Hi,
My experience is I prefer take a walk with each dog instead of having
trobles with 2 or 3 walked in the same time.
It is also always necessary for dogs to go for a walk on their own - not
always with company of other dogs. They behave differently and need time for
themselves.

About your words: wear that silly funnel on her head.

Excellent post!
Are we going to the vet more often nowadays? In our country we do, earlier
(15- 25 years ago?) it was just to put the dogs down if they was very sick.
If we go to the vet more often now a lot of new diseases are seen and
discovered in the breed. Perhaps the illnesses had

I use the newspapermethod. If the pup can have his/her own toilet indoors,

Vincent is a panter, he has panted rather much since he was a little pup.
He panted much more when he was under medication for Syst. Histio.

You have to see a veterinarian with knowledge and experience, let diagnostic

About check´s as payment. In Sweden nobody use check´s any more - we use

My monthly salary goes directly to the card.
