<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
When I walk my Hound Dog Hotel guests I meet lots of dog owners who know about my boutique Dog Hotel and we always talk ‘dog’ - our favourite subject. However, I should add, I always walk and talk rather than stand still as it is important to keep dogs occupied during their exercise sessions. Bored dogs standing around waiting on their leader to do something invariably either run off or get into trouble. Keeping moving avoids that.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
Not just the owners but their doggies know me too as they associate me with tasty Treats I always carry. One such local is a gorgeous blue roan Cocker Spaniel, Charlie.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
Now Charlie’s owner has had real difficulty leaving Charlie with anyone as he apparently gets stressed and when she comes home she will find Charlie with an upset tummy which can take days to get right. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
Recently Charlie’s usual minder was unable to look after her beloved boy so she asked me if I thought Charlie would be OK with me. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
Charlie would fly up to me whenever he saw me out, (he’s very food focussed and I give him treats) so he already had good personal associations with me. The next stage was to get Veronique to bring Charlie to the Hound Dog Hotel to let him have a sniff around to become familiar with the place. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
They brought him over, and in he came with his nose to the ground and he went flying around the premises and garden having a great experience.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
Reassured – although still a little worried about how he would be – Veronique booked Charlie in with me for 4 days.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
I found Charlie to be a happy little boy with a constantly wagging tail. He settled in like one of my regulars. It really was as if he’d been here many times before.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
I did notice when it came to random noises that Charlie was a little nervy, he was ready to bark at the slightest noise. Whilst he was with me I worked on that.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
When Veronique collected him she was thrilled to know his tummy had been fine with no upsets. I also took the time to have a chat about his barking and how she might deal with that – as I had found he responded exceptionally well to the feedback I gave him and he learned to stop barking very quickly.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
So here is an email I received a few days later from Veronique. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<i><span style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "helvetica neue"; font-size: 11pt;">“Hi Maralyn,</span></i><i><span style="color: #212121; font-family: "helvetica neue"; font-size: 11pt;"><br /><br /><span style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">The proof is in the poo and Charlie's has been perfect the past 2 days! We followed your instructions about his barking and I cannot believe it but he has stopped. At the moment there are three work guys in the house and Charlie is remaining calm. He is hanging around me for treats but he's not bothered at all by the 3 guys running up and down the stairs continuously. He came home very relaxed and has stayed that way. Thank you, you're a gem! Veronique” </span></span></i><i><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 10pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
What this shows is it is always worth spending time getting your dog to know their minder and be familiar with the surroundings they are going to stay in before their first time at a new venue. Your dog will settle and be happy and as we all know, a happy dog = a happy (and in Veronique's case relieved) owner!! <o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I've been recommending a raw and fresh feeding regime to my clients for a long time.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I knew kibble could not be ideal, but hey, we all feed it and vets recommend it so it must be good, right? Wrong. I've just discovered proof of how bad kibble is and it has shocked me to the core. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

Not written a blog for a long time as been so busy! However, felt compelled to write on this subject which is so important to dog owners. Some readers may already know that I run the Hound Dog Hotel near Gosford, Central Coast, and one particularly long stay guest of mine is a dear Cavoodle, Coconut. </div>

Coconut has been staying for three months. She is a real character, feisty, confident, fun and very active. She's not scared or nervous around other dogs. In fact in my hotel it is the other dogs, often four times her size, who are wary of her!!</div>
<div style="color: #1d2129; font-family: system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, ".SFNSText-Regular", sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
When out on our Adventure Walks she loves to play and run and chase dogs of all sizes, she's happy to be chased too.</div>
<div class="text_exposed_show" style="color: #1d2129; display: inline; font-family: system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, ".SFNSText-Regular", sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px;">
But recently something happened which every small dog owner dreads. We were in East Gosford at a place called the Friendship Walk where there is a small leash free Oval. There are some nice areas either side of the Oval although dogs have to be on a lead in them.</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
I’d been out about an hour, at this point Coconut was on leash, and we were returning to the Oval. Since I’d left the Green earlier, two women had arrived with 2 dogs and one was a brown cattle dog. I looked at it and did wonder about it so actually asked the owner if it was Ok. She replied yes, so I let Coconut free, off for her final stint of play in an leash run about. </div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
In the blink of an eye one of the dogs started to chase Coconut but then the cattle dog joined in and I could see straight away this dog was aggressive and meant to get her. </div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
Coconut was scared, crying in distress and running fast trying to escape. Then she yelped out in pain as the dog, all teeth and viscous intent, got her.</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
I was trying to get to the dog and managed to distract it by bellowing and then got in between it and Coconut - but it still was trying to get her.</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
This all happened so fast I couldn’t get my stick - which I always carry - off my shoulder quick enough to hit it, but I did had managed to clump it with my handbag at some point.</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
I was shaken but furious and had a confrontation with the woman. However, did not find out until I was leaving that her dog has ‘form’ in this behaviour. (As I was leaving at man with a couple of dogs I’d spoken to earlier passed me and said he did not blame me for having a go at the woman as people had “had words with her before”. )</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
Why do these morons know their dog is unsafe yet continue to let them free in a public place with no muzzle - and I’d even asked her if it was ok?</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
After getting back I checked Coconut and the dog’s top two canine teeth had made contact with her back. To my huge relief the wounds are superficial.</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
Fortunately because Coconut was so fast she had been able to avoid a full bite, plus as I was right there to intervene the damage was limited - but this could have been so much worse.</div>

<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
Yes these sort of incidents are rare - Coconut must have been on 100 walks with me during her long three month stay and nothing like this has occurred anywhere else.</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
So who was to blame for this? </div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
There is only one answer - it is ALWAYS THE OWNER.</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
Do you believe it when owners say 'Oh they've never done that before'. In the case above the woman knew her dog was a menace yet (1) she even confirmed it was OK and (2) she brings it to an off leash area and (3) she does not have a muzzle on it.</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
I run a local Facebook page called 'Davistown Dogs' and one of our members posted this event which happened after the Coconut one :</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;">"Was out at Terrigal dog park today and someone let a pit bull run around with it's muzzle removed and guess what? It attacked a female labrador twice before anyone could get to it - the attacks were for no reason".</span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="background-color: white;">It's time these owners who have no regard for anyone else face huge fines AND the risk of having their dog taken away and banned from keeping dogs. How else can the rest of us keep the dogs we love safe?</span></div>

