agree . Ones I've seen get worse before they get better ...

Old gertie had this ..she was in her teens .. several months ago . She spent a week or so being spoilt inside ... and resting , and eventually the wobbles and anxiety went :)

Yes- a crate for Ace :) A largeish one , where he can relax, chew a toy/bone/whatever . let the kitten wander ......so Ace begins to se it as part of the furniture, so to speak . When Ace is free - kitten is locked away securely , with arrangements so she can get in a tunnel/bed, out of sight .

really excited/happy /puppy :) Now that you scratch it , she will probably do it more often ;) Some dogs seem to do this more than others . my Hamlet was a great bum swiveller :)

he IS photogenic , I admit ;)

"I'd like to help ...but I'm SOOO tired .... "

G'day - I'm Merle :)

You know - those final moments with you , when she was relaxed and drifting - that was THE most wonderful gift ...

He is . and weird ;)

LIKE :) thanks .

yes! the string WAS hanging it so the pups could grab it ....

WEIRD Gremlin of a dog ....

they see a chance - so take it . :)

Thinking of you - it is so hard ..the build-up . What makes it bearable is the fact that they have no more confusion/seizures whatever . No One wants to live like that .

Nasturtiums are so tough ..and the spots of red/gold/orange are SO pretty . They can also be EATEN ;) The buds are a bit like capers - flowers and young leaves are deliciously peppery/pungent in salads :)

...waits for photos ... ;)

MANY years ago in suburban melbourne we found a paralysis tick in fesh laid garden mulch ( woodchips etc )

The photo was taken in the afternoon .. a VERY large 2.8 opening .. add a touch of contrast .. and it happened :)

"...then the Big Bad Wolf told Little Red Riding Pup that teddy bear would pay the ultimate price for her interference ..."

Before we all jump in sometimes the confusion starts with a misunderstanding the breeder may mean not main register papers not no papers at all. Its common for breeders to charge much more for breeding dogs . I also understood it to mean NO papers.. " $2800 with papers or is willing to sell the pup for $1600 without papers but with a copy of both parents papers."

;) it was only water - he was very hot , so I let him use the rainwater tank mug ;)

ok ..last one for now ...

i should not procrastinate - I get up to mischief.... 'bush mongrel'

Today :)
