Hi Guys, The site has been upgraded to a new version. You will see some shiny new bits on there, and will notice some things have changed (menu structure for example). I'm still in the process of going through some changes, so you will see more bits change over the next few hours no doubt.

On the latest upgrade, you will see that I have changed the way in which the camp section of the site now works. The problem with the camp section, is that it can be difficult to get all information together into one place. You will now see that when you select Husky Camp 2017 - Oct, that instead of the traditional forum view, you instead are taken to the camp section for October. the first thing that you will see there, is an activity stream of content related to the camp. You can join the camp discussions by selecting the join button you will see in the top right of that page. There is then a section to see who has joined that area, a section for information (whic…

Just so that people know, the site has now been switched to use the secure https protocol rather than http. If you have to log in again, or accept browser notifications again etc, this will be why. If you see anyone who cannot get to the site for some reason, ask them to just refresh and it should get them back on the site.

Hi All, My now you will have no doubt noticed that the "Unread Content" has changed in the way it works. You have probably also noticed the Activity streams that we have on the site. These are an excellent way to discover new content on the site. There are some default streams which you can use such as the following All Activity - This will give you all activity in descending order as a stream. This one unlike others will notify you if you are on the page of any new content on the site. I like sitting on this page at times when on the site, as I miss nothing that is going on, so it can be a great feature Content I started - This will show you …

Server speed
by Marc- 22 replies

I am aware at the moment that the speed of the server is no where near what it used to be. Just to let you know, its not something that I am ignoring, infact quite the opposite. At the moment I'm looking at options with regards to updating some of the architecture that our setup is sitting on in order to (hopefully) make it much much faster. Some of which I have been setting up ready for testing today. Once I have some results of this I will let people know. It may involve some downtime at some point. At the moment I'm not sure how much I can minimise that, but I'll minimise it as much as it possible.

Recent topics block at the top of the site is staying disabled for now as causing some performance issues I dont want at the moment. We probably wont need it in any case to be honest, but will explain that later.

Just a heads up, the domain is being changed about, so it is likely you will see the site go offline for a short time at some point. It will come back dont worry

Hi All, I would like to introduce you to our new site sponsor, Dog & Spoon. Dog & Spoon is a dog hotel which in my opinion is more than just a simple boarding kennel for dogs. I can honestly say its a little hard to explain how cool this place looks in comparison to anything else you see around so I would encourage you to go and take a look for yourself at a place that really does look more quality than quantity. http://www.dogandspoon.co.uk @tonyb has also provided a video of the place owned by himself and Kathy for you to take a look at. (Cant believe you used that track Tony LOL)

Hi Guys, You will notice a few things that are different. Notably the navigation bar and the new content areas. I will explain more about these tomorrow and I am aware of the speed issues. I have been making some changes that will make it better, but I can only make changes every 24 hours as I have to gather the data in order to know where the issues are, so please bare with me. Oh, and also aware that the site thinks we have done 50 gazillion posts lol.

The title says it all really! 7 years ago today, 28th October, this place was dragged out of the depths of fur, puppy breath and pee pads Now - 7 years on, we're still surrounded by a muskier puppy breath, fur in our coffee's and in our food, but I don't think anyone would have it any other way. We've said goodbye to some long time friends and made some amazing new ones. One such friend we lost was Saskia who climbed Rainbow Bridge last October. Saskia was the mum to 2 of my boys and is sorely missed. We also said goodbye to Dana and Gijs, and to Eisa, to Bings and Daughtry and many more, who I am sure are all playing together now over the bridge, telling each othe…
