That's often a result of them being fed too much rich food. Cut down on the meat and use dry mix instead? Obviously, disregard all this if you already
have...

Thanks, seems to have little effect though. It's a good talking point at parties, on the upside.
Onto a previous subject, Danny Baker did an excellent show last Friday upon hearing of Jackson's death - not reverential, just very entertaining based on his personal experiences of interviewing Jacko and his brothers. http://tinyurl.com/lz75rw |

would have a greyhound anyday of the week, proper couch potatoes (didnt realise about the farting though but then I have a labrador whose world is its food
bowl, eats anything and everything and farts the results all day long)
Moxy, ever feel like taking one on, could always do worse than this site: http://www.oldies.org.uk/ plenty of greyhounds. |

Serious question. Would a dog actually go after a rabbit if they were living together? We have a house rabbit and I want to get a dog aswell. The Rabbit is
going nowhere. If I got a pup, would they "bond"? You see clips in You Tube and places where they are very comfortable together. Anyone have any
experience in this area?

Give it a go, mate. If the worst comes to the worst, you will feed the dog for free for a few days!
I think you will struggle. Cats and dogs; yes. But cats are the enemy. Rabbits are, well, dinner. |

I would love to have another dog CT, but I couldn't guarantee being able to look after it properly, so won't.
I realise there is a big problem with ex-racing greyhounds and used to help THESE good people as much as I could... |

if you get the dog as a puppy, say from 9 weeks, then the dog may well grow up fine with the rabbit as it will be used to it. Just dont get a terrier.

Chin, you might get away with it with a lab....great with everything if they're told to. Mine is as thick as fuck but thats the beauty of them, helps if
you give it a stupid name also like I did....Barry. He hates cats but wouldnt actually do anything if up close to one and my cocker hates birds but same for
him if he got one.

Chin.
It would be fine, don't get a sight hound, or any type of hound or terrieras it's instinct to chase and hunt small things, you need a guarding breed or a retriever/gun dog breed as they are soft mouthed, I'd probably go with a labrador. |

Don't touch OBE.
Cockers need constant attention, can never be left alone, are very destructive and can be subject to rage episodes. Essentially they're a working dog, not a pet. Get a greyhound... |

My dog gets washed once a month by a dog groomer who comes round in a dog truck just like the one from dumb and dumber and I also use fantazia dog spray, you
house won't stink if you stick to that and nor will your dog.
OB send me a yuku about your lifestyles (nothing kinky though) and i'll give you a breed of dog that will suit it if you like. |

Thanks for the offer JD, we're not living together yet so it's a way off.............got a feeling she'll win this one.........her last cocker died
about 2 years ago, she's got her heart set on it......

CT, buy Burns dried dog food mate. It's holistic, 100% natural with no hidden stuff, great for keeping the weight off labs and the best thing is your dog
will stop farting (unless you're giving him loads of treats) and it makes scooping the poop a delight compared to what I had to pick up before. No more
sloppy stinkers that make you gag (no, not the Saints bird) just 3 or 4 hard lumps which don't stink.