<h3>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">This Blog has valuable and practical advise for those with an ill or sick dog (or even those with a dog that is fit but skinny and cannot put on weight). </span></span></h3>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I've written many blogs and a number related to dogs’ health and also about obesity in dogs. Overweight dogs are far more prevalent than those that are too thin (my blog: When a Pooch has a Paunch Problem) But what can you do to help underweight dogs? Read on to find out.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">From a health perspective a skinny, fit dog would be far less of a concern to a Vet than a Pooch like a Porker! But a dog can be too thin, and if this condition is related to ill health, it can be very challenging to turn it around and</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"> you end up with a negative spiral. Your dogs health goes rapidly down hill when they can no longer tolerate or get benefit from normal food.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Past a certain point, with their become so system compromised and they may be so ill that they have no appetite and can’t be tempted to eat at all.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">We had exactly this situation with my daughter’s wonderful boxer, Elly who was about 4 when she started to get unwell. We were constantly taking her for tests yet our vet could not find what was causing her to be so ill. As days turned to weeks Elly’s deterioration was distressing to see.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Not eating and barely drinking, Elly had to be carried outside to go to the toilet. She was </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">becoming weaker and weaker, could barely move, and all her sparkle had gone. She wasn’t even able to raise a tail wag.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Elly went from her normal healthy weight of around 25 kgs to barely 19kgs – skin & bone . She was wasting away before our eyes and still we did not have a diagnosis.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Looking at her one night it hit me she was so ill, thin and frail she was actually going to die of starvation if we did not get find out what the problem was, and turn it round – fast.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">So I said to my daughter she should get a referral to SASH (Australia’s world famous Small Animal Specialist Hospital)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Arriving at SASH we were fortunate to see Vet Dr Justin Wimpole. Justin has a wonderful approach to both dogs and their owners. He scooped up Elly’s by now tiny body into his arms and as he held her there she didn’t move. She was all legs and angles with bones jutting out of her head. He said very simply “this is a very sick little girl”.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">At last Justin had put into words what we seen over the weeks and my daughter and I were crying with relief and worry all in one.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">After that Justin’s investigations found the problem very quickly. (It was found to be a digestive problem, rare for dogs in general, but found in certain breeds, including boxers).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">With a definitive diagnosis finally Elly was prescribed the right drug to treat her condition. But her recovery was far from certain because by now our darling girl could barely stand. Even on the medicine she still had no interest in eating anything. A drip might have kept her alive, but was not realistic as it wouldn’t have built her up.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Elly desperately needed energy - yet how could we get energy into her? We'd tried every food recommended. In fact every conceivable variation of protein based dog foods and human foods, yet she had no interest, would sniff and walk away – nothing could tempt her.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Then I suddenly had my stroke of genius – tempting her was the answer because she was sniffing food – but with what? I realised she needed something tasty, easy to eat and in a way that was almost predigested calories - and that was what I came up with.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">When I first made my concoction and Elly lapped it all up – we all cheered and cried at once. It had been so long she would touch anything – and she kept it down and wanted more.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">The food that worked the magic was a home made <b>Carb & Protein Mash</b>. It had the effect of stimulating her appetite and within a few days bit by bit we were able to introduce normal food and we gained time which allowed the medicine time to do its work.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Now I fully admit this will not win prizes for nutrition! But it does answer as a short term method of getting calories - and thus energy - into a dog when normal foods aren’t working.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Clearly my <b>Carb & Protein Mash</b> it is not a substitute for normal protein dog foods – just keep in mind what the intention is. It is for an acute period to give your dog concentrated calories to build them up and help them recover.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<b><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">SO HERE IS MY MAGIC LIFE SAVING CARB & PROTEIN MASH. </span></b><b><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">DRUM ROLL …..</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">7-8 plain biscuits, I usually used Rich Tea but 6 Digestives would be OK</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">2 Wheatabix or Oat Brits</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Cup of hot milky tea with 2 teaspoons sugar</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">An egg</span></span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Optional extra: 1 tsp powdered Brewer’s Yeast*</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Optional extra: small amount cooked basmati rice (I didn’t add this to my mix but you could)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br />
<ol>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Crunch up the biscuits & Wheatabix (or Oat Brits) into a bowl</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Make the tea put a couple of sugars in then add an amount of milk to make it milky</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Pour the tea over the biscuits & Wheatabix</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Mash it until no obvious biscuit is seen into a smooth, warm mash</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Break a raw egg into this and stir in</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Mix in a teaspoon of powdered Brewers Yeast (not essential)</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Offer a portion* of this to your dog whilst it's still warm</span></span></li>
</ol>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">The above mix is around 900 calories consisting mainly of carbs and sugar. There is some easily digested protein in the form of the milk and egg. Fat content is low deliberately.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<b><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">NB </span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">If you don’t have fresh milk pour on black tea but then sprinkle a couple of tablespoons of skimmed milk into the mixture.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">*Some dogs are allergic to yeast, and the symptoms seen can be itchy skin and upset, bloated, gaseous stomachs. Overall, for most dogs, brewer's yeast is safe and beneficial. With a dog that is thin through illness then give this Mash without this and you could add it in later and then you would know if it has any negative effects</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<b><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">IMPORTANT</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">*This is a large amount of food and may overload your sick dog’s system if given all at once.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">In which case if this is for a dog that is ill with little appetite make the full amount but give little and often through the day- some every hour or even 45 mins – you need to assess and see how it goes.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">For maximum temptation offer this to your dog when it’s warm. If giving it throughout the day gently reheat a portion in the microwave (be careful not to let it get too hot). A sick dog might get runny poo if this is all they are eating. Though because so much of this is easily digested there is not too much waste.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<b><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">WHAT ABOUT A FIT BUT SKINNY DOG?</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Keep in mind my CARB & PROTEIN MASH is very useful for a fit skinny dog. Case in point GSP Pepper. She is exceptionally fit but underweight – ribs protruding and sharp bones in her shoulders/chest. The owners struggled to get her to gain weight as whenever they increased her normal food by giving her an extra third meal she always ended up with diarrhea.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">When Pepper came and stayed with me and I gave her the mash mix in the middle of the day – the result was a noticeable improvement and weight gain in just 10 days.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">If you make the amount above for a fit dog which happens to be skinny you might be able to feed it all at once. I would give it all to Pepper in the middle of the day between her two normal meals and she didn’t get diarrhea. But you would monitor your dog as tolerations to large amounts varies.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<b><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Foot note re Vet Dr Justin Wimpole of SASH</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">After Justin’s help in finding the root problem of Elly’s illness she recovered and my daughter, her sister and I were blessed with some more wonderful years with her.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">However in 2016 when she was coming up to her 10th birthday again she was ill. This time symptoms were different but despite lots of tests the local vets could not diagnose the problem. So we asked for a referral and again took her to Justin at SASH. Astonishingly Justin remembered Elly, but not only that, he took one look at her and believed - and was subsequently proved correct by blood tests and investigations – that she had a malignant tumour of the brain.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>

The client sees everything - the air conditioned TV room where the dogs live with me, the garden and outside doggie shower. We agree where their dog will sleep, they get debriefed on how
security works, learn where we go walking (and we can go on a walk together if
they wish). They are given a very detailed Checklist in which everything I need to know about their dog is recorded. <o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">65-year-old Sydney North Shore resident Mr John Walsh appeared in Manly Local Court on Tuesday 14 November 2017, and pleaded guilty to failing to provide veterinary treatment for a large open wound in Otis the pug’s neck for a period of two weeks. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Taken into account on a Form One schedule on sentence was a charge of committing an act of cruelty in relation to failing to take off Otis’ synthetic travel harness for a period of three weeks.

