Here are a few I have done so far, if anyone is interested...

Hi every one, I was just wondering if you could help me with some research I am doing. The KC in the UK are currently allowing the multiple registration of pedigree puppies from the same bitch in less than twelve months (at every season). The maximum registrations they will allow is four...

As Nicky is sharing her pregnancy story, I thought I would also share my poor Connie's recent pseudo pregnancy. She had her first season exactly nine weeks ago and her mammary glands started to swell approx. three weeks ago. She has shown all the outward signs of pregnancy, but believe me she is...

I was just wondering if anyone can tell me their experiences of PRA Cord 1 and Laforas in other countries. We have both in our dachshund population in the UK and it is something most reputable breeders are working hard to eradicate. We are able to test for the PRA Cord 1 via an animal Health...

This is the promise I make to my dogs......................

Both of my dogs were inoculated against Kennel Cough about eight months ago and now they both have it! Its definitely Kennel Cough (I have seen and heard it before), has anyone else experienced this after inoculations? I am wondering if it is a new strain? They are both OK, feeling a...

Connie has now attended her second agility lesson and things are going surprisingly well! She absolutely loves the tunnel but getting her to wait at one end till I get to the other is proving a bit of a challenge, her enthusiasm is a slight disadvantage at times! The ramps she has taken to...

Winter is coming.....yuk! and I would love to know if anyone has found any good websites for dachshund coats.......... If you have a good knitting pattern for a jumper as well please share :)

Has anyone ever tried refilling the bowl over and over again until their dachshund stopped eating? lol. My six month old constantly scavenges for food. Believe me she is very, very well fed, but we only have to leave the house and the pavements are licked clean! Chewing gum, fag butts you...

I have just watched a documentary about the lives of dogs and evidently if your dog is right handed (you can tell whether your dog is right or left handed by the leg they lead with when they go from sitting to walking) and the swirls in their coat go anticlockwise they are more likely to be calm...

I just had to share this as it is just so true, dogs have the most forgiving of souls and we can all learn so much from them.

I have recently been studying the colour genetics for dachshunds and I am hoping someone can help me with a question. My pup is a red dapple girl, if I was to breed her to a clear red stud would the pups be 50% red dapple and 50% clear red? Also how would you know which are which, when my...

Does anyone have any good tips for a dog that is petrified of thunder storms? My 2 1/2 yr old dachshund cross hates thunderstorms. If he hears a loud clap of thunder he associates it with where he is at the time. He was once on a chair in my office and there was a loud bang and he wouldn't...

Now that's what I call glamour!
