Here is our new addition, love him to bits.
He sleeps most of the day with the odd 3 minute burst of energy.
Is that Glasgowrob's dog you've borrowed and painted a couple of white bits on him? He sleeps most of the day with the odd 3 minute burst of energy.

Btw sorry for the pic hijack yesterday - I couldn't resist when that opportunity presented itself . I'm sure you probably didn't find it anywhere near as amusing as I did though .

She is a very beautiful girl. Lovely colour
Thanks. She is gnawing at her rear feet a lot, like proper going hammer and tongs at trying to pull her toe nails out or chew her pads off. Not experienced this before with previous dog. Should I be concerned? I've inspected them and don't see any blood or anything but I'm worried if she carries on like that she's going to make them bleed. She'll stop for a while if I say no enough times but then starts up again.moorx said:
Difficult to say. It could be some sort of irritant that's making her paws itchy, or might just be a nervous/habit thing. Our whippets bite their feet a lot but I think it's mostly habit.
Just keep an eye on it and try to stop her when you can.
As above, or it's a remnant of boredom from where she was previously. Perhaps try her with one of those gnaw toys as a replacement.Just keep an eye on it and try to stop her when you can.
