It is rare to get repeat winners - particularly in my club with so many good fliers - but one member in particular has birds scoring year after year flying widowhood - indeed he has 3 and 4 year olds still winning - Whereas we get the odd one multiple scoring - but only in one year - and so far never in more than one year What is your experience - any tips - we fly roundabout - and have had no success flying widowhood cocks only
one thing that is a worry is that my little dog picked this up from my own garden - not out on a walk Anything I can treat the garden with - or is that being a bit paranoid
In the past I have had a problem with dehydration - and because of high potassium - given a hospital recipe for electrolytes 1 teaspoon sodium chloride (common salt)1/2 teaspoon sodium bicarbonate and 6 (yes 6) teaspoons of glucose - all made up to a litre I can honestly say its the most disgusting thing I've ever drunk!! Even mixing with cordials - its revolting!!
It was a young tick and hadn't started blood sucking (I had a look on the internet and it said they start sucking blood about 24 hours after attaching themselves) Poppy has to go back for her vaccination booster - they couldn't fit her in with a vet appointment only a nurse appointment - but because of the close proximity to her eye - the nurse took the dog to the vet to remove the tick - All's well that ends well
Me thinks I was lucky - only got charged for the flea and tick treatment, no charge for the removal of the tick - and I got to keep the tick removal tool!! (paid £6.02) It could have been a lot worse!!!
I'd say stuck to flesh Andy - it doesn't budge at all This is my first dog - she weighs 4kg - so is quite small - that under her eye looks just like a sesame seed - similar shape and size Her annual vaccination is due (I've had a text) so will make an appointment and get it looked at when she has her vaccination (tomorrow if poss) She's a lap dog - cuddles every day (several times a day) and I would have noticed it if it had been there before today
Just under my dogs eye - only noticed this today - could it be a tick (or something else?) is it a vet job to be on the safe side? Is it urgent? click to enlarge

Up North Combine - Eastbourne Friday basket for a Sunday Liberation NEHU Classic race 7 transporters full in the Up North Combine ( plus WDA DC & NNA ) so over 25000 birds I would think for the UNC Contingents
