Have you bathed him?

Seriously? :D

Such a little ray of sunshine!

So you wanted bands, but you didn't want bands. OK.

DOL pack mentality from the usual suspects. Nothing new really. Oh dear my mistake. I forgot that you are not allowed to indulge in humour on this forum anymore, and if you dare to have a joke with someone else in the thread, the DOL police come after you and call you a pack Naughty Gareth

Do they make doggy viagra?

What Bailey's Mum said. I mean really...he's not going to spend the rest of his life thinking you were a horrible man hater who sliced his foreskin off. He'll be fine. He'll be back to the bounce around puppy in no time. Now Raz, let's not be too hasty. I mean there must be a reason that puppy prozac was invented. Perhaps it was to help dogs cope with the loss of their sexual identity

Well when you work out what you are talking about, please let us know and we can reply more appropriately

Not all bitches are maternal, and honestly, that ones that are do not have maternal urges till the pups pop out, so how can they know what they are missing out on? Perhaps read the whole paragraph? I acknowledged that it is not logical - it is purely emotional. Dogs do not have human emotions.

Yes that is a puppy farm. Please remove the link so as NOT to give them advertising.

You can go back to that clinic and ask to see the boss. If the boss was the one you saw originally, ask to see a different vet and explain that the first vet quoted you $2800 without looking down your dog's ears and without giving you a possible diagnosis.

I'd never miss a National, no matter how far I had to go or how difficult.

Good question. Could be as simple as a grass seed down there.

Why do you need a coat for a Pom?

You are giving him more free advertising. You need to remove names and personal details.

Wire, did you give your dog some probiotics? Protexin, Inner health tabs, natural yoghurt, a bottle of yakhult? He will need some, especially with all those antibiotics. I know some will say don't give them until the course is finished, but I would give at the same time. Why is having antibiotics? Was he tested for a specific bug? Be careful of that as some vets treat broadly and the problem will still exist underneath and return after the ab's are finished. I would not be giving them. And don't forget Slippery elm powder from health food stores is fantastic for irritated guts. A soothing natural remedy. Fixes any issues straightaway in my experience.

So how do breeders buy and sell pups to and from other states?

How is an interstate flight from Tassie to Melbourne different to an interstate flight from anywhere else in Australia to melbourne? Genuine question.

Death by DOL forum. Happens all the time.

Surprised you don't already have the knowledge to manage entire dogs of the opposite sex prior to the bitch coming into season Contact your breeder and arrange to have one of them boarded if you don't want any accidents.

Oh Noes!! Let's all track this dreadful owner down and flog them to death After all third and fourth hand info is surely enough to condemn someone to death isn't it?

...really wishing Angelsun would return and explain why the GSD exhibitors were wearing bikinis Sounds fascinating

No flaming here. You will soon learn what needs the vet and what doesn't. If he is otherwise well - eating, drinking and playing, runny poos for a couple of days is no cause for concern. You will know if he needs a vet. No doubt once the irritation has cleared out he will be fine, and any treatment in the meantime may actually hamper nature.
