adamboro

i have a nine month old saluki/whippet/grey. tonight i went out to give both of my dogs a walk before bed and noticed he had a limp on his front left paw. when i put him in his pen a few hours before he was fine. anyway, i had a good look at his paw and full leg, when, i noticed at the top of his leg, on the inner side, he has a red coloured mole. it dosnt look sore and dosnt bother him when i touch it but i just thourght i'd see if anyone had any ideas or expierced this before before he goes to the vets. alb adamboro

hi, cheers for the advice lads, had himout today with my pup and another two salukis. had him in a closed of field so he couldnt run too far but he never even went near the sides. i was letting him run then calling him back over and over again. each time he rand owards me a few times but then went round me. after a few though he came to my hand, then i repeted it all but in a new spot in the field, think this will do the trick if repeted every day? cheers.

A few of the more experienced boys on here will give you better advice than me, but I have seen good results achieved using a very long lead or rope (I think there is another thread on this). With my lurcher bitch, I started with treat training and praise but, once she got the idea and decided no to come back, I'd consistantly scruff her and carry her back to where I called her from. I think it took about two weeks before she realised it was easier to come back. The problem with this is that you need a small enclosed area where the dog can't get away or do any damage before you catch up wi

sounds good get rid of the thing.im off to the vets friday so see what he can do. yeah, think it was £4.95, the nurse did it, best way. cheers.
