Hi, My name's Dot and I have an American Cocker spaniel called Barney. He's 10 months old. We've had a million problems with him, and almost rehomed him, but I'm so glad we didn't.

Welcome to the forum Dot, hope you enjoy it here. I'm Toni with 4 rescue cats aged between 4 & 14, although I was brought up with dogs. That's one of the nice things about this forum is that it doesn't matter what pet you have you can join in or at least read & learn about ones you have no knowledge of, if you want to

Hi Dot there is a section in the general part of the forum called Help Thread, that has some FAQs that might help. Click on this for the index. There are supposed to be 2 ways to upload photos, but unfortunately the one that loads them directly from your computer needs to store them on the forum & the space for those is full so it can't be used. The other option is to use a service like photobucket or flickr to host the photos. The details are in the FAQs Hope the info helps but if it's still a problem don't hesitate to ask as any improvements we can make to the help/FAQ info is always useful.

Hi again, I thought I would tell you a little about Barney , and explain why he's been a problem. I now realise that he was very badly bred. I was not allowed to see the mother, he had not has any eye tests, he had obviously been left on his own a great deal. I feel that I " rescued" him more than anything. He's had 3 operations for Cherry Eye, and at 11 months old is still not house trained, although I've tried so hard. The thing that worries me most, is that this breeder is still advertising puppies, and there seems to be no way of reporting her, on the " Pets4homes" site. I must add that we love him very much!!
