It’s a vicious circle though, when they are overweight they don’t want to run around. Obesity is life threatening for dogs as well as for […]
A recent report by a Dog Lost organisation is saying that dognapping is back, with reports of stolen dogs going up by a fifth in the last year. Did dognapping ever go away though? We get regular reports of dogs who have suddenly disappeared. It’s a heartbreaking risk for owners of certain types of dogs […]