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Otis, the six year old pug, was left in the care of Mr Walsh through the pet minding service ‘Madpaws’ for three weeks while his owner was overseas. During this time Mr Walsh failed to remove the harness, inflicting a large, deep and malodourous wound across Otis’ neck and ulcerated lesions on his tongue from attempting to chew the harness off.
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">Magistrate Longley convicted Mr Walsh of Sequence One, with a fingerprinting order, and an $800 fine with moiety to RSPCA NSW. RSPCA NSW Prosecution requested a prohibition order to stop Mr Walsh from being able to work with animals, but it was denied. At the time of sentence, Mr Walsh was still working under Madpaws pet minding service. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Magistrate Longley commented that “the dog can’t talk to tell whoever is in care of that animal that something is wrong. When you put yourself in the public arena to look after dogs, there is an expectation that care will be exercised by that person.”
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">“The RSPCA reiterates that those persons profiting from the care of animals need to be held accountable and to a higher standard,” comments RSPCA NSW Deputy Chief Inspector Scott Meyers.
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">“It’s disappointing that someone has abused the trust placed in them to look after a vulnerable animal.”
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The agreed facts tendered outline that Otis’ owner contracted Mr Walsh through the pet sitting website Madpaws to look after his two dogs Otis and Dobby a 7 year old Boxer while on an overseas holiday from 3 July 2017 and 15 August 2017 for $36 per night per dog.
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">On Saturday 1 July 2017 Otis was taken to a veterinary hospital by his owner to have vaccinations and a health check and was found to be healthy. On Monday 3 July 2017 Otis and Dobby were dropped to Mr Walsh’s Elanora Heights residence on Sydney’s North Shore. Otis was wearing a travel harness and dog coat at the time.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">On 14 July 2017 the owner first requested photos of the dogs be sent via email. He requested again on 20 July 2017 and on 23 July 2017.
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">On 24 July 2017 Mr Walsh sent a photo of Otis to the owner, immediately the owner noticed the discolouration around the pug’s chest area and requested the harness be removed. Mr Walsh removed the harness at request and asked the owner if he would like him to take him to the veterinarian.
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">On 25 July 2017 Otis was presented to a veterinarian who found that he had an open wound 15cm x 3 cm and 20-30mm deep, a strong malodorous smell, had lost weight, there was a pressure sore on his chest, matted exudate around the wound, and ulcerated lesions on his tongue.
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The veterinary report outlines that the wound was deep and relatively large given the dog’s small stature, extending the full width of his chest and curving around his shoulders. The report concluded that the pain inflicted to Otis was unreasonable and caused by the failure to remove the harness.
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The owner’s mother picked up Otis and transported him to her local veterinary clinic where he underwent surgery on the wound inflicted by the embedded harness and has since made a full recovery.
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">RSPCA NSW inspectors were alerted to the matter and attended Mr Walsh’s residence and conducted a recorded interview, during which time he admitted that Otis was healthy when he was dropped off and he hadn’t taken off the harness the whole time. He said he hadn’t noticed the injury because the dog was not at a high enough level for him to look at the chest. Mr Walsh claimed that he had fulfilled his duty of care looking after both dogs. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">There are many blogs existing still on this site, however, my more recent Blogs are on my new website. As you will see below these include topics such as recall training and dog obedience, dog beds (and why they are so important) and useful hints on your dogs safety, even how to make dogs toys for free (well almost) and overweight dogs plus much more besides:</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">At the Hound Dog Hotel all doggie guests have to show they are up to date with their inoculations - this works for the safety of each guest and all my clients have no trouble producing their dog's certificates.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">It is also a requirement that dogs must have protection against fleas and ticks. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">This area can be quite contentious and I do understand that some people worry about the effects of tablets and medicines upon their dog. But in the case of ticks - being resistant to the idea of dosing your dog with an efficacious treatment could cost your dog their life.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">In my opinion and experience, Flea collars are simply not adequate. According to quality they vary in how effective they are, and whilst some might be Ok in areas of low incidents of ticks, where dogs are being walked in summer in grassy areas, the chances of ticks escalate. And when dogs also like to swim - a collar will not cut it. Plus if the collar gets wet, it can take up to 24 hours to 'recharge' back to full protection.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Personally I recommend Nexgard which provides very high protection with a monthly dose.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">There are other products which promise longer (3 month) protection. I have personal feedback from a vets I know that last year during Spring they had a number of ticks from dogs actively taking protection. In each case the dogs were on the product offering 3 months - not one of the cases was on a dog taking Nexgard.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Having said that - nothing is guaranteed to give 100% protection - so always check you dog very carefully, especially when warmer weather comes.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">A recent first time guest at the Hound Dog Hotel (the best dog care anywhere!) was a gentle soul, 9 year old Kelly, a Kelpie X. At home her owners call her Shadow as she is anxious, and she follows them from room to room getting upset if left. Her anxiety separation might be as she was a Rescue dog, but whatever the reason, to ensure Kelly's not stressed they take her everywhere with them - even to work during the day .</span><br />
<div>
</div>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">With this in mind her owners were very worried about finding someone to care for her for the three weeks they were in the USA - especially as they wanted her to have continual company and not to be left alone at any time.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Happily they found the answer in my Hound Dog Hotel! After contacting me both owners came with Kelly for the usual familiarisation visit. However, I could tell they were exceptionally worried about Kelly. So, over the next few weeks before they went away they made a total of four trips to my Hound Dog Hotel. This was so Kelly could get to know the surroundings, come on walks, get used to our vehicle but above all to know she could trust me. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">As Kelly visibly relaxed being at the Hotel and around me, so did her owners which was the aim. There was no charge for these extra visits or the time devoted to meeting up and taking Kelly for walks prior to her stay. This is because 'Your Dog Is Our Job', and we do whatever it takes to ensure owners can go away confident their dogs will be loved and happy. This is just one part of what we do that makes our service exclusive. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Finally it was “D Day” - Departure Day. Rather than dramatic 'goodbyes', I recommend owners leave quietly, maybe as their dog is in the grounds sniffing the exciting new smells. And there is always so much to interest canine guests here! The fact is, even if they happen to be the only dog present, there will be other doggie scents they can pick up on and investigate.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Once her stay began Kelly had lots of love and attention and was out daily to many different venues. But most of all she was never left alone and she soon settled as she became secure in the knowledge she was safe. </span><br />

So, as with each guest that stays, every single day without fail Kelly's owners were sent very detailed reports of her activities. There were always numerous pictures showing Kelly playing and swimming. In fact Kelly not only adores swimming but it was good for her arthritis, so we often took her to water where she could show off her aquatic skills. And included with the walk reports were screen shots of GPS maps showing where we had been and how long Kelly had been out, which was customarily an hour or more.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">In addition to comprehensive daily reports it's a pleasure to surprise owners by sending them additional messages and pictures! I often did this for Kelly's owners, showing their girl playing “Fetch” games inside the Hotel, or outside rolling in the grass in the garden, or just sleeping - in the lounge during the day or at night with me in my bedroom.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">At the end of Kelly's stay I put together a printed report with some suggestions about Kelly that her owners could review in their own time once they got back home and had recovered from their very long trip. </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Before she went home Kelly was freshly shampooed and looked as fit as a flea. The owners were delighted, as they knew from all the communications they'd been sent how happy Kelly had been. And they could see she'd been well and truly looked after, and really did have her very own holiday!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">From July to October 2016 I was in the UK visiting relatives
and experiencing an extraordinary Indian Summer. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Although away I knew canine guests at our outstanding 5* Boutique HOUND DOG HOTEL - a true Pet Resort - would continue to be looked after to the same standout care my many clients have come
to expect. This is as in my absence my daughter was there providing continuity
and our unique service.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">But whilst it’s was good to visit my family, I did miss looking after doggie guests.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">So imagine how happy I was to meet two Labs, Libby and Bonnie. They came bounding along the pavement to
say hello one day. They had been outside with their owners but on seeing me came to investigate. With broad smiles on their faces as Labs so often have, and
furiously wagging their tails, they were irrisistible.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">UK dog owners are blessed as you can walk your dogs and let them be leash free </span></span><span style="font-family: '"trebuchet ms"', sans-serif; font-size: large;">almost everywhere</span><span style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms', sans-serif; font-size: large;">. One such place is the outstanding Epping Forest. I enjoy walking there - but no walk is the same without a dog (or two) by your
side. So when I heard Libby and Bonnie were alone during the day, I volunteered
to take them out.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">We’d been out for our first walk and they
were good as gold, free and off leash, yet staying close to me the whole time. </span></span><br />
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">A win,
win all round, great for the lovely girls, but equally great for me as I got the doggie fix I was missing!</span></span><br />

