MOBY GOES TO TURKEY. A tam and pups adventure.

[reckless]

Our current dog is the only one I've ever known who comes running when she hears the foil wrapper of the tablet. She thinks it's a treat, doesn't touch the sides!

 

[Yamas]

Yeah tried that lol the bugger worked it out the cheese ate the cheese and spat out the tablet. I crushed it in her food in the end .

Cream cheese Tam works everytime

 

[Phill D]

We use Nextgard for flea and tick treatment as well as worms, vet said its a nice tasty treat for them. No its not its a game to find out where I've hid it and spit it out, tries cheese, sausage roast beef he still finds it. Don't bother now just hold top jaw and push his lips in so he won't close his mouth then throw it down the back of his tongue, same with worming tablet when coming home from over there.

Yes we use NexGard Spectra he takes it like a treat, but it’s relatively expensive as it needs a prescription.
We can’t use any sort of spot on treatment his coat is too thick.

All other forms of medication he treates as if they were poison

This little madam has fairly come to life in the last 24 hours , full of beans and mischief, constantly trying to chew things including me,

Ha ha, told you so, no decent food made her quiet and slow-no energy, now, whizz-bang!

We get a prescription from vet then buy online for about £20-£25 rather than the £50+ vet wants.

I tried the placing it at the back of the tongue holding mouth shut and rubbing the throat to make her swallow ...it still got shoved out the gap in her teeth lol. She's a smart wee bugger.

 

[Phill D]

We do same but our vet now will only issue a prescription for max 6 months and a consultation is required before a prescription is issued.
It’s a rip off but still cheaper

Yep it seems that way. She makes me laugh but I have to curb the naughty behaviour before she wraps me round her paw

We are now at thermoply .... its blazing sunshine again today and 18°

The water however is 40° so I'm off for a bath

Thats the one with the disused spar hotel and big wild area next door that makes a good park up, I remember it well.

You are going to stink of sulfur.

More money wasted on students who don't want to get a real job lol. What a piece of nonsense. Wagging tails to the left for one reason and the right for another. All my dogs tails wagg every way possible lol ... they wagg them when they meet other dogs too . Not just humans.


I think that's why cats and dogs don't get on , cats wagg when they're annoyed , dogs wagg when happy

That's up the road a bit , I'm just parked alongside the river that runs from the old spa. It's quieter . Water Is lovely though and not as strong smelling as you'd think . I'll go back in later , time now for lunch

Only thing that works for us is crunchy peanut butter he struggles to identify whats peanut and whats tablet so just eats the lot!!
First serving just peanut butter second serving contains tablet never fails!!
I also get a great deal of satisfaction having got one over on the head of the household!

I'm not sure that this thread shouldn't be on the CAMC (aka Provisional wing of the Kennel Club) website as they are obsessed with dogs on there.

 

[Gina M]

I'm amazed there are some on here who don't like this thread. Go away and put it on "ignore" and leave us to our travel and doggy talk. The clue is in the title

 

[Northernraider]

I dunno but I think it's a bit cheeky to follow someone's thread and then complain about the content of that thread. It's not compulsory to read it and I'm pretty sure the majority of people who do follow it actually follow it for the dogs and not for me.

It's something I'd expect from the younger generation not the older one.

So for those not happy with the content can you just go find something else to read then instead of complaining as I've already said I'm not changing what I post to suit the minority. I ain't getting paid for this it isn't a job , a lot of folk enjoy the thread, some just read it and never participate which is perfectly fine . But its bad manners to follow something then complain about it.

 

[Mikey RV]

If you never included pics of the dogs it would not be your thread. The dogs are your family.

I love the travels but enjoy your ever increasing pack even more. It really cheers me up to see you enjoying your travels and settling Blu in. So certainly no ignore from here..

Before we left delphi this morning we had a walk up a hiking trail for a bit , probably only did half of it as the pup gets a bit tired after 30 minutes or so and starts to drag her feet . But some lovely views it's a stunning area around there , very mountainous, I was dreading coming north as I thought it was going to be really cold like the last time but pleasantly surprised.

Got a good view of the old stadium too .

Then as mentioned before we headed off to thermoplye, 1 hour 45 minute drive from delphi. Parked up initially by the thermal spring , had a bathe for about 30 minutes but it was actually too hot lol , bright sunny day then 40° water so I was sweating lol . But it was lovely . Not had a bath In a long time.

We then went for a walk about to see the sparta statues and memorial. This is where the famous 300 battle of thermoplye took place, contrary to what climate experts tell us the sea level has actually dropped since then so the sea is now 9 Miles away and the whole area has changed dramatically

To be honest I'm not surprised the Spartans lost as they never wore any pants , must have been a few incidents of injured tackle .. ladies put your eyes back in .

Then I made use of the free WiFi to upload this post while ela and blu drove me crazy wrestling

I've now moved across the road and parked behind the sparta statues to make full use of the free WiFi. Updating phones and tablet etc . And downloading a few movies to watch ... 300 being one of them as not seen it in a while

Just got back from pm dog walk, it’s kinda chilly out. Nice and dry but the wind while lite is cutting

 

[Northernraider]

21° forecast for here tomorrow and it's usually always a few degrees hotter than it says on forecast. But I'm heading to meteora tomorrow. Probably cooler up there

Those photos of Delphi took me back to a school trip on one of those educational cruises they had in the '60s. I even recognised some of it . We took a coach trip up to Delphi and I remember being terrified on the twisty road with big drops and the local driver who drove like he was on a race track. The return trip to Itea was even worse. First time I had been abroad but despite the driving I was hooked.
Thanks for bringing back the memories with such wonderful photos.

Aye the coaches and the lorry drivers are nuts on these roads . They take no prisoners.
