Tenties

Sure do tlc.......

Glad all went well tlc, maybe you could write a how to and what happens guide for those that havent got a clue... ( )

Well hi di ho Lizzy, bout time you made it here tlc am slowly catching up on my sleep,didnt get up today till 11:30 Singleton pup is going well of course now she has all the attention ( and milk ) her name will be Serren Dippity which i understand means a mistake ???? i dont think i will be long out of bed today her little whisperings and carry on at night keep me half awake.....but i dare not move her into the spare room just in case.....

I got 1 1/2 hours tlc and when i woke up one pup was dead (the little boy ) the other very cold and she died at around 5:30 6:am the girl that is left is the big one and she has Fidget tied in knots doesnt stop whingeing and Fidget has to concentrate on her, she is the reason the pups have died they were too small for a first time Mum trying to keep one demanding puppy happy, oh well cant do much about it now....

tlc, i cant do pic's at all on this i can only save pics that are sent to me, its something i hadnt even thought of with the netbooks when i bought this..... Bad new's on the Puppy front i'm afraid..... :D I went outside to feed the chook's and give them water etc, stopped to pick some Roses and Iris before coming back inside, when i checked on the pup's , Fidget had lain on the liver boy and he was near dead......i tried everything with him but nothing worked and he eventually died i felt awful cos i said i didnt like livers....i dont hate them that much ;) i hate losing puppies, im hopeless as a breeder cos it affects me so much ;) As for the other boy , he seems to be doing ok now so maybe some bruising only ??? i will be up half the night again with them tonight i can see it coming, i will be paranoid that Fidget will lay on another one.....

If you all need Baby pic's then someone better pop in and take some cos i cant put pic's on here with the netbook, they dont do that sort of thing, very frustrating i might add.....

Sorry tez, tlc the brain wasnt functioning correctly last night :D .....yes this is little Fidget's first litter and she is mighty proud of the results of her labour.... she still has 4 bub's but has carried the same pup around in her mouth so much that i now think he has some form of liver damage from it this is why i hate them doing it, use to see this quite often in the clinics ( have also had this happen with G/Shepherd's ) and its heatbreaking to up and lose a bub because Mum is a tad anxious, i have got her to stop it so far today but im hovering around her watching the little boy to see if he is going downhill more ?? How's this bloody weather ??... what happened to the 29 yesterday and where did all the rain come from ??? it just hasnt stopped here Oh meant to tell you, i tried cleaning up the other male pup last night cos he looked as if he had a layer of blood smeared on him and found he was a liver ...my first.... they dont come along every day...... i'm not all that keen on them and think they look like Kelpies, he would have to be something super dooper for me not to put him in a pet home so i shall watch and see how he shapes up ???

Its both eye's tez, a Doctor in Geelong stuffed one up, and didnt bother straightening the other ?? i had Endo carditis 4 yrs ago now and it caused a stroke which turned my eye's, i have to have them straightened as soon as possible as the eye i use is my right eye and i have to turn my head to the left to see straight ahead, this is causing me to have issues with my spine , mowing lawns , even walking etc etc and now i dont even know where straight ahead is ???? as my brain has adjusted to think im looking straight ahead even though my head is turned ??? Fidget is now the proud Mum of 4 bub's 2 girls and 2 boy's dont ask me where she was hiding them as she wasnt all that big ??? she is busy telling all the dogs to stay away from them with that funny little bark of her's and just like her Mum she pick's the bub's up in her mouth to shift them .... i hate that lol.....oh and forgot.... ALL 4 puppies are long bob's Fidget must be very strong in that department which is great new's for me.....

Well as things dont always go the way they are expected for me it came as no surprise to go out the back to feed Fidget this evening and find that she had started to whelp on her own, she is not due until the 15th... so far she has a boy and a girl both long bobs and im thinking there is another in there as she has a hard bump in her side, she wasnt very big so she has done a very good job of hiding them but in saying that they are very small which is good.

Ok peoples, sorry but i need a rant.... As most know i have been waiting on the Eye and Ear Hospital to send me an appointment to make arrangements as to surgery i need on my Eye's, most know how long i have been waiting well, last month i rang them , but was curtly told that "other people had more serious problems with their eye's and needed to be seen first BUT if i considered that my eye's had got worse that i should get another referral sent down.... ok... i did that...... then i get a letter in the mail asking if i still need the appointment ???? then another letter the day after saying they had recieved my referral and should my condition get worse to contact my Doctor ....i showed this to my Doctor who couldnt work out what was going on , so he sent yet another referral to them on the 10th... well today i decided to ring them and find out what was going on..... i got all sorts of excuses about everything but the women said now wait for it ....... THEY HAD ONLY JUST RECIEVED MY REFERRAL ON THE 10th of this month and said i would have to wait like everyone else well did i let rip....... she sort of sounded like she started choking and said to hold the line then came back and said she would see what they could do......it seems they rang Mum's place in the next 5 minutes then rang my mobile to say they had made a mistake so have made an appointment for me on the 17th Dec.... wow !!!!!!! now im mad about being fobbed off all this time just because someone made a mistake and no one was willing to listen to me.... of course im the stupid DF not them, cant wait till the 17th ;) someone is going to get an earfull..... RANT OVER FOLKS....thanks i feel heaps better now.... :D

Oh GSD's i forgot to tell you , i have your green tea here, i brought it home after the Funeral, i was going to try it out for a couple of days and replace it come payday but i have only had 2 out of it ;) ......to me it tastes like dirty tobacco :D maybe it does until you get used to it ;) might give it another go yet dont know, will see how i go..

