How to train your dog with a dead lamb - a very sad story

I've just come back from walking Buddy, and I'd like five minutes of
your time to get something off my chest.  Buddy is a wonderful
companion, and although I am sure he would be as outraged as I am if he

energetic dog and a man who petted him a little on his morning walk. I
am left to fume alone - but feel free to join me.

Downton Abbey and depressed dogs home alone

I spotted two headlines in newspapers this week that made me stop and think. The first was a piece saying that a new documentary, Home Alone Dogs, has revealed that one in four of Britain's eight million dogs are depressed due to being left alone at home for several hours while their owners are out at work.
