Hi Le!

Thanks! There was a guy from the press there today with a 1DII and a G10 in underwater housing. I can't wait to see his pics! He's coming back on Sat with housing for the 1D so he can get in the pool!!

You're funny. I keep having to have another look too I'm so in love with him :D

Is it 1.6? Do you reckon 1DsIII's will come down in price?

Thanks everyone

Gorgeous!!! Congratulations

One can only dream!

I did two last year, so I think it's only fair to let someone else do them this year! Bull breeds and mixed breeds are up for the taking. Anyone?

The vets rang this morning and said Ivan has either bronchitis or an allergy to the bronchitis? [i didn't take the call ] They said to know exactly how to treat it they'd like to put him under again and pump some fluid into his lungs to get a sample. For the princely sum of $1500 Alternatively he can go on a course of steroids for a week and if that doesn't work, some strong antibiotics. We don't want to put him under again, so we're going with the second option. His heart is fine and it looks like he's going to be around for another while yet!!

I love the fifth one! ;)

I was just thinking the same. We really did have identical holidays, didn't we? ;)

Several months ago I saw a picture of Oscar on another forum. He comes from Mischiefmaka Kennels in Victoria. I've admired their dogs for a long time and I'm especially partial to the whiteys! I sent a message to Oscar's owner and asked if I could photograph him. Life kind of got in the way and I didn't get around to doing the shoot until yesterday. I was kicking myself that I hadn't done it before the clocks changed cause getting up at 5am nearly killed me! It nearly killed Oscar too, he's definitely not a morning dog!! When I arrived I couldn't believe how sweet and smoochy and calm he was. For a dog that's not even two yet he put my lot of crazies to shame. After a few minutes of cuddles we dragged sleepyhead outside to do a bit of modeling. Being so handsome can get boring so he alleviated it with the occasional bout of zoomies!! I had a wonderful idea to put him in this chair in front of the trees to get some nice bokeh, but Oscar thought it sucked so he pulled a few "woe is me" faces and then pissed off! I can haz treat? <3 Settling in for a hard earned nana nap. Unfortunately I wasn't stealth enough to smuggle him into my car when I was leaving! Such a gorgeous dog. He's a testament to his owners and his breeder

After training OH decided to try running him from the end of the dock and he did get a bit further. The dogs that are really good are the dogs that are running to jump into the water regardless of the toy. Chopper's only doing it for his ball. He's hesitating a bit before he jumps in. Apparently the water's freezing, so maybe he's just a wuss!

Some photos from today here

Thanks! Flickr made them look very over-sharpened them for some reason Chopper was better today, but probably cause he had a better ball thrower than the last two times! He's still not as good as the bigger dogs. I'll be very surprised if he makes the team. He's having fun though

Doc's AWESOME!!

In case you missed this thread, we've been bringing Chopper to train for a place on the dock diving team for the world games. I took some photos today ... Getting some loving in before his jump Apparently he left his leash manners at the gate! I think I need to get him a Superman cape! Nearly all the other dogs tuck their legs up, but not Chopper, he has to be different These are some of the other dogs. Most of them are jumping HEAPS better than Chopper!

Thanks everyone, I really appreciate it. I was just making his food and he spent at least a minute doing roundabouts on the back deck, so he can't be too sick As soon as we hear back about the xrays I'll let you know ;)

If anyone else is enjoying these as much as me, check out the group on Flickr ... http://www.flickr.com/groups/tenfactsaboutyourdog/

It's weird, eh? I feel it's changed me. I was walking her today and a small dog ran up to us. I didn't tense up at all. Trixie panicked but I stayed calm. Maybe there's hope for us yet!

Au contraire, he's Chopper's boyfriend We had to crate him so he didn't get jealous.

She's supposed to hate other dogs! She was flirting shamelessly and acting so submissive with him. Maybe she's not as bad as I thought she was

Thanks mate Well, almost $800 later we're still none the wiser. They've sent his x-rays away to be looked at, we'll hear back in a week.