look out for one to say hello to. And on a trip to Bournemouth on the south coast I came across a rare
sight – an Avalanche of Afghan Hounds! Actually I make the Avalanche bit up –
but there in the town park were about 10 stunning Afghan Hounds. The owners had
come from far and wide for a meet up. As the owners compared notes the dogs behaved
with great dignity, all lying calmly on the grass.</span></span></span><br />
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">My experience of owners of spectacular dogs
is that they can be friendly - but some can be standoffish. So I was thrilled to
find the owner of Charlie - a superstar stunner of a dog – was more than happy
to talk about his white wonder.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

won some best in show awards – hardly surprising.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I joined in as lots of people took photos
of his handsome hound. But it wasn’t just that Charlie was such a wonderful
canine specimen - his whole manner was regal – like a person born to high
birth.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">This encounter got me thinking I can’t
recall the last time I saw an Afghan Hound in Australia. Maybe this is for
practical reasons with their coats being so labour intensive from the grooming
point of view. Maybe more of a concern in Oz is the heat and nasty Ticks that
could be a problem hiding in such luxuriant coats.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">It was enjoyable being bowled over by an Afghan
Avalanche, but for an everyday happy and smiling companion you’d go a long way
to beat a lovely laughing Lab (or two).<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">

know reduce human blood pressure and helps human and dog bond. And sharing
the sofa or cuddles is one of the joys of dog ownership. But every time you let
your dog get jump up on the sofa <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">before
you invite them</i>, you are putting them in control and into the
'dominant' role. By default you relegate yourself to the subordinate role. It
seems like a small thing, but when you inadvertently put your dog in 'top dog'
position, you also unintentionally put them under huge pressure to take care of
the pack – including you! This can encourage a range of unwanted
behaviours. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

rushing the door and ‘deciding’ who can enter. It may not be obvious but your
dog is under stress because it does not consider you are in charge and feels
pressure to control the situation, and visitors!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">This is quite similar to barging through
doors – a lack of good manners training. Controlling your dog around food is
one of the key ingredients in a recipe for a happy, balanced dog that knows their
pace in the pack. Plus it's good for dogs to have good table manners... <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>no snatching, stealing, or sneaking food. We
teach our children table manners, to wait to start their meal until the rest of
the family do. Dogs must learn to sit and look at you – not the bowl – and wait
until you give the ‘Good Dog!’ before they are free to eat it. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Jumping up is very, very common in dogs
large and small. It’s particularly understandable in small dog as all they are
level with are boring ankles, shins and knees and they want to reach the fun
bits – the hands – the bringers of pats and treats!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Jumping up represents an overly excited
state of mind in your dog. It's far better if they feel relaxed, calm and
reassured. A basic part of dog training is to keep "four on the
floor" and not allow unconstrained jumping up. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Some owners do not realise that it is, in
fact, their small dog who is the one instigating trouble because they fail
to see the bigger picture or miss the signs. All they see is the outcome: a
big dog attacked their little one. Yet often it was the big dog retaliating
simply because it was threatened. Of course a small dominant dog is always
going to come off second best when he pokes a pin in big dog - with bigger jaws
and teeth.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

different to the laid back types No. 9) Of course I pick up my dog! I have to
protect my angel and make sure they don't get bitten - you can’t be too
careful.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I see this far too often - and it takes all
my will power not to go over and interfere! Because by stopping your dog
interacting with others this behaviour turns small dogs from what they could be
- confident, happy & balanced into the opposite - neurotic and
scared.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And an overanxious dog will
suffer from all sorts of phobias which carry through to many other areas.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">When you have a small dog (or puppy) it’s
natural to be careful and owners pick up their dogs with good intentions <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>- to protect them. But there’s a very big
difference between being ‘on the ball’ and watching out for potential danger and
mollycoddling your dog, being so afraid of what may never happen that your dog is
stopped from learning how to be a dog.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Dogs feed off our energy and when we are
feeling worried and constantly picking them up it teaches them to be fearful.
And by not allowing them to mix & play on the ground with other canines
means they miss out on a huge part of their essential natural development. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">A particularly destructive aspect of this
is that as your little dog becomes increasing fearful other dogs sense this.
Then you will end up with real trouble on your hands - literally. It's a
negative spiral as the nerves your dog has developed will encourage other dogs
to jump up at them (and you, as they're in your arms) to find out what the
problem is. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">The more an owner picks up and holds their
dog the more nervous, fearful and likely to be attacked it becomes. The owner
ends up causing the very thing they wanted to avoid. A perfect example of the
'Self Fulfilling Prophecy'.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">With modern TV sets dogs can see other
creatures clearly on the screen. In their world they think an intruder has come
into the room – hence the barking and general hullaballoo. Of course as soon as
the scene changes and the ‘intruder’ disappears, your dog links their ferocious
show of aggression as the reason the animal ‘ran away’.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

thinking it is their job to control who comes into the house. The sooner they
are confident that you are the Alpha dealing with these matters the sooner this
type of behaviours ceases.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">No A’s B’s or C’s? Your dog is pawfect
and you must be a trainer! Either that or you’re a very fortunate, one in a

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Diva/Miva rating is pretty good. You
have a balanced relationship and your dog who knows their place – most of the time!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Diva/Miva rating is climbing. Your dog
might throw a Tantie now and then when it doesn’t want to listen to you. Be
careful as they may be heading towards controlling you rather than you being
the pack leader<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Diva/Miva rating suggests you are no longer

Maria Carey rolled into one (not sure what the human male equivalent is but you
get the picture!) Your dog is either neurotic bag of nerves or a bossy boots
who expects you to wait on them – and you do.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">

your dog!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">What starts out as a demonstration of love
for our dogs is the very thing than can end up ruining them. Instead of being
Pack Leader, without realising, we turn ourselves into ‘fans’ (aka servants)
and our dogs become sun around which our lives revolve. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Our dog doesn’t learn right from wrong,
and/or we think we have to protect them from every risk - and by doing so turn
them into Demonic Divas or Mischievous Mivas.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Dogs must have canine interaction to
understand their world. We must not get in the way of their socialising with
our good intentions. We can’t help them by being a ‘helicopter parent’. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">With a small dog your role is not be be a human
shield. Sure, stand near and be alert and pay close attention to the
surroundings and to other dogs. By doing this you can observe your and other
dogs’ body language and learn to interpret ‘dog speak’. You can soon tell
whether another dog is friend or foe. Most are friends! (see my previous blogs about little Millie and Chloe ('Cavoodles, Pampered or Protected' and 'Is anything Cuter than a Cavoodle?'). <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Re puppies – even the bigger breeds start
off little! So just as with small dogs you do have to be careful when young
puppies are meeting and greeting older and bigger dogs.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Most well adjusted adult dogs know how to play
gently with pups. Although that’s if they're willing to play with them at all as
older dogs often find puppies annoying! This is why puppy play dates are a
great idea... pups playing with pups. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">When approaching mature dogs it’s normal
for a puppy to get barked at and 'told off' occasionally. But to become well
adjusted, they have to go through these introductions and learn how to respond
and make their way in the doggy world.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Even when you only have the best of
intentions it’s easy to make mistakes. I know this from first hand experience
because I was close to turning my first dog into a Miva – and all I did was
love him to bits. However it was not love he needed. Yes he needed affection and kindness -
but even more he needed security and structure– which are different.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">So don’t take it personally if your score
was not what you wanted to see! You can change the situation and improve your
dog’s behaviour by finding out what they need and in the words of one well
known trainer, give them rules, boundaries and limitations. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Once you have a calm assertive dog that
knows and accepts it’s place you can allow him or her to do things that otherwise
would not be advised. It’s a matter of degree and commonsense!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

place. However, any new potential guest does have to be vetted prior to a stay
to ensure they are social. And as you would expect it is vital we have sight of
vaccinations and proof of an up-to-date Flea and Tick programme. In that way
everyone is protected.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

every day without fail. This can be a wonderful walk by Brisbane waters where
there are endless scents of ducks and other birds to investigate. It can be on
one of our many local beaches which have extensive leash free areas and safe
Lagoons to swim in. Or it could be a long walk in the local area. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Whatever walk we do each day clients are
send a GPS print out of the session which shows where we went, the time we were
there and the total duration of the session. And whilst we guarantee a minimum
time out of 45 minutes often it is longer and some days we take the dogs out
twice.<o:p></o:p></span></span><br />

