  1. I have one but never hook the front bits to the front seats.  My girl just sits in the back (on this cover ) with her harness clipped to the seat belt .  I was thinking that the uncertainty of the loose base would cause the dog to be more stressed if it tried standing up.  You know what dogs are like if they are uncertain of the ground.

  2. You need to look for a reputable Husky breeder.   The ads in local paper and Gumtree or Preloved are usually puppy farmed in atrocious conditions or back yard breeders (BYB's), people who meet each other on the street with the remark 'You wanna breed it mate?'  with no proper health history for the pups like hip scoring etc.

    There is some lower form of registration, which I cant just recall - its not Kennel Club, which people refer to when they say 'Theve got papers'  I'm sure someone with fill this detail in for me.

  3. I have read a dozen reports of this, and I agree, it doesn't add up at the moment.    The latest update says there will be more information at the end of the week, when the post mortem will take place.  However I read that the parents have been released but were originally detained on manslaughter charges.  This is standard procedure though I think.  It sounds like the dog must be a husky/mal cross, because there was a mention of blue eyes somewhere and its extremely rare to get a Mal with blue eyes.

    The part that worried me was that the chap bought the dog in a pub 'because the people didn't want it'.  Does that suggest it was a problem dog ? - yet neighbours say it was quite docile.

    Still, a terrible tragedy.  Also, as mentioned, our breed is going to come under scrutiny again.

  4. I did the same thing.   My girl had escaped from the back garden into woodlands behind.  I thought I had lost her; I was running up and down through

    the woods calling with no luck then when I thought I was going to have a heart attack she just came trotting down a path.  I must have passed her several times when she was engrossed in the shrubbery.

    I fixed the gap in the fence she had made, then a couple of days later I put her out in the garden.  About  10 minutes later someone knocked at the door and I was there for about another 5 mins. I went back out in the garden - and she was gone. I panicked again and was running round demented calling her name. I turned round to run in to get a lead and phone and there she was lying in her crate.  I swear she was laughing at me !

  5. Well how about put this to your other half  --   If you were a dubious character lurking in a park at night, would you approach a group of people with about 10 huskys straining at the lead !   lol    Anyway, the walk is not in the park itself, its the roads around , we go down from the Church, cross over Croxteth Hall Lane, past the farm and then pass the riding school and onto the back trail, come round by conker Lane and back on to the road towards Croxteth Hall Lane.  We usually see the Park Rangers van at least once on the walk.  They patrol the roads at night.

  6. Virgin is unbeatable for consistant high speed.  It always has been.   They started it all on the fibre optic cable.   Sky and BT  now try and make out that 'High speed fibre is here'

    It always has been here with cable !!    I am on 60 mb speed and get 62 constantly.   I take no notice of 'customer service better than so and so'  like Baulk Baulk claim.  If you have a rubbish product to start with - well enough said about them. 

  7. I've never heard of that, how do they work?

    I've seem some gps trackers for the collar, but it was about £200 if I remember correctly, I can't afford that lol
