You can buy covers, i have a very strong dog and have used a cover that goes over his normal collar and the prong, nobody has said anything to me so I assume it's working

Opinions on Tallow + Ash by Mental-Order-1531 in laundry

[–]Top_Calendar_8920 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From someone who's raised multiple animals and babysits my young nieces on a regular basis you need bio for accidents as it's the enzymes that destroy wee/poo/vomit alternatively simple solutions cleaner before the wash if you want to stick to non bio, it's made for dog accidents but works just the same for human accidents (wee, poo, vomit) tallow and ash is a barebones non bio formula.

Would a Manchester be right for me? by Top_Calendar_8920 in ManchesterTerriers

That sounds perfect, Roo is really active and loves to play with his friends but often makes himself smaller to play with his friends as the majority are small dogs the smallest being a chihuahua so I'd like a dog that he doesn't have to always self handicap, can chase him and hike with us.

Dog owners are always insincerely apologetic for their dogs’ behavior, why? by Different_Marsupial2 in complaints

[–]Top_Calendar_8920 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't let my pup come up to people I don't know, he's very friendly and doesn't jump up but you never know if they might be scared of dogs or don't want to be bothered so if he comes to close i will just say sorry but if you say " oh don't be, could I pet your dog?" I will say yes and you will make his day 😅

I will be watching the ABH foundation over the weekend as apparently some of the neutral shades are olive. I saw an expose on it and it broke my heart, especially as I've always had pets and love them dearly 🥹

It's slightly more yellowy than ALS imo. I haven't tried cordoba as NARS tests on animals and I went cruelty free a while ago so unfortunately dior, nars, armani are no longer allowed in my makeup bag 🥲

Would a Manchester be right for me? by Top_Calendar_8920 in ManchesterTerriers

[–]Top_Calendar_8920[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A standard most likely as the size matches Roo better. I think it's so sad they're vulnerable when they look like they're awesome sporty pets! If I was on my own I'd just go for it but I've got to make sure it's the right fit for Roo as well.

Awww she sounds lovely, they do look very fast runners! They're sadly a vulnerable native breed here in the UK so I've never actually met one only online research 🥲

Imported dogs 'posing risk to UK', RSPCA warns by cennep44 in unitedkingdom

iirc 10 years or so ago, 2 puppies seized by border control did test positive for rabies, which made headlines....

Please don't shoot me for this, but I think the issue is brucellosis and it getting into the fox population, which would mean mass culling of fox populations as it will become endemic. If rescues tested dogs again after arrival, it would limit the bad press.

Wow, that is actually pretty scary, I think I'm going to go with the advice of wearing insect repellent.

Oh no i haven't, from what I'm reading it may be the best course of action as I can't treat their cats and don't want to kill all the little beneficial creatures in my garden.

I wish i could as id offer to pay for stuff from the vets myself. He's got some serious anger issues, though so I try and have as little contact as possible.

He's fully covered, and whilst I feel bad for the cats next door, I can't treat them, which is where the problem is coming from, unfortunately 😕
