Ok I am starting the chant as I have just found out some of the babies are leaving the nest this weekend so join in everyone - WE WANT PICCIES, WE WANT PICCIES, WE WANT PICCIES!!!

Cool - let hope there isn't too much more on it!

Oh dear, not the best news Hope the injections aren't to expensive! Feeding wise perhaps you will have to feed your other three woofa's outside and your allergy boy in the laundry. Perhaps take the list I have attached below of the ingredients of Artmeis Maximal Dog to your vet to see if they think you could feed this to him. Otherwise perhaps chicken mince and sweet potato and make it on a sunday freezing meal sized portions! Also re the injection you just grab a bit of skin oull it up and inject there with a very thin needle - thus far Benson hasn't even noticed then!

Hi all A quick update from last night's visit to the vets I was able to convince the dermatologist that I can do the injections at home and that I will be getting welding gloves so that I can't prick myself with the needle (will only be wearing one glove on the hand pulling up the skin). YAY! I was turning out to be an hour round trip cause of the hideous traffic so I am happy that I can now do them without having to go out. Now to actually do it I mean I have injected myself before but no one else - yes I got training but still actually pushing it in is going to be quite scary! Wish me luck for tomorrow I have a feeling I will need it! :D ZA - how are your guys going? Stormie - where are you up to with starting the injections? And what was put in them? Munchin - have you got the results back yet?

It's avoidance ;) And

Prime Minister :p Ps love how you ignore me my question LP ;)

But that doesn't answer the question - is Piglet show potential and are you looking for a show home for her???

So it's Piglet who is going to another show home as I think Mia will be way too rural to be shown and we already know you're keeping Zara to show and continue your lines! Ps in my previous post I meant to write Ollie is not show potential :laugh:

So it's Polly or Piglet cause Panda is mismarked, Ollie is show standard and the others are spoken for!

So is Ollie a show potential pup then??? Edit or possibly Piglet too??? Cause you have ruled out Polly, Mia and Panda, and you're keeping Zara!

LP - WE WANT ANSWERS!!! (ie. answers to questions posed by BonnieParker and RubyStar) We're waiting!!!

Holy Crap what did you do to them LP??? They have really sprung up and out - fluffiness wise! Man Lacey and Polly are stunning!!!

Perhaps try washing her every four days too Lillysmum!

Oh yeah forgot about testing the T4 and TSH levels first, then the derm! (that will help either eliminate thyroid or prove you need further testing done as Loraine can tell you).

Jump ahead is my advice and ask for a referral to a dermatologist - I knew what I Know now I would have done this first rather than trying to solve the problems on my own. Here is my thread re Benson's allergies and then Zayda_Asher has another link in there http://www.dolforums.com.au/index.php?showtopic=166777

So when do the rest of us find out which one your keeping LP?!?!
