Hope everythings going ok for you all

Just a thought maybe the small patterdale triggered his prey drive and thats why he grabbed him. My two patterdale bitch and lurcher are always doing what I call the 'Rabbit' run. Patterdale girl runs around darting left and right just like a rabbit and my lurcher chases her they then reverse roles. It is hysterical watching them they dont hurt each other as I would stop this instantly if I thought it would lead to an injury. It is just a game they play together which I think is the pair of them training each other to hunt (dont shoot me down I definately dont allow them to hunt) it is just instinct. Also dogs police each other and that is why the GSD jumped in when he thought his friend was being hurt. Usually no damage is done with this as you found. My lurcher will also jump in if he thinks my patterdale is being bullied by another dog.

Brilliant

Every time I log in here I end up in tears of laughter. WHat a tonic you all are.

Thankyou littlegreensquirrel for this thead. I have been thinking for many years about the horrendous way we all just put our sanitary ware down the toilet. I could never understand why there were no incinerators anywhere. Years ago my father used to take all the sanitary ware to his allotment and burn them. He would never for one moment have allowed us to put them down the loo. I have always felt incredibly guilty that during my adult life I have not been in a situation that allowed me to do this. I stumbled across this website about mooncups whilst trying to find alternative methods and wish I had know about these years ago as I am now on the cusp of 'The change'. Whilst it may be too late for me to make a change I will try to encourage others to use them. As for cleaning them could they be submerged in something like a babys bottle sterilising solution or even denture cleaning tablets? just a thought.

Fozie bear too
