Re: Dead chickens...ferrets??

Re: Steiffs
I have a beloved Steiff pony called Mary. She belonged to my uncle who came here from Hungary as a boy in the war. He gave her to me when I was small and she went everywhere with me. She's in a bit of a state, the leather on her hooves has worn away revealing the straw stuffing. I've often wondered ...

Re: Query about dog food
Eddie isn't keen on eating dry food on it's own. We always mix in a forkfull of tinned meat in gravy to moisten it and we add some chopped veg too (raw carrot, green beans etc)
