Ohhhhhhhh... Bubby . What a wonderful boy he was , seeing you safely through important years in your life . <3 His last day , and last snuggle were both perfect ...and your descriptions of him brought tears to my eyes . So sorry Bubbity ...you will all miss him dreadfully .

Oh Brilliant . Should be many more of them .... Thanks for the share !

Lovely! Yes, feed pup what he/she is used to ..that's best . No need to change the food if it's a decent food .. make sure you ask the breeder for the name so you can have some ready at home

That is certainly bad news about the collars I shall stop sharing .

BAD PK ... BAD!! LOL They are very nice looking ..and also look soft

wish I had spare money ... I can see pudden in one of these collars!

@PossumCorner They are so lovely MUCH quicker than a honeybee .. and of course in way smaller numbers It's one of my favourite challenges ...trying to get a decent image :D

Went hunting Blue banded bees yesterday ... (native..pretty, and very fast!)

wow!! that lorikeet !! :D love the BTN <3

That is a pretty angry face :P

12 weeks ?in OP

Agree with Mjosa. Also , contact the breeder and let them know .

LOL .. because it has an instant response ..seen by the owner to be amazing ..and so creates a dependence immediately .

Lovely swans

Perfect !! She knows her spitz breeds well, too

Took this last week in the Big Smoke , when my friend & I took my 93 y o aunt from out of the walls & blaring TV at her nursing home to a few seaside spots .She couldn't get out of the car , but so enjoyed watching the crowds, all the different dogs, and even a few boats

"Crown of Thorns"..one of the Euphorbias, I believe . Tough as old boots ... spectacular flower colour

YES. Why is he allowed the opportunity ? Dogs don't need to go to dog parks . really . he can have plenty of exercise and fun with you .... and learn all sorts of things He can socialise with known dogs , and enjoy company that way I do hope you can be recommended a good professional to help you both.

baby venomous snakes around the house are sent to their ancestors - as they are more dangerous than adults who have learned how to control envenomations . We have numerous , gorgeous yellow-faced whip snakes who are left alone ... they are small mouthed, dainty little beasties - very fast , and they are acceptable garden dwellers . While venomous, not dangerous ..and lovely to watch .

A little smartphone 'Spring' contribution ...

Thanks for a good news update

@Whiskeys Mum A few ideas : Carry a hiking pole or similar to thump on the ground to let snakes know you're coming ..(they feel the vibratiion) Only ever walk in a clear area, with great ground visibility . Only ever walk in the coolest part of the day . never walk in the dark Always make sure there is some mobile coverage , so maybe you can remain with a bitten animal, and have help come to you ..someone to help carry , perhaps . Make sure you have one or two proper snakebite bandages ..it's not only dogs who get bitten after all !

We have the occasional litter of working Koolies ... they do very well on natural weaning / supercoat puppy kibble and HEAPS of large meaty bones .. plus a mix of raw food. Every pup/dog is different, as is every budget and lifestyle usually dogs only get excess fat from their humans feeding too much food ..no matter what the food . ;)

Sorry you lost your girl . Rescue dogs can be any combination of breeds - but it's temperament which counts
