I feel like the second time is your fault for leaving it in a puppy accessible location

I suspect that - when Mrs mik gets home - this conclusion shall be reinforced

One is chewed at the to and the other at the bottom - cut n shut them together.

Unfortunately she has consumed surface-mount componentry from both circuit boards. I could get some wire out I guess

Been there, done that- I walked in our living room once to find a dog at either end of the remote, using it as a tug toy

Enough to use her as a remote?
It doesn't matter if you get a new one, she'll consider it hers now. You'll have to get her a new toy to distract her (likewise for the puppy).

Pat tummy for volume up, boop on the snoot for volume down?

Nah, finger up the arse and wiggle like a joystick

that's a bugger Mik!

Bit of an overdue update on our Freddie as he's 13 weeks today! So far, so good. An angel sometimes, but also a naughty herding land shark at others. Travels superbly (3.5 hours up to Keswick & back without needing to stop), no sickness whatsoever. Wasn't fully vaxxed for hols (had jabs but didn't wait the x weeks afterwards) but we took the decision to risk it as he needed to burn the energy. He's a bit too clever really as he has already mastered all the tricks we can do with him at home - he'll even 'leave' a piece of cheese or bacon indefinitely - so it's puppy classes next. Growing very fast, he's changed massively in 5 weeks.

Hard work at times but it's not for long once the groundwork is in (hopefully).

He is coming along lovely

Hutch has elbow displasia, he had a CT scan for a limp and he will need a piece of broken bone in his elbow removed, the poor bugger. Due to his size I think I will be doing a lot of swimming with him till he is fully developed to burn the energy he has. He loves nothing more than standing on his back legs and getting a hug so we are trying to stop that. He is a lanky sod and trying to contain him isn’t the easiest job.
Cooper is doing great, I will do my big walks with him and get him used to saddle bags soon, he can carry his own stuff when he is a year old but nothing heavy.



A nice way to be greeted every time I come home.

Dave!

Can see him practicing mind control on you in the last pic

Dave!

Best wishes for a good recovery, Hutch, and here's hoping you don't do yourself a mischief restraining a playful pup.

V. nice way to be greeted home

None of mine, but thought this was the best location for this.

Watch to the end.

Love the one at the end. The face says it all

That's awesome

Alfie has developed some quite nasty food allergies- he comes out in some horrendous rashes that smell and itch him horribly. They clear up by feeding him grain free but the cost over standard food is difficult to swallow, and he doesn’t seem to like it much.

So I’m looking for a bit of advice……

I seem to remember a few of you guys feed yours on a natural raw diet- what does this entail and would it be cheaper than grain free food?

Mrs mik raw-fed ours for a while - I don’t recall it being a cheaper option.

@V8Granite is the man to ask.