Wish i could but i go in tomorrow for shopping......it is very beautiful out there and its bought the blowies out in full force here... i have the bug zapper going but there are hundreds of them by the sound of it... Della and Buzz are being kept amused by them anyway, although i think they have caught more than the zapper :rolleyes: i might go have a nice relaxing bubble bath before feed time at the zoo.. By the way, you should have seen the size of the spider that crawled up the inside of the drivers door on my car yesterday :D Mum opened her door to get out and run but i kept my cool, yep i froze :D bloody thing went down the gap between the windscreen and the dash, had a hard time doing it too he was sooooooooo big, he was a native huntsman, very grey and very furry ..... i kept my eye on him thats how come i can tell you that when i got home i emptied a can of fly spray in there, so hope its done the trick, i dont want anymore guest appearances thanks....heebie jeebie time again yukkkkk.............

Now that's an idea Tenties. I didn't realize it wasn't until Feb. Jut checked Terry's roster and it looks like he's got those days off, so looking good so far. I'm sure he'd look after the fur kids if I stay overnight. As for the milk & cake...warm milk is only for night-time because it helps put me to sleep, and the ONLY reason I have milk during the day (which has to be COLD by the way - preferably with ice :D ) is because we need more calcium as we get older... with arthritis and all ;) The cake.....well, that's to keep blood sugar at the right levels of course Theresa Phfffftttt cant half tell who's Daughter you are ( in regards to the cake ) Oh well , look's like we have a little outing forming for Feb, dont forget your chair and ice... i will have to hunt around for some really yummy cakes when the time comes

Gsd's, you could alway's stay the night ?? Mum has room so do i :D can Terry feed the rest of the clan for you ??? the show is in the latest mag if you want to know when ( cant be bothered looking for mine ) i think its in Feb so awhile yet.. I may have a singleton here next week, little Fidget is due and is not very big so my guess is one unless she sucks on the exhaust of the car between now and then if its a girl someone has already got dibs on her....Gsd's, you know well that Milk and cake are fattening and if its hot fermenting will take place and make us feel all funny :D and dog only knows what will happen then :D

Friends in Geelong have been visiting the Hospitals as well as old folks homes for quite a few years and they dont have any poblems, perhaps you could ring up one of the hospitals or homes down there and ask them what they do ??? instead of rattling on about what you dont know and dont appear to understand.....the dogs that visit "inpatient's " do a service and have been a highlight of many an elderly patients day and in some cases the only visit they get..... instead of looking at the bad side of what "may " happen try and think of the many positives that come from these visits...

um dont think so Janet, have you seen who's judging ?? :p if it were a boxing match..well ....may think about it ...but no i'm not entering, doesnt mean i wouldnt go for a sit and nibble session though :p i have my own chair and a camping table Just saw who is judging Group 2 on the Sunday. My that would be interesting! I'd buy a ringside seat... "ding-ding". You wouldn't be the only one buying a ticket JJ, i could get rich off this you know ....... well are we going to have a snob session or what ??? get as close to the ring's as possible so certain people see we are there but not entered ( well me anyway ) :D

I've had an interesting day... my kitchen is an obstacle course of crates/flooring/wet weather gear/gazebo roof/walls and dog coats all under the heater to dry out before tomorrow. It's a good thing it's addictive as I would wonder seriously why I do this to myself! :D Got totally drenched walking Masters Agility this morning but it did actually ease off enough to not get too wet the rest of the day. We got a 3rd and a pass in Open Agility - some awesome runs in between with some seriously stupid handler moments and one or two knocked bars The training I've been doing and the weight I've pulled off her in the last few months means I have a noticeably faster agility model and I've having some trouble adjusting But we had fun!! :p Sorry I didn't get to chat Pandii one thing I am a big stickler for is making sure my dogs are warmed up muscle wise, particularly in that kind of weather. I looked for you after I'd finished the run but couldn't see you. Gee, well done Jess, Agility is one thing i really wanted to get into with my lot but i cant with my eyes, i lose the dog, and i cant run now as my spine isnt straight because of my need to have my head on the side to see straight ahead, try running with your head turned the other way and you will get what i mean

Yeah i did JJ, i was trying to think who's car had the high pitch "beep " Didnt think it was you though ? Oh and i'm coming around to your place cos i want to experience what " Normal " life is

Well done Jess, what's next ???

Thank's everyone for your well wishes, the Funeral is on Friday at 2pm so everyone ( relo's) can get time off and get down here. etc JJ, did you start with a sore throat on one side only ??? i have had a sore throat on one side for the past few day's i checked in the mirror and my tongue right at the back on that side is swollen and all the little nodule thingies are huge, i really dont want to come down with anything at the moment.... Loved your Wedding pic's on Facebook......... by the way.... CONGRATULATIONS, now you are legal you have to share everything even viruse's tlc, those pic's are pretty good for phone pic's, good to see Migs so happy isnt it ?

Hi all..... Just letting you know......GSD's and my Father Died at around 4 am this Morning after a long drawn out battle with Cancer and very little treatment , although we didnt see eye to eye all that often , we did have our moments ..... RIP Dad

Dont know about walks tlc but i'm out in the garden planting seedlings and im almost going to sleep in the sun, isnt it just beautiful ( for once ) the only part i hate about Spring is the grass growing so quick and having to mow all the time, i used to love mowing and would keep checking the lawns at the farm encouraging them to grow so i could mow them now i cant see to do them properly i dread seeing them grow... maybe i could spray them with weed killer that might fix the problem Dont think Jenny and Rob would be happy about it though oh well back to it...

I didnt enter JJ, no way i just went down to pick up the crate that i bought of Lou ( Lady of the Ghans ) great inside crate by the way , large , on wheels and stainless steel.... I sat with Elsa (spikes puppy ) and her darling Borders.. met Miss Casey (sp ) who i havent met since she was born , very cute little dog...
