For us oldies do you remember as a child the family dog getting butchers bones to chew and eat there were no anal gland problems in those days ,do you remember white poo ( from eating Bones ) this ensured glads were cleaned the natural way.
There was only the PDSA vet a bus ride away I remember as a young kid taking the cat to be nuetered had to go on the bus to the vets I must have been about ten I was safe to travel not like these days where things have changed so much our Dog was a heinz 57 he lived to 17 years so was in my life all those years I was 17 when he died he got run over in the end he was a latch key dog followed me to school and would be waiting outside when I was coming home .
A whole different word then xx

Maisie and Annie had butcher's bones every week on a Saturday and absolutely loved them.

Re: Doggy topic
My parents' first Labrador was a big dog who pulled like a train! He and I grew up together and I used to take him for walks on my own on occasion - aged about 7! He never pulled on the lead with me and I was quite safe, he was very protective. Great times and a lovely dog.
