  2. Congrats to Robyn Wallace & CeeJay the PBGV for Group 4th!!! Would it be completely bogan to chant Aussie Aussie Aussie right now?
  3. So glad Rosie is impressed with her new bed! I assume she is managing to sleep with her leg in the air OK???
  4. What are they? Not that my two deserve anymore beds. Two destroyed in 3 weeks The last victim was this morning, right before leaving for work I stupidly said to the girls "now don't go and destroy your beds" :D Rubystar, PM sent
  5. Hey guys, Just a heads up to let you know I have listed some DogGone Smart Beds for sale in the OT Commercial Marketplace... if you don't have OT access PM me if you would like info WA DOLers can come and pick the beds up directly from me (we are in the Canning Vale Kennel Area), or I can drop them to any shows at the Canine Centre if that's easier!
  6. Tell me about it... I had a client try and book hers & her daughter's two new puppies (litter mates, and not crossbreeds) in for a stay... they picked up the pups a few days prior to the phone call. I worked backwards from the date of their stay to the date they called me and given that I assumed the pups were 8wks old there seemed to be no problems with vaccinations etc - they should have had their 16wk shot about 10 days before the date of boarding. I got a phone call back from them the next day, saying they had just phoned the vet to book in their FIRST vaccinations and the vet said they wouldn't be fully covered by the time they were booked to come in... I queried the first vacc thing, again assuming that the 'breeder' just hadn't done them at 6wks and had waited till 8wks... Nope, these poor babies were 5 1/2 weeks old when they got them and it was up to my clients to arrange their vaccinations!!! I did try and explain to my client that these pups were far too young to be in their new homes and why, and was told that the breeder said 'they were weaned so it was OK' Never mind about all the stuff puppies need to learn in those important early weeks from their mother and siblings... Just boggles my mind
  7. My 2 1/2yr old son saw this pic and said "Mum, thats a pretty puppy!!!" :D She is gooooooorgeous ;)
  8. So very sorry for your loss Sandy. Run free & fast Hooley :D
  9. Good luck!!!!! Almost impossible to find a copy of the Saga. I was lucky enough to borrow one for a while from a friend and it is an amazing book, but scarce as hen's teeth these days. Slightly easier to get hold of are the two World of The Dogues De Bordeaux books (the first book covers 2004 -2005 and the second book covers 2006 - 2007). Worth getting hold of! Best of luck
  10. What an awesome old lady she was!!! So sorry for your loss Rozzie, sleep well Abbey

    Serena I am so very sorry for your loss... thank you for sharing your boy & his marvellous life with all of us here on DOL. He knew you loved him best. Rest easy Rocco - The Bridge is a better place with you in it I am sure xxx
  12. Why would they get a complex??? Exactly?? Some of the toughest, most 'macho' dogs I've ever met have been Standard males in full show coat & clip... not to mention that most Poodles, regardless of size or haircut, consider themselves to be 10 foot tall and bulletproof - I can assure you their haircut plays absolutely no part in how a Poodle views itself or the world around it!! As far as why they are clipped this way, the Extended Breed Standard has a very good History Of The Breed chapter on the first page... have a read: Extended Breed Standard - The Poodle Hope that helps!!
  13. So sorry for your loss... what an amazing girl she was! Sleep sweetly Myra the Wonder-Dog
  14. OK, pretty OT but my very first show was in 1991 and I wore a lovely white, green and purple parasilk tracksuit (with matching Reeboks!!) to show my boy!! Oh, the memories!!! :p :p :) :)

  17. Another thumbs-up for Rod Shellback in Perth - he's been paying me out for more years than I care to remember! Great bloke and a good steward. Also used to love Ken Friday as a steward, and I've always gotten along famously with Brian... What a great thread!!!
  18. :laugh: Oops, sorry.... I know it's not really funny & thank goodness he wasn't hurt but all I could think of was that Riley has been launched! "Dog bless her, and all who sail in her..."