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">What value would put on knowing your dog is
having as great a time on their holiday as you are on yours? Recently I had
three terrific dogs stay with me – Leo,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Audrey and Max – and they had the time of their lives. So I thought I
would share the comments from the three respective owners which of themselves
create a vivid picture of the care your canine will receive. (scroll all the way down for many pictures)</span><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms, sans-serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><i>My 2 year old Labradoodle, Leo, has been a
regular 'guest' of Maralyn's ever since he was a young puppy.<o:p></o:p></i></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><i><br /></i></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><i>What makes Maralyn the 'Perfect Petsitter'
from Leo's doggy perspective? He gets to stay in a wonderful home environment
with a carer who is both wonderfully caring and affectionate - whilst at the
same time reinforcing rules of good doggy behaviour that ensures a consistent
approach to training. The fact that Maralyn only ever has 2 or 3 dogs at a time
means that each stay Leo gets to make new friends, or reconnect with old mates,
but he still gets the personal touch that a big kennel environment cannot
provide. On top of this, he gets a fantastic vacation - romping on the
beautiful beaches of the lovely Central Coast.<o:p></o:p></i></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><i>What makes Maralyn the Perfect Petsitter
from my - the owner's - perspective? I am always 100% confident that Leo is
going to be well cared for in every way. I get a daily 'map my dog walk' and
fantastic photos (Maralyn has a great eye!) so that I can follow his daily
adventures. I know he's being fed and exercised properly, as he always returns
in top health! Maralyn always goes the extra mile - showering the dogs
every time they've been to the beach or get muddy, administering medication
when needed, and even taking him to the vet when concerned.<o:p></o:p></i></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">They say never work with animals or
children. Well I’ve lived and worked with dogs for many years and wouldn’t
change it. But as any dog owner or Pet Minder like me knows, occasionally what
starts off as a normal dog walk can turn into something quite different …</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Here on the Central Coast I was pet sitting
two lovely dogs, Leo the Labradoodle and Toto a Lagotto Romaganolo (an Italian
gun/water dog). <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I’ve pet minded Leo for 150+ days and since
he’s not yet two this is like his second home. I also trained Leo for his owner
from when he was a puppy so am confident he can be free in any dog off leash
area as he can be relied upon to stay with me. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Toto has selective recall, which is a
concern as by 14 months you need to know your dog will not be running off. In
particular if he sees birds he will dash after them and ignore calls to return.
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Because of this to be safe side he had
to remain on a leash or long lead when out.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

beach, but we also have a great walk was along the edge of Brisbane waters, which
is where we were this day. So far so uneventful – who could have predicted it
would end up in a two canoe doggie rescue!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Leo was let off the moment we reached the

to give him freedom to run and play fetch in the waters edge. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Fun and games until…. Toto saw some ducks
and made a sudden lurch that pulled the leads out of Gail’s hand. Before she
could grab the end he was off, bounding through the shallows then swimming out
towards the birds in the distance.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Cue much calling of Toto! Toto!! TOTO!!! –
but to no effect. Even the considerable weight of three leads could not hold
him back as he struck out with determination for the ducks.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Gail stayed where Toto had got free whilst
I ran round the bend in case he came to shore on the other side of the
mangroves. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I could see him but even calling
‘Toto, TREATS!’ (he loves treats and this normally work like magic when we are
at home) had no effect. His mind was only on reaching the ducks who, being in
their domain, simply teased him by calmly paddling just out of his reach. And
all the time he was being tempted to swim further and further away and at times
he was so far away his head was a dot.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Occasionally he’d turn and come back in our

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I ran to where I knew there were some small

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">By now our calls were becoming louder and
more frantic. And as if all the racket we were making wasn’t bad enough, Toto, hugely
frustrated by the restriction of the leads and not being able to get remotely
close to the birds, started screaming! <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This
unique sound he makes is like no other dog I’ve ever heard - it sounded like someone
was being tortured. All this hullabaloo carried over the Green Point airwaves
so that anyone within a half mile radius would have heard the commotion!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">This had been going of for over 10 minutes
and I was seriously thinking I’d have to go in and swim for him (there’s
nothing I won’t do for ‘my’ dogs!). However, just then I saw on the far bank a
home owner we’d spoken to earlier (who’d asked why Toto was on 3 leads)
paddling over to us in his canoe! At the same time from house right behind us a
lady was bringing out their family canoe and paddle. So all that noise did have
the benefit of local people seeing what was happening and fantastically coming
to our aid.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"> Gail got in a canoe and she and the man in
the other canoe herded Toto by a pincer movement. Gail did not want to risk Toto slipping out of
a collar if she tried to swim him in, so with the gentleman holding her canoe
she grabbed Toto and lifted him into hers. </span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">During all this mayhem thank goodness I
could rely on Leo to stick by me! In fact he found it great fun chasing me as I
ran back and forth along the bank variously trying to keep an eye on where Toto
was or to find a boat.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">By now a group of people were on the bank
watching the ‘entertainment’. And as she came to shore Toto was sitting upright
at the ‘helm’ of Gail’s canoe looking like Captain Cook! <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">

this happens - <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>but the kind lady who
lent us her canoe went and got her phone and took some pics and you can just
about see Toto on the front). <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Once out Toto absolutely stank of mud and
the murky water, so back home it was into a warm shower.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Traditional function is as a gundog, specifically
water retriever. Today they are often used to hunt for truffles. This breed of
dog is very smart and Toto is a good example of that.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">A SERIOUS NOTE ABOUT RECALL:<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Toto came to me for the first time when he
was 12 months old. Although I’d been given permission to let him be off lead,
it became clear to me early on that his recall was too unreliable to be allowed
off in my care.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">When I realised I could no longer trust him
to come to call I made an 8 metre long rope lead and used that so at least he
could at least play and run to some extent when we went out.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">When his owner collected him after his
first stay I introduced her to the long leash. It is better than constantly
being on a short leash, but long lead or short, never letting a dog run free
means if they ever do escape it becomes very difficult to get them back.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Toto is about 14 months now and had a long
time to figure out that he doesn’t have to come back once he’s free as he knows
you can’t catch him. At his age now to achieve a reliable recall would be a
real challenge – even for a very experienced trainer.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Never being able to be run free unless
within a fenced compound - a life on lead - is the future for dogs not trained
to recall. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This is why it is so
essential to train and work on obedience and ‘good manners’ training as soon as
you get your pup – the younger the better.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Good recall might not only save your dog’s
life one day, but will ensure a good quality of life for them too. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">On a sunny afternoon in late December I’d already exercised
my lovely doggie guests (Hugo, Hula & Murphy) in the morning on the fantastic Copacabana beach - heaven for dogs with beach and a Lagoon for swimming. But as my daughter
was taking her Boxer out I went with her, treating my pack to a second walk. The
dogs were thrilled to see their leads again and excited to be going on another adventure.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">We went to the local Estuary which at low tide reveals mud flats. This is why my
walks there tend to be at high tide when the water’s right up to the grass
bank.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">To keep Hugo and Hula occupied
I was throwing the ball and they were happily chasing it and playing together. Murphy occasionally gave chase but mostly he Elly were trotting along

