"Great leash!"
The clip handle is so convenient for tying
up our dog anywhere and everywhere with
great ease. Good length lead. Fairly sturdy,
though not if you let your dog chew their
lead. Our cavoodle chewed through one in
3 years, but we still bought the same one
again to replace it because we like the
design so much."

Unfortunately pets can not tell us when something
hurts or when they are in pain. So how are we meant
to know when our pets are in pain? There are some
signs that you can look for that your pet may be
in pain by watching and understanding their
behaviour, including:
¦ Excessive grooming, licking, scratching or biting -
continual and excessively doing this for no obvious
reason and/or concentrating on a specific area.
¦ Loss of Appetite - going off food or not eating
as much.
¦ Vocalisation - unusual vocalisation such as whining,
whimpering or crying, grunting, howling or yelping.
¦ Toileting changes - ie urinating less or more,
pain or straining when toileting.
¦ Stomach upset - vomiting and/or diarrhoea.
¦ Limping - lameness, limping or favouring a
particular limb during any movement.
¦ Aggression - uncharacteristic aggression such as
growling, hissing, biting or scratching.
¦ Changes in activity levels or movement -
ie avoiding an activity or reluctance to move.
¦ Shyness - hiding from people and other pets and
avoiding socialisation.
¦ Heavy panting - unexplained heavy panting,
ie not hot, over exerted or in a stressful situation.
If you notice any of these signs or behavioural changes
in your pet please consult your vet as soon as possible.
