I can't believe that I'm doing this once more. 5 Vislas in total, mum and four of her pups are looking for permanent homes, or foster carers at least. These 5 have been signed over to a lady who comes to training, after being found locked up in appalling conditions. The first picture is of the mum; Polly, (grey muzzle), who is around 5 or 6 years of age with one of her pups, who are all from the same litter and are 2 years old. There are 4 pups in total, 3 females and one male. The male is called Dexter and two of the sisters are called Cassy and Abbie, we don't know the name of the third female as yet.

They are all with the Gail who desperately needs some help, as she has these alongside her own 6 dogs. If anyone can help with at least fostering, would you get in touch with Gail directly on 07 69 01 50 92 or myself on 06 04 47 35 19. They have all been wormed and de-flead. They are all quite timid as they have had no interaction with humans other than the person who kept them in the appalling conditions they were found in, but are progressing slowly with Gail. All they want is a loving home.

This could possibly be the round up of tests for this year. Congratulations for gaining Bronze Award to Nathalie Vartanpour and Pippa, Nicky Howard and Luna and Julia Graham and little Alfie, who is one of our youngest Bronze Award participants at only 6 months old. Next time will be their Silver Awards 😊.
Thanks to Robert Liddiard for conducting the tests.

I thought I should share this because bloat, (also called GDV: gastric dilatation-volvulus) is something every dog owner needs to know about. It can take a dog’s life so suddenly, and often people miss the early signs.

Signs of bloat to watch for:

• Distended belly that feels tight like a drum
• Trying to vomit or retch with nothing coming up
• Excessive drooling or foaming at the mouth
• Restlessness: pacing, can’t settle, clear discomfort
• Rapid breathing or signs of shock: pale gums, weak pulse, collapse.

What to do if you suspect bloat:

• Get to the vet immediately. This is a true emergency. Don’t wait and see
• Call ahead to let them know you’re coming so they’re ready
• Do not try to treat it at home. Time is everything here

Ways you can reduce the risk:

• Feed smaller meals rather than one big meal
• Avoid vigorous exercise straight after eating or drinking
• Slow down fast eaters with a slow-feeder bowl
• For larger, or deep chested dogs, use a raised feeding stand (I use one of these for my Giant Schnauzer)
• Keep stress levels down, especially around feeding time

Please, take the signs of bloat seriously. Know them. Share them. Act quickly if you ever see them.

These are not my words, but they are my thoughts, and my dogs ❤️

The "dominance" myth

Many many years ago a book was written. This book was based on wolves, and certain observations were made.
After consideration the findings were proved wrong and David Mech asked the publishers not to print any more editions of the book. (It was a bestseller so they continued to publish even after he had condemned the findings and asked them to throw it in the bin)

But the damage had already been done

This was all many years ago (1970) but here we are many decades later and people are still following and initiating the methods that have been disproved and rejected

Among the myths were:

Make sure you eat before your dog

Make sure you go through doors before they do

Make sure your dog doesn't sleep on your bed or sofa

Because if you do your dog "will take over "

I am fed up with explaining that this nonsense only causes dogs to be very unhappy

In the first weeks of rehoming or rescuing a dog, or bringing a young puppy into a home they cause considerable distress and invite people to ignore the life that the dog lived before they "saved" them

For those people who still bang on about how important these "key foundations" to a happy life with a dog are - they couldn't be more wrong and have no idea how damaging this kind of treatment is

My favourites are those "friends" and family and the idiots that recycle this rubbish even though they have no actual knowledge of living with dogs - worse still are the people that have "30 years experience and have never had a problem with their dogs" and find victims while walking their dogs and expound this knowledge to anyone that will stop and listen.

Can we can park those people and actually look at the dog in front of us?

Look at how little your dog actually needs-mostly comprising of empathy and a little knowledge.

The dominance myths will not help a recently rescued dog to settle.

Fast exercise and lots of social engagements will send these dogs into a place where they are forced to communicate their physical and emotional discomfort in ways that are often labelled as aggression.

Do we really think a dog would risk a potentially dangerous situation by meeting a social situation with aggression?

Much is missed if we truly think that we have to control dogs we miss their fleeting lives, and we miss the fact that dogs are not here to test us but need to trust us and feel safe

VERY QUICK UPDATE ...... She's going to a Visla Rescue Society so things are looking up for her 😊

This pitiful little girl, a Hungarian Visla, is looking for a new home. She's from a litter of 5, bred by a farmer who died and whose wife, who couldn't cope, locked them in a garage and by the looks of her (and her siblings) basically forgot about them. They were recently dumped on a client of mine, who has found homes for four of them, but this little girl is still waiting. She is 5/6 months old and has recently been wormed, but no vaccinations to date. If anyone is interested in her, please contact me at LDT and I will give you the details for the foster carer. She is placid and has a very sweet nature. She didn't ask for this so it would be nice to get her a new home too. My number is 06 06 04 47 35 19
