My partner's been organising her father's funeral - it's going to be quite different from Nine-Nights/Dead Yard, which obviously isn't possible now. It will be very stark.
He died intestate, so looking for recommendations for a good solicitor if anyone has one. Fairly straight forward, I would have thought - bank account, savings, a couple of investments and some shares, no property.

On pups eating shit, particularly their own, it can be learned behaviour. The mother often does it when they’re still with her. They usually grow out of it.
On soft shit, a raw/BARF diet will give your dog the hardest, easiest to scoop and non-smelly shit you can hope for. I won’t get into the raw v processed dog food argument, but raw will solve runny shit in a healthy dog.

Thanks for all the supportive comments. He wasn't in any pain and his passing was made as good as it possibly could have been by incredibly caring and patient hospital staff, despite all the pressure they're under. They let his daughter and two sons sit with him and play music to him (Beres Hammond, Luciano and Dennis Brown in the early hours in King's ICU) for as long as they wanted before turning the equipment off. Then they let them wash and change him, before removing all the tubes. In the middle of a crisis, this level of humanity is so, so important and I know how much difference it has made to my partner today in terms of the memories she will have of her father.

As some of you know, my partner's father was admitted to King's on Christmas Day and placed on a ventilator a few days later. He passed away this morning. Fortunately she and her brothers were able to spend the night with him. He was only in his mid 70s and otherwise in good health. So desperately sad.
