    Body shake

    I have a question about body shakes. I don't mean shivering but normal dog shakes. Castor has always done these body shakes a couple of times a day. I guess it's some kind of replacement activity, and we refer to them as 'rebooting' because he typically does them when we want him to do something...

    Update on new boy Buster

    This has been a bit of an eye-opener for us! Don't get me wrong, we love him to bits and are so thrilled to have him but he is NOT even remotely like Monty! Monty was so laid back and easy going. This boy has his quirks and is so stubborn. If he doesn't want to go outside, he won't, even if...
