You can try these as well http://www.provizorinternational.com/australia.html http://www.provizorinternational.com/the-novaguardtrade.html My girl hated the Elizabethan collar.It was too wide and because the ears were inside the cone, the sound was amplified. With the novaguard, she freely moved around and the extra length mean she could not turn around and lick the wound or remove the stitches. regards KK Team

The Auslander dobe shown by Jan that day but normally Pete shows him. Thanks Angelsun

Thanks for the show results Rebelsquest. Do you, or anyone else know who was the BIS winning Dobe on Friday? thanks KK Team

I feed mine fresh/frozen sardines or pilchards. I get it from a fish monger. It works out way cheaper than feeding tin sardines considering I have large breed. In summer, they love it frozen.....just like a fish-sicle............lol. In winter, I just let it thaw out a bit before giving it to them. I've also given them salmon heads which are not expensive. Most fish places have them as humans are more interested in the salmon cutlets.

Dobecrazy, the results have not been updated on the website......Only 9 entries and not sure if all were present. I heard through the grapevine.....so don't quote me on this.....lol BOB and Challenge Dog: Ch Fireax La Leyenda Reserve Challenge Dog: Ch Walamara Dare T Discover Challenge Bitch: Fireax Visions And Dream Reserve Challenge Bitch: Atakarna...... (not sure which one as there were two entered) The above are hearsay and subject to official results on the RAS website.

If anyone is interested in the breed entry numbders and order of judging per day and for each judge...... http://www.sydneyroyal.com.au/breed_judging_schedule_2013.pdf Good luck to those entered. cheers KK Team

I hate mozzies. Not only for my dogs' sake but also mine.........lol Try and keep down the still water sources in your area, i.e. not pots or containers sitting around with water that allows mosquitoes to breed. Easier said than done depending on where you live and your neighbours. The last few years have not been that bad in Sydney in terms of flies and mozzies, but I have used Coopes before http://www.bayercropscience.com.au/es/products/productdetails.asp?id=35#prodDetails Wait until a nice sunny day with no wind. Bring in the dogs and spray around the area. With the sun, it dries quickly and help repel insects. I've also heard of an old wives tale that vitamin b is good to ward off mozzies. My does get brewers yeast in their diet so hopefully that will help mine.............lol

Hi All, I'm hoping some kind DOLers with a catalogue from the Wollongong & Dist Show - Sunday 3 March, will be able to provide some information. Can someone please let me know the first and last exhibit number in the Utility Group (Group 6) please. Started with Akitas and ended with a Tibetan Masitiff. Thanks in advance. cheers KK Team

Agree with everyone's comments. In addition, you could try lamb breast flaps. They are a little more fatty and could help with the weight gain. I used to feed mine tinned sardines, but with three large dogs (2 now), had to get a few cans. I started including fresh fish (sardines/pilchards/mackeral) and they love it. In summer, I leave them frozen, so it's like "fish-icle".....lol. Start off with a small amount so the dog can get used to it. Not all dogs may like fresh fish so beware. Good luck.

Thanks BBJ, you're a champ! I'm not entered, but good luck to everyone entered and showing. Hope the weather is great.

Thanks for the breed numbers. Why is there a 360 at the end of every line? If there are three shows, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, what days do the first two numbers relate to?

The Purse Sea is the highest protein content of them all, so maybe your furkid cannot digest that much. I have had my three, now two, on Canidae for a while and I alternate between the Salmon or the Lamb one and have never had any problems. Mine don't get Canidae everyday though and they are larger breed so probably burn off the extra fat/oils and protein.

Hi Kavik, I believe Peter has moved houses. If you have the landline number, then I can understand why it's not working. I can try and get the new number for you if you like. There is Gary and Neil Barnsley at Greendale. I think Neil does most of the consults now and his father, Gary is slowling down on the patients he sees. http://www.hotfrog.com.au/Companies/Animal-Holistic-Therapies#Products There is Sydney Animal Physiotherapy at Leichhardt. They have a water treadmill, but being in the inner city, are a tad more expensive. http://sydneyanimalphysiotherapy.com.au/ regards KK Team

Hi All, Just wondering if there are any kind DOLers that have a catalogue for the Dalwood Show on Sunday 25 November. If possible, could someone let me know which Miniature Schnauzers were entered. Thanks KK Team

Hi Mossbank, are you referring to these http://anivacfirst.com/ecowash.html? Where do you live? Someone actually came to my place and provided a demonstration. The noise is like a loud vacuum and it basically "sucks" the dirt and loose hairs. My dogs are fine with loud noises such as fireworks and lawnmovers and vacuum cleaners, but I think because the anivac eco wash was right next to them, they freaked out because of the noise. The demonstrator kept say, the dogs will be fine, they will get use to the sound and will love it. I decided to give it a miss, I didn't not want to freak my dogs out and thought bath time shoul be an enjoyable experience. I think if your dogs are ok with the noise, it might be worthwhile, although I am not sure if there are long term effects with regards to the sucking action on the skin and coat. Hopefully someone else who has one and able to use on their dogs will be able to provide feedback. Good luck. regards KK Team
