I agree Yorkpark. Anyone who lives in the area will tell you the lawns are a quagmire. Inside- now that is common sense . Judges, officials, exhibitors and dogs don't want to be out in the weather we are having at the moment. at 10am we had a sunny 5 degrees here in Hastings

Did any dogs that "were not in the catalogues" compete and go on to win Challenges etc? (I am not referring to my breed but all of the breeds). As per rules and regulationsb how would one get on if their exhibit was NOT in the catalogue but say won Bitch Challenge etc? Would they keep their points or because they were NOt "catalogued" would they lose their points

Ok KOE Nelson is just one very cheeky and happy chappy and he and my Gracie love to romp together :D

Congratulations to my dearest friend Katrina Stanuiland( Kinrina Collies) for winning both Dog Challenges at Caulfied Championship Show and Classic Dog Championship Show( Collie specialist Ms Janice Cook) with her delightful Blue Merle boy Carluke Willofthe Wisp or Nelson to his friends Nelson is not quite 2 years of age and he is now over 1/2 way to his Title. His "girlfriend" Gracie(aka Ch Boldfolk Amazing Grace) is very pleased for this cheeky Blue boy and his "Mum".

I posted my entry as soon as VICDOG Schedule was out and cheque was promptly banked but never received my exhibit number in the Stamped, self-addressed envelope Secretary said my dog was entered but given the weather forecast for Geelong(heavy rain) decided to sleep in and just stay at home , reading books and watching DVD's( and going out for Lunch of course :D )

In Vic you are required to send the following to DogsVic; Copy of Desexing Certificate ; Original Certificate of Pedigree; and written request to state that you want your dgo' sex changed to- Spayed/Neutered. The Certificate of Pedigree will come back and where it states" Sex" it with either state "Spayed" or "Neutered". if you need it urgently you can pay for the Same Day Processing Fee

BIG Grp 5 Huebner's Puli

I agree with the others, get your friend to go to a Police Station asap and report that the dogs(aka"Goods") are "being tampered with" without the express consent of the owner. Dogs are classed as "goods" so no 3rd party cant "tamper" with said goods without written consent of the owner of said "goods". Hopefully( meaning praying) that the dogs have not been desexed.

Hope everything is ok BB? Any Collie Rough and Smooth results would be greatly appreciated :D Thanks in anticipation

:D way to go !

It was a Glentress Border Collie, can't remember which one though sorry

Collie Rough BCC and Runner Up Best of Breed was our homebred girl BOLDFOLK AMAZING GRACE aka "Gracie' who was again superbly handled by my dear friend Kerrie of Calstead Collies Kennels

IBD is actually Inflammatory Bowel Disease and can only be correctly diagnosed by Endoscopy. Irriatable Bowel Syndrome is Totally different. I had a dog with medically diagnosed (by endoscopy) Inflammatory Bowel Disease by a Veterinary Internal Medicine Specialist. Different diets were tried- Hills Z/d, cooked turkey mince and potato, steamed rabbit and potato plus she was put on cortisone. We even tried alternative Vet treatment but due to the severity of her Inflammatory Bowel Disease( and Vet error who, when giving her a GA caused a thiopentine skin slough which resulted in our girl getting ostemylitis) we had to give our girl her Wings as her IBD advanced so quickly that she was starting to suffer and lose quality of life. The cause for her IBD - we believe it toi be one "Greenie" that the Vet gave to assist in the keeping of her teeth clean. I myself have medically diagnosed IBD and it is a bugger to try and stop "flare-ups" as the slightest incorrect food can set it off. I take Inner Health Plus Probiotics daily and Slippery Elm Bark Capsules and they do assist in keeping my IBD in check.

any Collie Rough results? please

My homebred girl Boldfolk Amazing Grace went away for the weekend with her "Aunty" and my cherised friend Miss Kerrie Thompson of Calstead Collie Kennels Mt Elephant & District Kennel Club Inc 12.3.2011 Championship Show(AM)- Judge Miss K Martin(NZ) Bitch Challenge and Best of Breed awarded to my girl Boldfolk Amazing Grace(14points) :D Gracie was again superbly handled by Kerrie.
