Sorry its taken an almost unforgivable amount of time to answer these vital questions Hayley.

"I did ask the question re his Nuts to be polite, when they could be done and she said 6 months, so Katie could you please advise if you think this should be correct?"

No, I disagree with this Hayley. I think a dog is ready for castration when he has been confidently cocking his leg for about a month. Some dogs, like Jack Russells, are ready at about 6 months - but larger breeds notoriously take longer to mature and I would think 11 months is closer to the mark.

Girls should be spayed RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE of their seasons. So you can't spay at 6 months - before they've even had one... How do you know she's not about to come in? And you can't spay 3 months after the 1st season either - how do you know she's going to cycle regularly? (just look at Hermione...) But if you wait until her second season you should be able to guesstimate what is correct for YOUR bitch and spay between the second and third season.

"Also BIG thing, Mum has Cody when we are at work and the other day he had a chick wing and it got dislodged in his throat, mum said that he was making the utmost terrible noises and he was going crazy just like herself.. In the end she put her fingers down his throat and he brought up what had gone down..."

Your mum did exactly the right thing here. He's most likely learned his lesson from the panic of getting a wing stuck (which is actually far more unusual than one might imagine). You could continue to grind up the bones, but I think you'll find he'll be more cautious now anyway. I don't feed bones unsupervised at any time just to be on the safe side - but none of mine have ever had this happen to them.

Can we have some more puppy pics from EVERYBODY please?

I'm doing a walk on Sunday 30th if anyone wants to join me?
