June - see if you can get hold of a gel containing ISOTHIPENDYL HCL 0.75% - here it is called Thiodantol Jelly but I cannot find a UK brand. But if you ask a pharmacist for a gel containing the above it is brilliant for stopping itching fairly quickly.

Tawneywolf, my dad was given a tip years ago after being ate by mozzies...vitamin b tablets, i don't know how but it stops the little devils bothering you
Lucky star, i think you would be quite right to have a word with the instructor, it was your little fellas first lesson and he could have been put off for life! sorry to hear about lokis claw, have you heard of claw caps? i can have a look to see if i still have some xl ones... you are supposed to glue them on but i prefer not to
love the car names, our cars don't have names, my brothers did.... esther the fiesta
training was awesome tonight, my hooligan was sooooo well behaved and we are allowed to use our new harness, hope she is as good next week, she even got bit by another dog and is that soft still wagged her tail at it

I take Vitamin B6 already, is that the same as Vit B I wonder.
Thanks Malka will ask for that, I'm sure I've got something somewhere for bites and stings, no idea where.
Carla's just kissed Peter and Rob's thrown him out, and everyone's drunk
Well done at training class. If anyone has a do at my girls they come away with a fat lip unfortunately little dogs apparently 'don't mean any harm' and big dogs are 'dangerously out of control' when they do the same
Dentists next, will not be watching that, Life on Benefits is on, I can identify with that one

Better to take a B Complex than just B6 by itself, as they all work in conjunction with each other. A B50 Complex should be ideal as it has the correct balance of all the Bs.

Girls have a B complex every day, should I start taking theirs then

tawneywolf, dakota is supposed to be a staffy, she isn't a full staffy, it was a border terrier that had a pop at her and i am just glad she has such a nice nature as i think if she had retaliated then she would have got stuck with the bad dog label. the same dog had a pop at another dog the first week it turned up and had a go at a 17 week old pup as well tonight, i will be avoiding it in future!

On the subject of stings, THIS is also pretty good. I got some when I was running out of Thiodantol and my neighbour was not sure when she would be going into town to get me any, so I got the Ssssting Stop as above as an emergency.

Why not? Da Booga has mine!

Oh if she looks as though she's a staffy, it'll definitely be HER fault

Griff - thank you, I really appreciate that! Loki has had another walk and is walking much better, but I thank you for that offer.
