Bolehill Quarry Allotments - thoughts?
tamarindl replied to bugrain's topic in Allotment & Gardening Group
Just about to take on plot 9, wondered if anyone is still around on the forum from these allotments? -
Do you still have space to share? Interest in growing veggies etc

New Sainsbury's on Barber Road, Crookesmoor/Commonside
tamarindl replied to taxman's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
It was more the location tescos was appling for than it being tescos. That junction is a nightmare already. It is a shame that everything is being turned into a supermarket or charity shop. I can only guess that it's so hard to get financial backing to open an independent business. -
Looking for any Airsofters out there.

I play at C.I.A. woodland in Chesterfield. Newish sight, very friendly and fair marshalling. -

Just rang them and apparently there is ramp access through the delievery gates. Either call as you arrive or someone to ask as the bar and they'll show the way. Once in the pub it's mostly one level. -

Distance or lack of a ramp or similar? -

Hi, I'm setting up a regular informal knitting and crochet meetup group, Tuesday evenings from 7:30 at The Blake pub in Upperthorpe/Walkley. All abilities welcome, pop along. -
We're looking for two boy kittens, grey tabbies preferably but more importantly healthy happy little kitties. If you know of any kittens looking for a loving home please pm me with details.

Please recommend a watch repairer
tamarindl replied to Cyclecar's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
PA Jewellery can get you a quote for pocket watch repairs. It depends on the shape of glass, domed or flat (not round or square etc) -
Anyone suffer with depression?
tamarindl replied to Speed Demon's topic in Disability & Carers Group
Speak to your GP, they will be able to help as there are lots of ways to treat it. They might prescribe drugs if suitable. Counciling can help get to the cause and help you through it. Additionally regular excercise is a great help because it gets good chemicals flowing. I hope you are able to get help and support, you're not alone. -
thanks for the info on the K9bridle. Started her off on a traditional style halti and she just pulled like an ox on it. Believe it or not the best results so far have been with the body harness for general pulling but when another animal is involved it does help her more than me!
-
oops, should have said really. just a bit upset at the moment. 3 year old neutered GSD / Akita cross. Have her in a body harness at all times when on the lead. Have a fabric muzzle. Have a slightly "bungey" short lead as she managed to snap a good quality chain lead before now. She has soo much strength in a bound, this mornings incident was whilst she was being walked on the wall side of a pavement at heel but bounded out into the road at arms length. The only warning is that she focuses intently on the other animal. Tried distracting with commands, love and fuss, treats, shouting NO (all on seperate occasions over the last year) Have tried walking her close, and with slack on the lead. She can walk a dream when people are passing, responsive to commands when on the lead until something four legged appears in sight.
-
Please can someone offer some advice. I have a dog that is very aggressive towards other animals, especially dogs. We can never let her off the lead, always wears a muzzle when out. Have tried behavioral training but is too distracted by other dogs but she is a keen pupil. I'm at the end of my tether, this morning she was almost run over as she spotted another dog on the other side of the road and lunged towards it. Later on the way home went for another dog that had come out of a door unexpectedly with it's owner. She is unpredictable when meeting other animals, sometimes looks positive and has her tail wagging then for no reason will try to attack the other dog. We got her as a rescue 2 years ago and unfortunately despite everything we've tried she seems to be getting worse. Can anyone help or advise what we can do. I don't want to have her put down but I don't want her to hurt another animal either.

Also interested, as I have started knitting. Just about to finish scarf number two. Might see you Monday.

Just had my first tattoo with Di at Dragon Tattoo this morning and she was really good. Nice atmosphere in there, friendly, helpful and patient. Basically everything I was looking for. Will happily recommend to anyone.

Just wanted to add my HUGE thanks to Lottie. Tilly and I had a great time. Still have work to do but thats the nature of doggies, but we both have the building blocks. If anyone needs a reference for your classes point them in my direction would be more than happy to give a glowing report. <hugs> thanks again.

Alternative to Bakers dog food? suggestions please
tamarindl replied to tamarindl's topic in Sheffield Pet Owners
Thank you for your suggestions, Hello Lisa, forgot the name almost as soon as I left the class last week. lol. How long does the sack last you? Don't mind paying a little bit more if it does her right. A Bakers 30kg sack lasts about a month or so. -
Have been given a few different suggestions for more natural alternatives to Bakers Dog food but unfortunately I have the memory span to rival a goldfish. Please could you post your suggestions. Tilly is a GSH/Akita with lots of energy but we're intrigued to find out how much of this is additive induced.

I'm finally doing it! Fun Obedience Classes!

Pet Foods Manufacturers - I didn't know
tamarindl replied to Rainrescue's topic in Sheffield Pet Owners
Gingers, I use Lush products since switching from Body Shop a number of years ago. They are very strict on the sourcing of their ingredients testing and production. http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2006/mar/17/retail.animalrights
