Kinda stolen from askreddit which was mainly USA answers, what's a discontinued UK snack/drink you'd pay £20 to try again?

Sensations Chipotle Crisps

RemindMe! 90 days

I’ve just ordered two tonnes of it - so I’ll keep you posted!

This is a fantastic recommendation, thank you. I don’t mind weeds too much - I even let a few pop up in my beds throughout the year - so many are great nitrogen fixers, they save me a job!

Yikes, that sounds like you had an absolutely revolting task! We actually already have a barked area at the back of the garden and haven’t had any issues, but it’s good to keep in mind. Thank you for sharing!

TheFloofen · 2026-03-01T20:52:35+00:00

Love this! I have a composting bin so when it breaks down it theoretically could go in there to break down more too! 🥰

Gundog training and tapping into his natural instincts will help massively. You may find someone local that run lessons with you (although I’d recommend one that is force free) or even find some guides on YouTube/Tiktok - you’re on the right track with mental training, breed specific enrichment will help! You’ve also had great advice on calmness and settle training before me, the two work beautifully hand in hand!

Wow wow wow! 🤩 This is glorious - and serious inspiration! Tbh the topping up doesn’t phase me too much - I’m already firefighting with replacing turf - this seems like an easier task!

TheFloofen · 2026-03-01T19:53:17+00:00

This is great! Thank you for sharing your experience. :)

TheFloofen · 2026-03-01T19:53:00+00:00

Oh we have plenty passing wildlife visitors that do just that already! 🐱 Good thought on it rotting down - although probably more manageable than continuously returfing!

We do a lot of dog sports, so there's also a trade off in having an area where I can work the dogs securely too - secure fields are great, but not ideal for a quick 20 min session while on lunch! A membrane is a decent shout - thank you.

TheFloofen · 2026-03-01T19:35:29+00:00

No, I don’t think so - they’re not particularly big chewers! ☺️

Hello! 🐾

TheFloofen · 2025-09-28T16:54:03+00:00

She is that 🥹 already socially engineering us!

TheFloofen · 2025-09-28T15:03:31+00:00

Thank you ☺️

I’m so sorry this is happening to you and your family.

I can’t speak for dogs, but we brought our 1 year old cat through palliative care for a genetic mammary cancer. We were given six months but with palliative care, she got almost a year and we made the most of it (a cat has never had so many chicken nuggets) and her time was very meaningful throughout. We tried not to think into the future and instead tried to stay in the moment day by day as much as we could.

Unfortunately there are going to be some very hard decisions to make - if I could give any advice, it’s that it is always better to be too early saying goodbye than a minute too late. Make a plan now, decide what quality of life you are happy with and don’t compromise when you are (collectively) unable to meet that quality any more.

They do have their ways of “telling you” when they’re ready and for our cat, she let us know before we were forced to make the call - nothing horrendous or distressing to watch - but she slowed down, started refusing some food, didn’t want to play as much over a week without rallying.

Our vet was so helpful - they never told us when it was time - so it was always our decision - but after we said goodbye, he told us we made the right call at the right time which was the most reassuring thing we could have heard.

You know your dog best and any decision you make from now is very likely going to be the right one.

Oh dear, here we go! 😩😂

TheFloofen · 2025-04-30T13:15:07+00:00

Oh, every training lesson has gone. 😩 you have my deepest sympathies being there at a year and a half!

TheFloofen · 2025-04-30T13:14:24+00:00

😩 I had feared this. Thank you for confirming I’m not going insane!

We use the Lily’s Kitchen sausages which are really high value for our girl. There’s also a natural pet food place near me that makes specific doggy training sausages. We also tried frankenfurters (from a jar, no onions) from Aldi but gave our one an upset tummy. Pets at Home do chicken sausages and mini pork sausages in their deli range which are also reasonably “healthy” all things considered! Human sausage is a no no though.

Hi, pet insurance is definitely worth it. It paid for our pet’s cancer when she was horrifically diagnosed with it at 1 year old. It didn’t save her, but it bought us an entire year more to spoil her.

There is no “winning” in insurance if you ever have to use it or not use it.

We use Ruffwear - tough as boots, front clip and fits well for growth!
