Ahahaha so the main culprits don't multiquote That explains it
-
There are different sizes of Wubbas, the small ones outlast my dogs okay, but our office SWF gave it a good go and nearly chewed off one of it's 'legs'
-
That's brilliant! Beautiful and clever
-
Rubystar is so high because she doesn't do multiquotes, what's your excuse VCBR? :)
-
Can you imagine a pap running over jumps with a tennis ball in his mouth? Would he even weigh enough to set off the ball machine? You wouldn't think so would you Here's a video, the pap isn't very good though
-
Trixie is still 400, and yes I agree her and Banjo would just run off doing zoomies
-
Oh and welcome tumbleweed!
-
Kyzer is short enough Actually Amanda's poodle who is just over 350mm is ball mad ;) Banjo could possibly be taught to do flyball but he isn't that ball mad He plays fetch but won't pick up the ball within a metre of me Kyzer would spontaneously combust wiith dogs and people running everywhere! ;)
-
It'd be good to have a corgi in the team because the jumps would be lower
-
Awesome! Don't know if my two would be any good at it though!
-
Yes she does look like decaff! Her ears, markings and coat are very Tenterfield / Mini Foxie like though, but could also be from a JRT, who knows because she's obviously a lot bigger but she's a lovely dog!
-
That second one came up in my subscriptions the other day, she is a speedy little thing isn't she! She's looking good and seems to be having a lot of fun

Preston Grandmother Watches In Horror As Her Pet Dog Is Attacked

With her mum, who doesn't have broken ears

I thought my ears were burning Well, this little breed has wormed it's way under my skin, I have owned my one for over a year now, and have met about 10 others. In summary from my experience: Very short coat which is very easy to keep clean Don't like the cold, mine loves the heat Very fast agile dogs (quite whippet like) mine is quite muscular, they love to run flat out Generally not as feisty as other terriers (they are supposed to be non sparring) although I know other users have reported meeting feisty ones, mine is very submissive If well socialised they are usually okay with dogs, I would say mine has never shown aggression with other dogs but if she gets scared she runs and there have been times when dogs have given chase and hurt her nad she has snapped at them, I have heard reports of one here in WA being not good with dogs and other DOLers have reported that, but it's not my general observation (we had over 10 at the MT fun day running off lead with not a growl between them) Cosmolo has one as a client, she might be able to share her experiences with that from a more qualified viewpoint They like to stalk things, mine stalks my other dog, birds, toys, moths, etc and I have seen some other MTs stalking other dogs in the park (seemed playful to me though) They are very jumpy! They are meant to be reserved with strangers which is my experience, but once they know someone they are very generous with love, mines a bit higher on the 'reserved with strangers' scale and barks at people she doesn't know and doesn't appreciate being taken into a big group of noisy strangers. ETA: If you want a dog that is instantly best friends with everybody the Manchester Terrier isn't likely to fit the bill Very good watch dogs, mine warning barks at strange noises, and they have a big bark for their size. Mine is very attached to me, she just has to be where I am and follows me from room to room Mine is quite energetic and if she doesn't get some sort of stimulation daily she goes very hyper and eats my things! She LOVES to train, can't get enough of it, especially agility, and will work for toys, food or praise / playing. Quite tough dogs, mine can be a bit reckless at times and flings herself off things and into things but is always fine afterwards They look bigger in photos than in real life but that should be okay for you because you've seen one in the flesh They are a rare breed but I was surprised at the price, it was less than a SBT or GR these days! They are believed to be direct descendents from the Black & Tan Terrier which was a very old breed used to develop the Doberman This is a UK site with more info including history: http://www.british-manchester-terrier-club.co.uk/ Here are some pictures of mine (her ears are broken though ) : ETA: She is a bit skinnier than usual in that last photo, but I prefer my dogs on the lean side because they do agility :D

Good thing you have a sense of humour hey Valley
-
Race ya then ;) Although I can only get to the 13/11, 27/11 and 11/12 (didn't know about the Dec trial). So you will probably get one of your titles at the next two trials ;) OzJen, think positive! She has around 15 months to get it before my 200 dog starts trialling Although take 6 months off if she has puppies... She has gotten 2 passes so far in 2 years so should get the 3rd in another year You'll win that one That sounds like a euphemism ;) ;) Well he will be bringing it I would expect? (Anyone heard that song 'detachable penis' ;) )
-
Are you going to the trial on the 31st? The little Papillon in my class is entered, it's their first trial He's going to beat Kyzer and Jenna to his AD title for sure
-
We only have 2 more trials this year I think. Jenna only needs one more pass for both her AD and her JDX Kyzer is the same isn't he? Yep they are tied There are trials on the 31/10, 6/11, 13/11, 27/11, 11/12, all evening trials except for the one this month :p
-
Yeah but the whole problem is I need instruction because I don't know what I'm doing Next year I will probably go up. The other thing that worried me is having the only 300 dog it would be impossible to get the heights down for our go but reading that email that just came through on the ACWA list makes me think they are catering for that now. And I think Jenna will get it first Either way I reckon both Jenna and Kyzer will be in Masters Jumping before they are out of Novice Agility ;)
-
You're in the same class as me aren't you Mirawee? We've been bundled in with pre-novice now... got two laps on the one course last night...
-
Yes, yes they do Poor rabbit copped a hiding! He has a few holes in him now!

No, Tuesdays are just too structured for consuming baked goods! The canteen sells cakes though if you really want some
