Hi every few days I find a new dog poop on my lawn. I'm guessing that someone in the neighbourhood takes their dog for a walk in the early morning, and the dog relieves itself as necessary... But is there any sort of "dog repellent" I can use to prevent this from happening? I don't really want...

My young dog will insist on hunting for carrion when out on walks. I wouldn't mind so much if he just gobbled it down but whilst he's trying to do this, he's also not listening to me at all. Sometimes this is just a minor nuisance but other times it's a major pain in the arse if I have to get...

We've taken on a 8 month old rescue dog, a lively border collie. He's settling down well and is a super dog but clearly he'd never lived with a cat before. He's doing his best to rid our house of this "indoor squirrel". Although I'm really a "dog person" I have to acknowledge that the cat has...
