I love discovering new products that my dogs might enjoy
, so when I came across Stagbars I was intrigued. Stagbars are stag antlers that are made into dog chews - obviously you don't give your dog the whole antler, they are cut into size appropriate chunks and sold by weight. Stags grow new antlers every season, and shed their old ones, so this is a very environmentally friendly business, which uses basically a waste product and turns it to good use. Sounds good so far, the only question left was would my dogs be as enthusiastic as I was?
Dog law delays are unacceptable claim RSPCA

Battersea Dogs & Cats Home hopes its dog and cat fostering scheme can transform Christmas for those due to spend the festive season alone.
The charity is looking to recruit new dog and cat foster carers, who can take animals into their home and care for them while they recover from operations, or to give them a break from kennel or cattery life.

In the course of my job interviewing and writing about (mainly) dog folk, I come into contact with some lovely people. I've just discovered Critter Studio, who are not only lovely people, but they take some gorgeous shots of a variety of animals, notably dogs. Critter Studio took the smashing shot of PJ Houghton with her two German Shepherds and her Papillon which accompanies my latest article in UK magazine, Dogs Monthly.
