A carrot every morning has helped our Vinnie’s. Little guy loves a carrot.

Not completely coffee-related but I’m hoping there’s some crossover knowledge in here..! My partner doesn’t drink coffee spits Does anyone have any recommendations for milk frother things for making hot chocolate?

We’ve got our second session with a dog behaviourist next month. Referred by the vet and covered by Petplan (who are awesome IMO). Obvz got plenty to work on still but reactivity out and about has definitely improved. As others have said, it’s more about helping you read your dog and when to reinforce/reward the good/calm behaviours. Timing is rather important too. Hard to get across in books.

It depends on the size of the food. And if it’s in something (e.g. toy). Small treats he’ll just eat. Larger things like edible chews he’ll either eat (annoyingly quickly the savage!) if he’s hungry or just leave there. We’ve learnt to take these away if he’s not immediately interested because it potentially turns into guarding later on. Treats in toys though is a bit different. We want to give him some mental stimulation (so kibble in wobble dispenser thing) but he has ended up guarding that FFS. I’m now wondering whether to double up on these toys to make them less special.
Back to last night’s/today’s episode… He came out around 1ish. Can only assume because he was thirsty AF and the smell of the ox chew around the corner was too much to resist.

Anyone on here have any success with resource guarding? The little lad gets himself in such a stupid state sometimes. We popped into town for a couple of hours and left him in his crate with an antler and a Kong (the Stuff a Ball type with kibble slotted in). When we got back he was guarding the Kong and wouldn't leave his crate... Come bed time we had to close his crate and go upstairs. Today is going to be interesting.

This. We appreciate your efforts.

Morrisons’ “The Best” (the 6 pack with star on top variety). Pastry too floury and loose. Filling very enjoyable though.

Thanks +wools
I am lucky, he's super chill and not an issue. He will amuse himself mostly or sleep. Just looking for fun stuff for him.
I am very jealous.
Beautiful people of the forum. Does anyone have any sage advice/pointers when looking at used Mini Countrymen. We're looking at 2013ish, basic bitch One variety. I was really hoping we'd get a Yeti but it seems she is averse to boxes on wheels. No taste.
