ANYONE who is thinking of getting dogs should read this because you need to understand this reality:
***I am a 21st century dog.***
-I am a Malinois.
Overskilled among dogs, I excel in all disciplines and I'm always ready to work: I NEED to work.
But nowadays I get asked to chill on the couch all day everyday.
-I am an Akita Inu.
My ancestors were selected for fighting bears.
Today I get asked to be tolerant and I get scolded for my reactivity when another approaches me.
-I am a Beagle.
When I chase my prey, I raise my voice so the hunters could follow.
Today they put an electric collar on me to shut up, and you make me come back to you - no running - with a snap of your fingers.
-I am a Yorkshire Terrier.
I was a terrifying rat hunter in English mines.
Today they think I can't use my legs and they always hold me in their arms.
-I am a Labrador Retriever.
My vision of happiness is a dive into a pond to bring back the duck he shot to my master.
Today you forget I'm a walking, running, swimming dog; as a result I'm fat, made to stay indoors, and to babysit.
-I am a Jack Russell.
I can take on a fox, a mean badger, and a rat bigger than me in his den.
Today I get scolded for my character and high energy, and forced to turn into a quiet living room dog.
-I am a Siberian Husky.
Experienced the great, wide open spaces of Northern Europe, where I could drag sleds for long distances at impressive speeds.
Today I only have the walls of the house or small garden as a horizon, and the holes I dig in the ground just to release energy and frustration, trying to stay sane.
I am a Border Collie
I was made to work hours a day in partnership with my master, and I am an unmistakable artist of working with the herd.
Today they are mad at me because, for lack of sheep, I try to chase bikes, cars, children in the house and everything in motion.
I am ...
I am a 21st century dog.
I'm pretty, I'm alert, I'm obedient, I stay in a bag...but I'm also an individual who, from centuries of training, needs to express my instincts, and I am *not* suited for the sedentary life you'd want me to lead.
Spending eight hours a day alone in the house or in the garden - with no work and no one to play or run with, seeing you for a short time in the evening when you get home, and only getting a small toilet walk will make me deeply unhappy.
I'll express it by barking all day, turning your yard into a minefield, doing my needs indoors, being unmanageable the rare times I'll find myself outside, and sometimes spending my days sunk, sad, lonely, and depressed, on my pillow.
You may think that I should be happy to be able to enjoy all this comfort while you go to work, but actually I’ll be exhausted and frustrated, because this is absolutely NOT what I'm meant to do, or what I need to be doing.
If you love me, if you've always dreamed of me, if my beautiful blue eyes or my athletic look make you want me, but you can't give me a real dog's life, a life that's really worth living according to my breed, and if you can't offer me the job that my genes are asking, DO NOT buy or adopt me!
If you like the way I look but aren't willing to accept my temperament, gifts, and traits derived from long genetic selection, and you think you can change them with only your good will, then DO NOT BUY OR ADOPT ME.
I’m a dog from the 21st century, yes, but deep inside me, the one who fought, the one who hunted, the one who pulled sleds, the one who guided and protected a herd still lives within.
So think **very** carefully before you choose your dog. And think about getting two, rather than one, so I won't be so very lonely waiting for you all day. Eight or ten hours is just a workday to you, but it's an eternity for me to be alone.

SPRING HEALTH CARE TIPS - Part Eight
Spring means fun times for dogs so pick up the leash and go for a walk. You are bound to notice a little spring in your dog’s steps.
Furthermore, walks can help to alleviate extra energy your dog may have, calming it down and reducing any hyperactivity and excitability. A good walk also helps your dog to feel more relaxed.

SPRING HEALTH CARE TIPS - Part Seven
Spring for some people means it is time to plan and start your gardening. Selecting plants that are safe for dogs will go a long way in preventing toxic accidents from occurring.
Keep in mind that some dogs can enjoy digging so avoid planting toxic bulbs such as hyacinths, tulips, daffodils and certain lilies. Fertilisers and mulch can be toxic to dogs as well, so store them in an inaccessible area like a shed when not in use.

