birth he was socialised with his own breed (mum and siblings) so they are not a worry for...
