  1. I like shops which have stuff like F10 disinfectant , raw food , and plain, strong leather collars! ;)
  2. Yep, I think I might get Marcus to help me move them tomorrow into the laundry with access to the hallway which is all lino. I'll put a baby gate up so they cannot come into the kitchen but they'll be more involved with the goings on in the house but still be able to have quiet and privacy in the laundry which is quite a big room. They haven't yet got the courage to venture out of the whelping box as yet but once they do it will be easier to clean up all their messes on lino too. sounds a good plan :) Hmmm..THE hand Model !! ;)
  3. precocious little bubs _ you are in for heaps of fun!
  4. ohh Nora took the decision out of your hands, really ......I am glad she is now not in any more pain , and that you know you cared for her as much as you possibly could .
  5. I am so so sorry. This thread is one I avoid these days???? Take care, both of you ????
  6. Perhaps get the tear ducts checked ???? It's a simple and fast test!
  7. Where can I get a dog who takes washing out of the machine? Think I really need one that can do that, will it hang it out and iron as well? F R , if you have a front loader .. it'd be easy enough to teach :)
  8. Antlers would be good ... and also frozen chicken carcasses , and frozen turkey necks (whole ) . they would be a meal , and a good chew!!
  9. I am one who firmly believes that dogs arrive just when they should - even if YOU aren't aware of it .... Jules...
  10. hopefully you will be able to fill the days with happy things :)
  11. I beg to differ ;) my absolute heart dog ..one of the nicest dogs ever, was one who found me when he was nearly two years old. We had just over 10 yrs together ..and he was brilliant . our bond was 100% > Pups are such hard work sometimes ... a young adult dog , temperament tested, thoroughly vet checked would be my suggestion for you :)
  12. It is a good time to bring a new dog into your family when you want one :) there is no 'right time' . So sorry about your puppy - that is very sad . One thing - make SURE everything is new for your next dog ... water buckets/bowls/bed/toys , and use F10 disinfectant to wash floors etc ....
  13. Our guys are like this , but perhaps yours are ahead a tad - getting ready for a lifetime of running!!
  14. you are working really hard :) I do hope you get professional advice though . A dog who lunges, growls and nips is NOT doing anyone any favours and will possibly land you in legal hot water should someone take fright ..trip or get nipped A dog who lunges, growls and nips , AND has to wear a very uncomfortable , macho looking /protect-the-throat-when fighting-or hunting pigs collar will quickly become noticed and possibly reported Jane Harper is someone in QLD who has a very good reputation - I strongly advise contact be made, and advice sought , so the hard work you have both done is added to . To add> I once had a 'pigdog' a great dane cross ..who weighed around 40 kg and was tall and brindle ..and looked 'scary' he wore a bright red collar on which I painted flowers, and had a teddy bear charm and a bell on his neck :) this made SUCH a difference as to how he was accepted by people !!!
  15. Oh Gosh - you been holding your breath all this time? :/
  16. Puddenhead and his sister , the gorgeous Miss Molly , the ersatz graceful whippet of the family ;)
  17. A Valentine's Morning to remember .. I think your idea of avoiding concrete a good one - hope your old boy continues to enjoy his walks .....
  18. Oh ! eyeses !! ( and we really do need more Marcus hand pictures. Really :p )
  19. Hmmm.. I guess my all time favourite thing when I have had pups was one particular ball toy!! I first bought it way back in around 1984 ...and it was a favourite for 3 pups after that! It's still going ..is under the couch, I think ;) It was originally for human babies - pink in colour, with raised letters of the alphabet on it ..and a squeak. Have a read here , too - this kind of information is priceless! happy waiting :)
  20. poor little guy ... hope that's the end of it now :)
