So sorry for your loss Jeff. Pekoe was a very lucky girl and you are heck of a lucky man to have had Pekoe. Our deepest condolences.....

Run free Alf, run free........

Deepest sympathies,
Leonora & mum

I've finally managed to gather enough strength to open this thread. I've read through it all in tears and I am glad I did. After loosing our first chow, Cha-cha, to bloat over 20 years ago, my mother still can't make herself own another. My folks have had several dogs since then, but she says she is...

Pekoe is a fighter. I sincerely hope she pulls through this one as well. Our thoughts are with Jeff & Peks.

We've got a doggie seatbelt/harness for LEO. Used to use it on long jouneys of an hour or more, especially if I was on my own driving. She sits at the rear passenger seat on our SUV. It worked, and I'd say it is definitely safer if I'm on my own w/ her(w/o DH or anyone else to restrain her, in rare...

Awww, who's the cute model, then? I've got to get one for my mum! Are they men's sizes?

At one week old spending 4.5 hours down the drain means he's spent a major part of his life down the drain.....

As Auddymay mentioned, you could bring Louie in to the reception area of the vet and have them treat him. My LEO knows all the receptionists and vet techs and they all love her. The vet is her main boarding place while we are away, and she knows where the treats kept. :oops: She can't wait to get th...

Happy Gotcha Day, Troy da Good Boy!!

Call me weak, but I bribe LEO into doing things alot. Put/Throw a treat on to the car seat or where ever you want her to go. She'll contemplate, but normally it works. I do this to get her into the car, get her out of Starbucks, get into the house, just make her walk in the way I want her to walk......

I do not know of your area but the way I found my groomer was by talking to fellow dog owners on the street and to fellow dog walkers in the neighbourhood. That's how I got a good vet for her as well. And a boarding kennel. I also surfed on the net for comments. The groomer doesn't have to speciali...

Happy Birthday, Butters! Many Happy Returns!

According to my vet, there are no such thing as "cold" for dogs. He called it "upper respiratory infection", and told me it takes a long time to clear up. Why do I know this? It's because we've been through it with LEO. She was kenneled for two weeks and got it there. It took her...

Maxine is smiling in the third picture. How cute.

Happy Day, Miss PB. Many happy returns!

Your Little Sis, Big Baby Leonora

I checked the Nutrisouce site, and indeed they do have a large breed line and large breed puppy with following ingredients. Looked for Calcium and Phosphorus levels but couldn't find that. If you are interested there are lots of thread in teh archive re food. : NutriSourceÒ Large Breed Puppy Chicken...

I just flicked back on my i-cal to see how big my LEO was. 31/01/06, 15wks 29lbs=13.2kg. Louie seems much larger. LEO(Leonora) is now 58lbs. Louie will be a big boy!

Too cute!! He is huge!! Don't let him grow too fast, tho. Bad for the joints. Are you feeding him large breed puppy formula? Regular puppy formula is too nutritious for the larger breeds. Tho chows aren't really a large breed, it is a breed prone to joint and bone problems, so it is safer to stick t...