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">We’d been out a fair time and began heading back when
suddenly, and quite out of character, I realised Murphy the White Westie was
about to make for the water. But to reach it first meant him crossing a 5 metre
stretch of thick black mud! <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I immediately called him – but it was obvious his mind was
made up as he determinedly waded, up to his chest in mud, across to the water. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Then, suddenly Elly too was in the mud also heading for the
water! As one Claire and I called ‘Elly!!’ but just like Murphy she ignored us too
! <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Then before you could blink, Hula, obviously wanting to see
what was going on, was no longer interested in ball play with Hugo, instead she
was in the mud charging out to the others. Called her, she also ignored
us. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Hugo was now alone on the grass (ball still in mouth – he loves
a ball). Now, in theory there was
still time to call him, but at this point we were laughing so hard at the comedy
of mud and mayhem playing out before us we both were rendered incapable of speech!
So naturally Hugo had to investigate and with his glorious golden blond soft lamb
coat, he too jumped into the sludge.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 14pt;">One thing that
every person who uses our services says is that they cannot bear the thought of having to put
their dog into kennels. And when you have the choice of the highest level of
care where where your dog lives in the house with us (in air-conditioned luxury) you can forget about ever using a kennel again.</span><span style="font-size: 14pt;"> Think instead Boutique 4 Paw Doggie Hotel - where your dog
is truly a VIP!</span></div>

of our service, but also the love, care, exercise and fun pets receive when
staying with us as part of the family.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt;">Not only was Honey the colour of this adorable little Spaniel - but
her nature was sweet as honey also! </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="font-size: 14pt;">Her owners adored
their little girl and were worried about how she would settle being away from
them. So they had barely left before I winged them texts
with pictures showing Honey settling in, which helped them feel at ease.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt;">As well as round
the clock human company, Honey had ready made canine pals too. First Elly, my
daughter’s welcoming, laid back and super socialised Boxer, was around. Leo was also present. Leo is a sparky Labradoodle and we’ve looked after since he was 12
weeks old (blogged about him before see <a href="http://perfectpetsitter.blogspot.com.au/2015/04/cavoodles-other-doodles-integrate-or.html" target="_blank">here</a>).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">

<b><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif;">Thank you for the costing, we’re happy with the arrangements and would like to go ahead and pay you. How do we do that? Also if for some reason you don’t want to take Hula after your meet and greet in a few weeks, are we fully refunded? </span></span></b></div>

<b><span style="font-size: large;">Guess what, this afternoon I met somebody who knows Honey's owners. I was speaking to a dog owner at the park and it came up in conversation when we were talking about me boarding Hula on the Central Coast. I’m happy to report that the man said Honey looked like a new dog when she returned.</span></b></div>

<i><span style="font-size: 19px;"><span style="color: blue; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Yes Honey did go back very trim and in terrific shape due to all the exercise (and of course keeping her food quantities to the ideal levels).</span></span></i><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><i><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 19px;">And to answer the question the client asked about Hula and the deposit, a deposit is not normally until we have met the dog that is coming to stay.

When one of my client’s dogs – Pebbles, a
very cute Jack Russell - died in January this year, it was a
heartbreaking time as anyone who has lost an adored pet knows.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Pebbles had a number of neuroendocrine
tumors, but well before discovering this and how ill Pebbles was, her owner had
booked me to look after her for a month over Christmas/New Year. It was during
the interim she found Pebbles had cancer and treatment began.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span>
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0gkecoE4Wi8/VdwbhlG0mSI/AAAAAAAABg8/H0jpK-S9Hh4/s1600/Pebbles2.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="224" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0gkecoE4Wi8/VdwbhlG0mSI/AAAAAAAABg8/H0jpK-S9Hh4/s320/Pebbles2.png" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Her owner was naturally very worried about
going away for such a long period as by then Pebbles was living on borrowed
time. But it was not realistic to cancel a longstanding family trip – and as I
had already lived-in and looked after Pebbles on a number of previous
occasions, Pebbles’ owner knew I would give her every possible care. In what was to be my final month with
Pebbles I barely left her as she had severe anxiety seperataion and got stressed
if alone even for a short time. But overall, other than the fact she got tired
quickly, Pebbles soldiered on and seemed almost normal.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">When her owners came back I was so happy to
see Pebbles greet her family - it was joyous reuinion. Pebbles still
seemed well too, especially when you knew she had already out lived, by many
months, the usual life expectancy once her type of cancer was diagnosed.</span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">One afternoon, just three weeks after their
return, Pebbles took a turn for the worse. She was rushed to her specialist vet
– but sadly there was no way back.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Many people with terminal pets ask how they
will know when it is time to stop fighting and accept the inevitable. The fact
is you always know - as did Pebbles owner. It doesn’t stop the guilt of course,
but in your heart you do know when it is time to let you beloved pal move on to
find permanent peace. And as awful as it was, Pebbles' owner was able to have
her wish granted which was to be with her special girl and hold her at the very
end.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">During the last few weeks of Pebbles’ life
her owner wrote me a wonderful reference which, up to now, I have not had the
heart to publish. But I do so many months on as a mark of thanks to her for
taking to time to write it. It is also time for me to pay my respects to one
smashing little dog.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><b>Testimonial for Maralyn Nash of Perfect Pet
Sitter</b><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><i>We have a 14 year old Jack Russell named
Pebbles. Last year we realised that it wasn't fair to put Pebbles in a kennel
while we were away, and we trawled the Net to find a live in Petsitter. We
located Maralyn Nash of Perfect Petsitter, met her and immediately warmed to
her, and she pet sat for us 3 times in 2014.<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><i>Shortly after the first sit in March 2014,
Pebbles was diagnosed with cancer. We were of course devastated as she is like
one of our children, and up until then had seemed a fit and healthy dog who
loved walking long distances and had lots of energy. After investigating a few
options for her treatment, she was put on Palladia, a new cancer medication for
animals and has been on these tablets for 10 months. While her energy levels
are quite low these days, and she is on other medications now to stabilize her
general health, she is still enjoying life, eating everything in sight, loves a
swim at the beach and a sniff at the park, and even picks up her toys and tries
to get us to play a game.<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><i>Maralyn looked after Pebbles for 4 weeks from
December 2014. I was very anxious to leave her as her health wasn't great when
we left and she had various Vet visits scheduled, lots of medications to take,
and we didn't really know how she would progress while we were away.<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><i>Every day while we were overseas, Maralyn
emailed me with a detailed report of how Pebbles was, what she had eaten, her
bowel movements (important given the meds she is on), what the Vets had said
and any changes to medications, how she seemed generally, along with photos of
her. This meant so much to me as she is such an important part of our family,
and it made me much less anxious knowing she had such consistent, loving care
in her own home. Pebbles sleeps on our bed at home and Maralyn allowed her to
still do this so she felt totally comfortable with her carer.<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><i>I cannot recommend Maralyn highly enough
not only for her wonderful, loving care of Pebbles, but also for keeping in
touch so diligently and making sure we knew exactly what was going on. She also
took Pebbles to the Vet whenever needed and looked after our house beautifully
and took care of any suppliers who were scheduled.<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><i>Maralyn is a reliable, trustworthy,
compassionate, loving lady who obviously adores animals, and I would have no
hesitation recommending her service to anyone who requires the best petcare
available.<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">At Perfect Pet Sitter we care for your pets
as you would. For example, when living-in and minding our clients dogs we walk
them daily. Exercise is included free because we know the importance of exercise to dogs - that means running, playing and above all, MOVING. So you
never see Perfect Pet Sitter stand around when taking your dogs out.</span><br />

