The last thing I want to do with this blog is to misinform viewers and readers about health issues with our Borders. And that’s why I just wanted to update you as soon as I was certain of the outcome. Further to my article on CBD and its amazingly benefits for dogs, I received many […]
A couple of weeks ago Indy and I went to a Border Terrier walk organised by a local Facebook page, in support of Border Terrier Welfare. We thoroughly enjoyed it, even if we had to make an early exit as when it came to the actual walk, Indy was ‘fed up’ and would refuse to […]
The more I read and document myself about the truly extraordinary benefits of CBD, the more I feel the need to share what I have learned so far with you all. I know how hard it is to see your dog suffer, and the more I can do to help your dog escape from pain, […]

Those of you who follow us on Instagram (@living_with_a_border_terrier) or Twitter (@Giulia_Indy) will know already.
