I have just had a look at her pictures she is lovely! Don't think the black staffy is impressed but the brown one is clearly not bothered at all! (sorry don't know their names) Love her blanket x

Walking down the isle i'm no use because we had registry office, first dance hmm, have you a special romantic tune? x

Well done!

Check the skin isn't broken, as the littlun may need antibiotics if it is, otherwise there is little you can do except let the dog warden know x

He is lovely x

He has been a bit livlier today, still whinging but better. He has gone home with a large breed food, bone builder and cod liver oil. Thankyou all for your help x

this is Dexter

The steps are one into and out of house and I think two or three up to the garden. His lead walks have been in the garden as he hasn't had his second jab yet. When he was here he went in the garden with the other four and was happy pottering about. He doesnt do stair as we dont let dogs upstairs here or at mums. He is between 13 and 17 weeks old. My parents rang this morning to say they were going to phone the vet this morning.

He cries when walking down steps or flopping down or being picked up. The vet manipulated his joints and heard him cry but says he is ok. I mentioned glucosamine and will tell them about green lipped muscle and I have advised they give him a 'large breed' puppy food. He does not run around or climb on the sofa like his sister did whilst she was here. x

Of the two little gsd x pups who arrived here last week one went to rescue today and the other has been adopted by my parents. He is a big boy and has twice seen a vet who pronounces him fit and healthy, but he seems to have joint pain. Is this normal? The vet says his back legs are weak because of the neglect and now he is eating properly it will rectify itself but his sister had none of these symptons, though he is larger. He was 8.3 kilos on last friday and now 8 days later is over ten. Any advice appreciated x

This really scares me because I see a little bit of me in these stories. I can't bear to have my daughter out of my sight. She is 8. I have just stopped walking her to the school bus which picks her up less than 100 yards from my home. I lock doors and windows and never leave her with anyone but a few trusted adults i.e. mum, sister, 2 or 3 very trusted friends. And even then I am anxious. I was like it with my older daughter but less so. The Jamie Bulger murder really did it for me as my daughter was the same age. Then Holly and Jessica's bodies were found the day of my daughters birthday party. I know there are no more child murders but I can't help how I feel. I wouldn't have her microchipped though. She does go to friends, and parties, gym and other sports but I play quite an active role in the clubs. She plays in the cul de sac but she is always in view. I had lots of freedom and I look back and cant believe how much and what I got up to, not trouble but stupid some times x

fabulous news all round! x

Oh Happy Birthday Ladybird, you are beautiful, hope you get lots of pressies! x

She sounds like an angel. She must be very dedicated, we have had two pups here for a week and I am exhausted! Hats of to you yvonne! x

Best wishes for you vet trip Molly moo x

oh Rio, good luck with your op, hope you are soon up and running again. Big hugs to you too x

It was ok , but the aliens were too cute. DT was lovely as always, and CT was better than I expected, just hope next weeks is better. Grandad and the nagging mum were good. I like my aliens a bit scarier, hangover from my childhood. Cybermen scared me, and do you remember the alien from tom baker days that looked like a brown jelly thing. Cool. Tobleronie - unplug the phone hun, works for me!

Sending you love and best wishes for tomorrow, looking forward to hearing you are home safe tomorrow Mal x

They are very well behaved puppys and very clever, they arrived at 1.30 thurs and they both come to their names and sit for a biscuit already!

Oh poor Ollie, feel better soon x

Sending love and healing thoughts, get well soon guys! Big hugs to their family x

She is yummy, bless her x

These two need a ride to south wales asap if anyone can help, but in the meantime here are new pics

It's so hard to make these big decisions, write a list, pros and cons, and good luck! x

How awful, hope it's sorted soon xx
