    Wolves have been doing ok on this diet for a little while now Although there are several physical changes to the anatomy between dogs and wolves the digestive system is the same.

    does the bitch have to be total clear of blood before she will allow a dog to line her? In my experience no, I have a bitch who will stand on day 24-26 still showing some colour till day 30 or so. Setter

The animals were found by EEAC Rescue Officer Debbie Newson on 16th February of this year after she took in an emaciated and matted solid black bitch who, Debbie later found out, was not a stray but in fact belonged to the person who had handed her in. Upon discovering this Debbie made some enquiries and learned that this particular owner had
