Hollywood Smile for Billy
(Preview)
Billy got a full dental at the vet today. The vet told me there would probably still be some staining on some teeth, but I was shocked at how white and pearly his teeth now look! And, despite my concerns over one of his back teeth in particular, he didn't need to get any teeth removed! The vet told me his gums...

Malcolm was our first foster dog. He was one of the 17 pups that Dave was looking after around Christmas 2002 (he is the brother of George & Maia) and was originally called Vulcan. He was 16 weeks when we first fostered him. We couldn't really see ourselves calling "VULCAN!!!" in the park so changed his n...

Twiggy (affectionately known as Piglet) was our first GAL dog. She's a lurcher of indeterminate parentage but seems to be a collie trapped in the body of a whippet.... We collected her from GAL at 8 weeks old and she had already spent a week in kennels after being found as a stray. She was just a tiny furry...

How do you walk loads of dogs?
(Preview)
Just curious as to how those of us amongst us with multiple dogs manage walkies? Particularly Dave and Esther, with loads and loads of dogs. Do you take them out in groups? Or do you have a big garden so they can run around a lot, rather than having 'formal' walks on a regular basis? And what of the doo-doo,...