SPRING HEALTH CARE TIPS - Part Six
Ask your vet about a suitable monthly spot-on treatment that is licensed to treat lung worm.
Owners that feed their dogs outdoors should make sure that there is no food left out for slugs and snails and to ensure they wash their dogs dishes well.
Also check toys that are left outside as they too could be harbouring slugs or snails. We would not recommend using slug pellets to try and control slug and snail numbers as these are toxic to pets.

SPRING HEALTH CARE TIPS - Part Five
The most common route for lung worm infection in dogs is through eating slugs and snails that are carrying the lung worm parasite.
Often ingestion is accidental and dogs can become infected by ingesting slime from a slug or snail or even just by chewing grass that can act as homes for tiny slugs and snails.
Signs of lung worm infection include coughing, breathing difficulties and lethargy.

SPRING HEALTH CARE TIPS - Part Four
A new deadly parasite, known as lung worm, has swept across Europe and is now affecting dogs in Ireland.
Lung worms are a parasitic worm that settles in the lungs and windpipe causing severe respiratory problems.
Complications can lead to more serious problems such as shortness of breath, bronchitis, fluid build-up in the lungs and even pneumonia.

SPRING HEALTH CARE TIPS - Part Three
Spring is a good time to check and make sure your dog’s vaccinations are up to date.
Dog to dog contact increases in the spring and continues on into the summer months. Your dog is therefore exposed to more infectious diseases during this time of year.

Thank you to Meghan for sending this beautiful picture of her Husky puppy, Sky, all the way from Norway. What a gorgeous dog!
Notice the GPS tracker on her harness, just in case she wanders off into the wilderness, so she can be tracked and found. Very clever. 😊🥰❤️

SPRING HEALTH CARE TIPS - Part Two.
Ticks and fleas become more prevalent at this time of year. There are a variety of products available to combat these nuisances, so ask your veterinarian which one is best for your dog.
Start early as preventing ticks and fleas from becoming a problem is far easier than dealing with a major infestation, and get into the habit of regularly checking your dog for ticks too.

SPRING HEALTH CARE TIPS - Part One.
Dogs tend to love spring because they get to spend more time outdoors. After the long winter it is a joy for them to be able to take advantage of the longer and warmer days to release all of their pent up winter energy.
However the warmer days bring about certain health concerns so take a moment and make sure your dog is fully prepared for spring.

This beautiful boy is Barney the Golden Retriever, who sadly passed away last week aged 12 years.
Barney was an absolute gentleman of a dog who got along with absolutely everyone.
He would play with the smallest Shih Tzu to the biggest Burmese. A truly one in a million dog, who will be sadly and sorely missed by us all.
Rest in peace old buddy and thank you for being a part of our lives. 🙏😍🥰❤️

WHY IS WALKING YOUR DOG SO IMPORTANT? People mistakenly think that by letting their dog out in the garden it will get all the exercise and stimulation it needs. Even if your dog has access to an acre or two, it does not necessarily mean that it will run around and exercise itself while you are not there. We all know dogs need to be taken out for walks, but how many of us really understand the reasons why it is so vitally important? Walking obviously provides your dog with exercise, and exercise is important, but that’s only part of the story. In part one of this feature on why regular walks are so vitally important for your dogs health, happiness, and general well-being, we explain how dog walking provides all the physical and mental stimulation your dog needs to help promote a calm, relaxed, healthy and happy dog. Physical Stimulation Research has shown that physical stimulation has a significant therapeutic influence on the well being of your dog. Exercise such as walking produces pleasurable chemicals within the brain, which are responsible for positive mood altering effects, and help promote a calm, relaxed and happy dog. Your dog naturally builds up a certain amount of energy each day that needs to be expended through physical stimulation. If this does not happen through walking, then boredom and frustration can add to this build up of energy. This can result in stress for your dog, which may lead to behavioural problems and health issues. Dogs that have too much energy to burn may display bad, destructive behaviour such as digging, chewing, biting, barking etc. Walking your dog therefore provides an essential outlet for this energy and gives your dog the physical stimulation they need to help prevent behavioural problems and health issues. Mental Stimulation The mental stimulation a dog receives from a walk is very much underestimated. Dogs have a natural instinct to explore their surroundings and they are mentally stimulated when required to use thei
