Hi guys

We have a 6 month old puppy and have been given conflicting info on what to feed him - one vet has told us to feed him the advance puppy biscuits/tins which we have been doing. Recently when we went to another puppy class they mentioned giving our pup 1 chicken frame (raw) for breakfast and 1 for dinner. To me this doesn't seem like enough but I wanted to get opinions on what you feed your dogs and what you would reccommend?

Thanks heaps!!

Hi all

Our puppy is 6 months old - we moved into our new house about 4 months ago and put down roll on lawn out the back. Lately he has been digging holes through the grass and then through the sand or ripping up lawn from the corners. He has plenty of toys that I switch around every few days, gets plenty of attention and a daily walk. Does anyone have any tips to stop this as we don't want to have to fence off the lawn area because it wouldn't leave as much room for him to run around. Any advice much appreciated! :)

Hi guys

Would appreciate some advice - my lower back, and left hand side from my ribs across to the back hurt on and off and have done for the last few days. I thought this was the way I was sleeping as I've also hurt my shoulder this way however when I've eaten meals over the last few days I get a bloated, and slight ill feeling for a couple of hours after eating. Burping seems to relieve it a bit and after a while it turns into a bit of heartburn and the sick feeling goes away. Normally I wouldn't be concerned but it's been 5 days and my back was aching today after returning to work and sitting at my desk all day. Touchwood, I dont have vomiting, diorreha, stomach aches, loss of appetite etc so I wonder whether the back ache can cause a bit of an upset when I eat? Anyone have any tips/advice?

Can anyone please tell me what a Geologist and Subsurface team member would do in an oil and gas company?? Answers much appreciated!

Did anyone do anything special for Valentines day?

Im currently trying to loose some weight and I'm trying to work out what some good healthy snacks would be for between meals other than a piece of fruit? are there any foods or drinks that spring to mind? I'm trying to stay away from the potato chips/chocolate etc.

just a quick question im hoping to get some advice on - how to calories work? for example packets of food etc has a fat content listed but there is nothing about calories - what are they and how do you know how much is a healthy consumption?

advice appreciated :)

hey all

Does anyone know any good ways to boost your immune system? Are there any particular foods/drinks etc that assist with this?

Hi all

Well after being told by my doctor for the last 2 years that I "probably" have gall stones I have finally had an ultrasound and have been told I have no sign of gall stones.

What I want to know then is why I get the pain under my right ribs sometimes after eating and whenever I press on it - and why would it feel bloated etc in that area sometimes?

Has this ever happened to anyone? Does it mean that there still could be an issue with my gall bladder that fat can't be digested properly or in high portions?

Any insight would be great!

I was just wondering whether you are able to suck in gas whilst an epidural is being put in place?

Has anyone had an epidural & if so is it painful/uncomfortable and can you have it topped up throughout labour?

Hey all

Hi All

I'm trying to give up having a morning cappuchino, and instead have a cup of tea and I'm just wondering if anyone can please tell me the best tea types 4 your health that I could have instead of a morning coffee & also for in the evenings before bed or after a meal.

I was just wanting to find out if soy milk has more health benefits than cows milk, and if so what are the benefits?

Hi All

I have a prob I hope you can help me with - I havent eaten breakfast for years and its because when I wake up I find that I just dont feel like eating...I'm hungry, sometimes even starving but the thought of food just makes me feel yuk!

Has anyone experienced this or does anyone know the best way to deal with this? I can drink a coffee around 8am but when it comes to actually eating something its a different story!

I have gall stones and have been reading that by taking a tablespoon of olive oil and 2 teaspoons of lemon juice each morning for a couple of weeks, that this helps with gall stones...firstly does this work? And secondly will the olive oil consumption upset my stomach (I also get bouts of Irritable bowel syndrome).

If anyone know Id appreciate the advice!

I'm hoping someone can give me some advice - one of my cats continues to sleep on the kitchen bench & dining room table etc which is becoming a real pain because obviously its not hygenic and it means we are constantly disinfecting the surfaces!!

We tried rubbing eucalyptis oil on the surfaces but this only worked for a day! Anyone got any advice?

Hi there,

Hoping I can get some advice - can anyone reccommend any foods or hot or cold drinks that are good to have before bed to help with digestion. I have gall bladder problems and sometimes I wake up in the night and have to sit up for a while to allow the gall bladder to do its thing...any help much appreciated!

Just getting some opinions - what is your favourite type & favourite brand of tea?

Hi All