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">It’s easy to do – so why don't those who walk dogs for a living do this? I’m afraid the truth is that with some ‘dog
walkers’, the last thing they would want is for you to see exactly how little
they actually do. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US"><br /></span>
<span lang="EN-US">I know from what I see at my local Oval there
are a significant number of walkers who are not worthy of the name. And these people </span>would hate you to find out that although you're paying for an hour your dog is lucky if it gets 30 minutes - and a lot of that spent in one place. Could your
walker be one of these? How do you know what they’re up to if they give you
nothing but the bill?</span></div>

some of these people who simply see your dog as $.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Professional Dog Walkers stick to the legal
maximum – 4 dogs to one person. But the Scammer regularly exceeds the legal
maximum number of dogs: it is common to see 5 dogs per person – but some bring
6 and even 7. With so many the ‘walker’ cannot possibly keep a proper watch on
each one so your dog gets left to it’s own devices for long periods.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Walkers who don’t care about breaking the
law by taking too many dogs are the self same ones who ‘accidentally miss’ or
‘happen not to see’ poos dogs in their group are doing. Stray excrement is left
for other people to clear up - not something I
enjoy doing but it cannot be left.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">You booked and are paying for say, an
hour, and believe your dog is going to get a full 60 mins exercise, right?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>WRONG - with some of these jokers you’ll be
lucky your dog gets 30<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>minutes. How do I
know? Because during my hour walks my dogs and I move the whole time (as you
will see by some of my maps attached).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But
after I’ve been walking a time I frequently see the Scammer Walkers arriving
(often with too many dogs). When I am still there walking to continue my hour,
I see these same groups leaving. They arrive after me and leave when I am still
there completing my hour -<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>their time
there? <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>30-35mins on average.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US">This one infuriates me above
all – even while having your dog out half the time they are supposed to - your dog may not even benefit from that short time. Why? Because Scammer Walkers meet up with their mates – there
might be two or three ‘walkers’ supposedly watching 5 to 7 dogs </span>each. But I see them standing on
the spot - not doing any WALKING - but doing plenty of TALKING.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Occasionally a ball is given a cursory
throw. But some of the dogs are on leads and going nowhere. The others that are
loose are not being watched and often get into scrapes, or even fights, because
they are not doing what they want – which is to move with their pack. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

of dogs, and they do the ‘Walkie Talkie’ (that is, keep moving with their dogs and
not simply stand around) and they genuinely care for their Clients' dogs.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

Also pictured Freya (Lab X Boxer) playing with Toffee (RR). Jake and Benny Border Collies. Also pictures of Elly my daughter's Boxer playing with Hunter at Bay View. No wonder the dogs I care for round the clock miss me when I go!</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">‘What breed will fit with our lifestyle?’ Perfect
Pet Sitter believes this is a key question everyone should ask themselves
before taking on the responsibility of a dog. Here are some really helpful pointers to answer this vital question.</span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Extensive information is available on line
about each of the 7 Groups where you will find descriptions of look, size, personality and traits of every breed.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As well as being highly informative, you discover
surprising facts. For example, wouldn’t you think Border Collies would be classified as working dogs? In fact they are in the Pastoral dog Group where
you find many cattle/herding dogs – but also, and looking out of place, Corgis. However, they were herding dogs centuries ago.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Once you’ve looked at the Groups, a key
next step is to take an honest and objective look at your circumstances. Doing
this can make the difference between making a great match – or doggie disaster.

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Size is a very obvious first factor to keep
in mind as we are often drawn by the size of a dog. Some large breeds are ‘all
show and no go’ such as Great Danes who, whilst big, don’t need masses of
exercise. But others are big AND strong AND active<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>(such as Rhodesian Ridgebacks, Weimaraners and
Pointers.) Keep in mind big dogs (especially when pups) can be clumsy. As such they might not ideal
for a family with small children who can get bowled over.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">As a potential owner it's helpful to keep in mind your age and physical limits when taking on a big dog. As we age and so does our big dog, will we be able to lift them to help them in and out of the car if needed? </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US">Most dogs
need to be taken out daily – ideally for an hour. In some cases some breeds
would be happier with more than that. (In my previous blog I compared two
highly active dogs – one from the Gun Dog Group (a Pointer) with a dog from the
Pastoral Group [a Border Collie]<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>*You
can view that blog <a href="http://perfectpetsitter.blogspot.com.au/2015/05/battle-of-breeds-which-is-best-dog.html" target="_blank">here</a>). Be honest - do you have not just the energy,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>but the willingness to devote the time needed to exercise </span>if it's an active breed you’re considering? Will you take them out every day? If that's not realistic then fine, but look for a breed that will not be stressed if it misses a walk
occasionally and/or doesn’t need long walks.</span><br />

<b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Environmental match:</span></b><br />
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Your dog’s environment is vital. A home
with small children means you need a dog that can cope with rough and tumble
and never retaliate. So a very small dog could get hurt by children who sometimes don’t realise their strength. Equally,
as mentioned earlier, big dogs are sometimes clumsy and can unintentionally knock
children off their feet.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">And what about your home? Dogs need
somewhere sheltered from heat, sun, rain and cold – and they need to be safe.
If you have to work, where will your dog be housed during the day? If indoors
will it have access to the outside? If outside is it going to bother your
neighbours barking because it’s bored? Most of all, can you truly give a dog
the life it deserves? <o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span lang="EN-US">On the left is a cracking cross - Freya. She is half boxer and half Labrador and her nature is a wonderful mixture of both breeds.

