  1. Awwww... Thank you for sharing - the Elder enjoying a touch of late Spring ..and the Younger gaining wisdom I so love these photos *wipes dust from eyes..must be what they kicked up *
  2. I just realised this beast has ticked off THREE YEARS !! ..and he just gets weirder ;)
  3. @Rascalmyshadow on youtube found this longer one ...
  4. Some Quandongs ... And a strelitzea flower
  5. Ohhh.. it will be a tummy twisting week for you . I do hope all goes well on Friday , and for any trial period !
  6. I am glad you two found each other
  7. Seems an unsuitable dog was chosen for you .... for the cav's safety, and your sanity , the grey needs to be returned , and more research done to find a grey who has been fostered out and is noted as small dog safe . Upsetting , I know . Wishing you well .
  8. RP, WITH FOX I meant vulpine fox, not terrier
  9. ..and spend time wandering around dog parks/shows/shelters looking, asking questions and learning most folks love to talk about their dogs , and you will pick up all sorts of pointers to help in your choice of companion . It can also come to pass that one day , after months of searching .... one will find you . and YOU WILL KNOW .
  10. You might find the following some good reading  CLICK HERE also .. CLICK HERE puts things in perspective
  11. This is what we are working on Is your future dog handbag sized? Fox sized? labrador sized? larger ? you've never had a pup or dog before at all ?
  12. Which breeds attract you generally ? Do you like fluff, or huge, or stocky, or working , or racing sleek ? night time is when there are odd noises/stray cats /possums etc around , and pup/dog learns very quickly to bark and/or chase , because there's nothing stopping them Being outside alone all day and all night is an excellent way to teach a dog bad habits . being a dog owner can be an amazing experience because of the bonds which grow These bonds, and mutual understanding , mean that training/communication becomes second nature ..and you become a pair . Sadly , only physically being in the same space for 5 or so hrs a day will slow down this process somewhat , IMHO . A dog who shares resting/sleeping time with its human, and vice versa, absorbs the sounds, scents and rhythms A dog who spends nights indoors is not annoying neighbours with its barking , or learning to chase cats either LOL. Millions of dogs have humans who work ... then those humans spend hours walking/training/visiting friends/shopping etc with their dog when not working ! That's how a good dog+human relationship works :D
  13. double merle breeding ? don't do it . One can end up with a beast like this - hearing is fine ..except for sound location ..that's fairly casual . sight is not bad..but eyes are malformed..one in particular .... In his litter were 1 red, 1 black with dark eyes,(both with white collars/sox) 2 dark blue merle each with 1 blue eye ..and Pudden . he is mine .
  14. This poor girl needs a VET opinion . Sorry ... you cannot do much to help unless you know what the problems are . She does sound as if she's in awful pain . best of luck - what a terrible situation .
  15. Awwww... He is one of the best mixes around ! Cute, and stripy and cuddly and YOURS ;)
  16. There have been amazing days ..and the sky & yellow caught my eye ...
  17. There are all sorts of discussions and ideas if you click HERE it is a habit . habits become that way after many many many repetitions .... so owner and pup need to work together now .
  18. When water pumped from the river fills our tank ... this home made float tells us it's time to turn off the pump My favourites, the Bearded dragons , are out sunning themselves on posts again
  19. Ohhh... Thinking of you . I am so hoping there are people out there that Hugo will fall in love with , so making your decision a much easier one ....
  20. Agree with rebanne Talk about feeding with her breeder first ..then buy/adjust as needed . She definitely won't need rice "milk"..and nice LARGE raw bones are the best toothbrush/teething aid around ! Looking forward to photos
