    agree with sandymere bitch had something very similar recently, 4 staples later and right as rain, have to watch out for the feeling of bubblewrap as mentioned as a drip may be needed, I was lucky that my bitch's cleared. GOOD LUCK mate

    DO NOT WORRY, you have the basics in there, all what you need now is your missus or your daughter to walk the dog, working on the basics which are there so no faults should arise, Just keep ground rules, no playing fetch, always keep the dog in control. making sure he obeys the recall, and general lead work, no faults will arise and when your back you will be able to really crack on with training then, he will be at the perfect age, NO need to send him away or take any drastic action

    I enjoy it, especially when its going right... good luck with the new pup and let us know how it goes The only thing i don't like is the house breaking
  12. rickyspringer
    thanks mate, will let him know

    if possible bricks and mortar, far better job mate, just have a timber kennel as mentioned with adequate insulation, if your going for it properly don't forget the drains.

    tell me about it mate, no point in the breeding but she's not my dog and he has waited 4 or 5 years and now he wants a pup. They will all end up with his mates, so homes are sorted but the thing is will they be good homes. Just need a little info on the C-Section as this will put him off, if its a high probabilty. Thanks pal

    Hi all, Asking this question as brother in law's bitch has started a season, he finally wants a pup out of her and has homes lined up for the pups to mates. Will give you some info on the whole situation now, the bitch is a half cross pitt to a american bull. Very pitt looking just a little taller,he doesn't want to line her with a pitt as he doesn't want potential dogs he has bred being put to sleep, if the old bill or any other authority realise they are a banned breed. Now he has a Am-bull lined up to line her, I have done a little research and found out there is the chance of c

    he'a cracker mate, how is he proressing, have you had him out on a proper days shooting yet, or anything of sorts. You sound over the moon with him and your comment about him making you a laugh eveyday, that very cocker like My springers make me pull my hair out each day, well the eldest one does, haha.
  17. rickyspringer

    sandymere thats the response I was after its so simple its unreal, I will simply include more fat into his diet, I do include veg fat as its gives the dogs a nice coat, Thanks mate.
  21. rickyspringer
    thanks for the responses, I think the reasons for him being skinny is the phase he is at, very much like a sausage roll on 4 matchsticks, secondly I think that it may be due to the winter lots of dogs lose that bit of weight in the winter, thirdly he is extremely active. He is a great eater, I have up'd his intake of 4 meals a day now, I regularly include bits & bobs in his diets, tripe, eggs any left overs. Skycat his stools are extremly firm, on the raw and now, I must admit that he did have loose ones when he was younger but that was due to far too much tripe,wasn't includi

    Right all I have a youngster who is at the leggy stage, he's about 8 months old now, he's a Spaniel, but his stature is very poor- looks whippet like, rangy legs and very slim backend, need to sort this out as had a few comments that he looks too much underweight, especially stood next to my older more solid built bitch. He was wormed yesterday so see how that goes, started to feed little and often, with a better high protein feed! Now I want more advice on bulking him up, what foods are good - any methods which help with dogs holding there weight. And Raw bones ruled out, he

    asking silly money for them mate, £250 i would never pay that for an accident! they are on pigeonwatch, but have also seen the add of pets4homes. Taker they look a handy pair,what work do you do with them general bushing & mooching, like the look of the bitch, beddy/russel, these should make handy little dogs, Look forward to seeing images of the pups,
  24. rickyspringer
    hope he is okay mate, let us know how he goes

    shelley I have heard alot about the ESS liking the red un's a lad near me has a dog which is dynamite on them, she's a credit to you, is she blind due to an accident or born blind? Taker sounds a very good mix, get the images up of sire & dam! Just seen a add on another forum for some steady bushers, cocker X Border Terrier, should be handy and rather biddable. GOOD THREAD BY THE WAY