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Every dog needs a place in the home where
it can retreat and know it will be left in peace. It’s own bed in, ideally in a
corner, where it can be quiet and relax and know it will not be disturbed. This
is a key factor in a dog’s mental welfare. If children are new to dogs they need to
know when the family puppy (or adult dog) goes to their bed, they should not be
disturbed.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Being the Perfect Pet Sitter, providing a premium pet minding service for dogs in their own homes, plus with practical experience of many different breeds, people have asked me what I think is the best dog. But the question is not what’s the best dog, but which breed of dog will work best with you, your family and lifestyle.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Most people tend to start with a preference for size and the look of a dog such as the following. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-jhdplbz-aO8/V8q_YMtM4rI/AAAAAAAABx0/OS4n5Rk17Dkw8vDvr0asXcz06J9hR8NlwCLcB/s1600/P1000924.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-jhdplbz-aO8/V8q_YMtM4rI/AAAAAAAABx0/OS4n5Rk17Dkw8vDvr0asXcz06J9hR8NlwCLcB/s320/P1000924.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I was walking Border Collies Jake & Benny when a man jogging past stopped to talk. He said he’d owned a Border Collie in the past, and his family were now considering either a Border, or a possibly a Pointer (but he’d had no experience of Gun Dogs). By default he was choosing between two of the main 7 dog Groups Gun Dog Group vrs Pastoral Group </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">In the UK I owned a pair of GSPs (Gun dog Group) and between my pet sitting bookings in Sydney I live with Border Collies Jake & Benny (Pastoral dog Group). With first hand experience of both breeds I’ve noticed both GSPs and Borders have traits in common. Example, unlike similar sized breeds such as Labradors or Golden Retrievers, they’re one person/family dogs, and rarely interested in people outside their immediate circle. A plus or minus? Depends on what you’re looking for.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Both breeds share have a strong need for exercise – at the very least an hour daily. In which case a home where someone jogs or runs is perfect - the right kind of exercise and great company for the runner, so a win win.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Let Battle Commence!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Gun Dog Group</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I found my German Shorthaired Pointers to be superb family dogs - wonderfully athletic, heaps of fun, and very good with children. However, knowing my own (and other) GSPs, they do vary in intelligence. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Our first rescue GSP was Flash age 2. He was a lovely dog, but to be frank, he was not terribly bright – and he arrived obsessed with tennis balls (balls are like drugs to Pointers). Our second GSP rescue, Harry, joined us some years later. Harry was another story completely, exceptionally smart - and became my dog of a lifetime. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Intelligence aside, exercise means the world to GSPs. But crucially after a good run back home Pointers settle down and sleep – a big plus.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Pastoral dog Group</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">My experience with Border Collies Jake & Benny (and others we’ve provided with 24/7 care) has impressed me. They are super smart and loyal dogs and don’t stray. When you’re out no need to keep calling them, they’re always watching and keeping track of where you are. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-lBKNO7V381c/V8q_YOJqj4I/AAAAAAAABx4/f9iDFS3dYFg3aBSa2TWEGM_yYmxBtue5gCEw/s1600/P1010033.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-lBKNO7V381c/V8q_YOJqj4I/AAAAAAAABx4/f9iDFS3dYFg3aBSa2TWEGM_yYmxBtue5gCEw/s320/P1010033.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">There are, however, practical issues with Border Collies. Australian summers and the heat makes life tough in those thick coats (and ticks hard to find). Regular brushing is vital to avoid matting. Clipping through summer and professional grooming all year round is also highly recommended. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Coat differences aside, the biggest thing about Border Collies is that they were bred as working dogs. Their stamina is legendary and they could easily run 25-35 Ks a day when herding sheep or cattle. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Both breeds are highly active and not necessarily well suited to life in the suburbs. But of the two, Borders have an insatiable appetite for exercise. Not only that, they are so smart means they need to be challenged. If you are even considering a Border Collie, here are 3 questions to ask: </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Would you be prepared to stimulate your Border by Agility, Fly ball or Obedience training? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Are you truly prepared to be a devote at least one hour ideally two – each day for their exercise sessions? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Do you have acres of land where a Border could roam? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">So - who wins the battle of these breeds – Border or Pointer? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">If you can honestly answer ‘Yes’ to at least one of the above then a Border can be a great pet. Otherwise (and particularly if you have young children) I’d strongly recommend a Pointer of some kind – GSP, Wire Haired, English Pointer. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">My next blog will expand on how to find the best breed match for you, your family and lifestyle in more depth. We’ll look at how to make an objective assessment by using Perfect Pet Sitter’s 3 step check and investigate the 7 major Dog Groups. </span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Perfect Pet Sitter cares for every type of
dog - and I love it when we meet smaller
breeds that have been integrated into a world where they’re going to meet many
different – and often much bigger - dogs.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">It’s true small dogs can be vulnerable and

protecting and pampering. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">When owners interventions go to extremes –
such as picking dogs up the moment another canine appears, <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>or crossing roads to avoid other dogs – this
can result in little dogs becoming fearful, anxious, and end up developing all

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Recently I’ve been living in looking after
two delightful little girls, Cavoodles Milly and Chloe. Looking for all the
world like furry novelty slippers, these tiny girls are up there with the
cutest small dogs I’ve had the pleasure of caring for.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But what is extra special about these two, is
they are don’t know they’re little!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Naturally when taking any of my smaller
canine charges I'm highly aware of bigger dogs and avoid ones I don’t like the
look of (or ask owners to keep a distance). But other than that, being able to
take dogs to places where they can greet and sniff others is positive, it’s
what dogs are born to do.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">So Lisa & Mark – congratulations. You
have encouraged your sweet little dogs to be dogs and not to be fearful of
doggie encounteres. You deserve an award for knowing that you have full size
dogs – they just happen to be in very small bodies!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Leo is one of Perfect Pet Sitters most
regular clients.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Since he was just 19
weeks old we’ve minded him numerous occasions, for anything from a few days, to
weeks at a time. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">From the moment she brought him home, Leo’s
owner was determined he would be well trained.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Although still a puppy, he’s so good to recall that on our daily walks
(within safe areas) he can be off leash to enjoy running free and playing -
until we go home with him happy and tired.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

same standard as industrial equipment. This means the
meat will almost certainly still contain a small level of moisture so the treats won't keep indefinitely. Even so, you can expect them to last in your
car or bag for 6-8 weeks. Although no chance they will last that long – the dogs love them too
much!</span></div>

be played with by bringing an endless stream of toys and balls and dropping
them at her feet. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">But let’s change the situation. Let’s imagine
a toddler who constantly threw tantrums. Do you blame the child? Most people
would say it is the fault of the parents for not instilling acceptable
behaviours. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">So it is with our dogs. It is pointless
blaming the animal for simply being frustrated, confused, and having not other
ways to express their lack of stimulation – physical and mental – other than
through destructive or OCD behaviours.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">It turned out Trudy was getting almost no
exercise linked to the fact on walks she was a nightmare – pulling on the lead,
lunging at other dogs and attacking the fences of those in their gardens and so
on. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Here was precisely the situation I
blogged about last time.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In this case we
have a GSD, a terrific and intelligent breed but that can tend towards being highly
strung, hardly even walking and no free runnng – so nothing like adequate
exercise. A recipe for disaster.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">It was when Sue volunteered she had
engaged the services of THREE different trainers but ‘none of them had worked’,
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>that alarm bells rang. Three training
approaches immediately said more about Sue’s lack of determination to follow
through with what needed to be done rather than 100% of advice being wrong. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">My sense was Sue expected each trainer
would have a magic bullet to turn Trudy around. Training dogs is
straightforward when started young and done right. But with a 5 year old dog
now with ingrained habits, rehabilitation was going to take time.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

I had to give it a go. Maybe this time she would act and have the necessary
stickability to help Trudy become a happy and balanced fur pal….<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Trudy settled to such an extent we were able to have a conversation with her on
her bed and not barking!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">As a dog trainer, professional pet minder and sitter, I meet every size and type of dog. What is fascinating is not only how different dogs can be physically, but how their personalities and traits can be poles apart. When a Perfect Pet Sitter comes to stay 'your dog is our job' and we are with them round the clock. With our unique guarantee no dog is left alone all day when we stay. But lots of dogs are not so fortunate to have exercise AND company in their daily lives - and I wanted to focus on this today.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Imagine if you were locked in your home. But
with no, visitors, no one to talk to, no exercise, no tv, no computer or phone,
no books or magazines, no shopping, no driving the car -NOTHING - just four
walls. But of course that never happens because we are blessed with the ability
to choose what we do.</span></div>

and read the doggie newspapers – sniffing to you and me – is torture for pack

rare, but lack of outside stimulation and too little exercise are the biggest

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Even a dog fortunate enough to get a full
hours exercise a day is often still locked in for the remaining 23 hours. Put
that way you start to realise just how vital that one hour a day is to a dog
and why they are so happy when they hear ‘walkies!’<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">But the question is, why do people who
actively want to have a dog in their family neglect their dog’s exercise needs?
A common reason is a dog that is difficult on the lead. Owners dreamt of a well

coffee. Instead they can end up with any/or a combination of:<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

needed, a trainer will be able to point the way ahead. However, trainers do not
possess magic wands and cannot, for example, turn a pulling dog to a perfect

going to the gym once will not get them slim overnight either. It can take many
months to lose weight with a regime of exercise plus eating the right foods. In
the same way, being prepared to put time in to get a dog to understand what is
expected of him/her is crucial. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
