    Possession Aggression

    I would like to update my thread on aggression as we have really made some huge strides with Muggsy. We gave him lots of his own toys and took away his crate altogether. His bedroom is now the laundry room and he only has that because he snores so loud! He is calm and well behaved and now...

    Tail Removal

    We took Muggsy to the vets as the previous owner told us he had anal gland issues. It turns out that he has an infection just under the base of his tail, which when the assistant cleaned it, her finger went in all the way up to her Knuckle. It was very badly infected and we are working daily...

    Possession Aggression

    Update on Mugsy. Not a good night last night, he attacked his cage again, and was seriously aggressive when Jon tried to restrain him. It took a while for him to get over it and calm down to where we felt able to approach him and let him out. He was very good for an hour or so then went...

    Meet Muggsy

    that was taken the day we brought him home. His previous owner had just put down the Red Mulch in the yard and I think it stained his feet, they are definately not that colour now, still darker but not red looking.

    Meet Muggsy

    He did start to lick his paws but we put him on a Gluten free food and he seems to be much better. He has cherry eye which comes and goes. We will be getting himto the vet soon for a Check Up.

    Henry Taking a nap

    We rescued Henry a few months ago, from a family who didnt have time to take care of him properly. He was neglected and misstreated. We already had two rescue dogs but couldnt say no to him. It took him just a few days to become part of the family and make himself at home. Uploaded with...
