  1. Sorry you're in Hosp . - hope you're out & about soon :) That's a great handyman OH you have - although that fence seems a bit low ? is that the only fence separating them from the rest of the world- or is it an enclosure in your yard? You could try, for toileting , a large rectangle of good artificial turf , with something like a large Conni Critters pad underneath ... that way the turf can be hosed, and the pad replaced/washed - and paving remain clean & dry :)
  2. ..and if anyone can translate my "links? puter not being helpful, sorry ..
  3. Oh dear I am so very sorry .I am glad though that this diagnosis was done with much explanation and caring ...Dear Bru - in for a time now of spoiling and cuddles and icecream ... happy memories and photos.I do hope some info in these sites might help you & your child .. \http://www.petplace.com/article/dogs/behavior-training/loss-mourning-a-dog/explaining-pet-loss-to-children-six-dos-and-dontshttp://www.griefhealingblog.com/2011/05/helping-children-cope-with-pets.html
  4. have a look at this thread~ grab a few cups of coffee ...dive in! I would suggest starting simple - using a meaty bone such as turkey neck or chicken carcass as a base ..
  5. LETTER TO Dpi and department of fisheries Local Councils Ban 1080 baiting
  6. oh - I thought it said banned *goes to look again*
  7. 10 80 is very effective ,BUT should only be done properly - ie: buried , counted, regularly inspected and removed if not taken . I am not signing - as I believe , when carried out responsibly , it is allowable . I HATE the irresponsible use of it , where birds can pick up baits , where domestic animals can access it , where no notifications are posted , and , in large areas, where people drive along, throwing baits out willy-nilly.
  8. Around here- the handsome ones are usually the ones who don't amount to much ;) We'll see ....Mind you, if he doesn't stop turning toys into snow drifts ........
  9. What a cute face :) thankyou .
  10. The lad's growing up. here he is this morning on a table, eyeing off clothes line perching Apostlebirds :)
  11. Thunderstorms are when you get the BEST treats & games ..& go outside to play your favourite game :)
  12. I love your son :) What a great thing to do . You've done well with the photos, too :)
  13. I worked at a vet's many years ago - and we had good results with this :) is your dog having problems ?
  14. if someone likes a particular breeders' lines.. or likes the support /health care the breeder supplies they will want a pup- interstate or not :) I certainly don't think it is unusual :)
  15. It is a bit sore , no doubt ... but he certainly has NO idea of what his testicles were, let alone feeling "violated " :)
  16. SO hoping for a happy day or two ... we do need Bru pics :)
  17. I hope you have a more relaxed weekend .. thinking of you :)
  18. Talking it over with Steve is indeed the wisest choice, as he knows you, your dogs and your situation :)
  19. I agree - why expose her to other dogs if she reacts like that ? She doesn't 'have' to like or play with others of her kind - esp as she has her sibling , training, and a wonderful doggy yard!! Also, I would be concerned that your boy may pick up on her behaviour , and react in ways you won't enjoy Another who strongly suggests a reputable and recommended behaviourist .Feel free to ask on here for names !!
  20. Just make sure he gets some fluid tonight .. and get some sleep . Tomorrow will be a big day .
