Has anyone found if they feed the amounts suggested their dogs get fat? My borders get 1 cup and 3/4 cup daily anymore and they get fat ie can't feel their ribs. They don't appear to be hungry at all...If I press quite firmly running my hands down their side I can just feel their ribs

1cup = 90-100gms?went out to weigh it for you only to find my good salter scales have had the on off button pushed in, not happy grrr

Yay I found someone only ten minutes from me who sells BH now I dont have to get it brought up from Sydney nor do I have to pay $97 a bag from a pet store for it! Dogs are very happy again

Guess dogs are like people some foods make them bigger and some smaller.......all food is my enemy lol it all makes me bigger cos I eat so much of it and it's yummy

I have a German shepherd and 2 bcs. The shep gets 3 cups a day and it's been the only thing to keep weight on him and the bcs get 1 cup each and I have to watch their weight. I do also feed them turkey necks and fresh meat 3 times a week but I can honestly say I am very happy with it....now to find a local supplier so I don't have to ask a friend to get it for me or have it couriered up. :D

If you're anywhere near Hillsborough this weekend, pop on in and say hi. Happy to chat with you. I'll be sitting with other BC people (PooMother is she comes) and some crazy Bearded Collies too! I'll be there :-)

That she is

Lucky you!! Who is this breeder of whom you speak Oh no one you would know I shouldn't think :D

Thanks BC. Well we'll see how brave I am when the time comes on the up side I have a few friends who may be interested and who I know are fantastic people and live close by :) although I'm not sure they would spoil I mean care for them in the same manner I do with mine lol but suffice to say people at work have commented that in their next life they want to come back as one of my dogs.

Oh never will any puppies be spoilt in this house nor the adult ones....................... :D In all seriousness though, from the first meeting till now it's been nearly 4 years. They do ALL testing on their stock as I have done on my girl, well she was DNA or parent clear anyway but we are talking hips/elbows/gonioscopy and are helping me every step of the way, only a phone call or car trip away oh and we show as well. :-)

I consider myself very fortunate as I scored big time finding a fabulous breeder and mentor who I have gotten a MR bitch from. I didn't just pull them from thin air though. I had been to a few shows, gone through websites, watched dogs and puppies of the breeders at shows, watched how they interacted with others .....gosh I sound like a stalker, then after talking to the breeder I started to go along to shows and meet them there and offered my services with helping out......hoping to have my first litter this year. I still hang with them at shows and outside of the doggy world, have found myself a beautiful friend in the process.

I've also got the ozito dremmel from bunnings have had nt for 3 years now and use it on borders and sheppies and um toenails :-) Damned autocorrect

Is this suit still available? If so can I please buy it. Yes it is silvawillow. Would you like me to send you more photos or measurements?

Sorry for the delay in updating. Wow is all I can really say that is polite! Daughter rang the council and the only complaint they have is that the dog/pup barks a bit and was escaping.....NO dog attack on someone, no record of it being pitbull etc etc. she was soooooo angry I couldn't beleive it myself. She is going to lodge a formal complaint about the lady ranger who the council had no explanation as to why she would have said those things. Council are sending her a letter that only mentions the barking and escaping both of which had been rectified at the time. Words seriously fail me, however, we both thank you for your help and advice. Tybrax daughter apparently hadn't rung you as she had blocks on her phone which I only just found out about when I called her..can take incoming but can't make any outgoing Haha sorry thought I better clarify the phone situation - phone block was put in place last week hence her not calling you

Yes she told the ranger it wasn't her dog and asked who was attacked, where was the police report and doctors info

Thank you RnB

Thankyou teebs

Thanks,so do I, she is very upset. I seriously didn't think they could just come in and demand the dog is registered as dangerous. I did tell her I thought they would at least have to have substantiating evidence that the dog had 'attacked' someone....police and doctor reports not just on someone's say so especially someone who wasn't bitten? Thing is daughter is home all day every day except when she takes children too and from school and dog is always in yard when she leaves and gets home and no othe neighbor has said a thing to her other than what the idiot next door xneighbour had done to other tennants

Where can I find this information for qld please? Daughter has a Dane x puppy and council visited her to tell her they are investigating her pitbull wandering the street attacking people and that she has to rego her as a dangerous dog and have her desexed (not desexed yet as she was told to wait till she is one due to being a large dog, which she is but she will be) The rather large puppy has never biten or attacked anyone, a couple of times she had gotten out and another neighbor put her back in the yard, this has not happened since before Christmas. I have been googling but not having any luck so maybe looking at wrong thing. The only person who has complained to my daughter is her next door neighbour, she has left notes on my daughters front door threatening she will contact council etc neighbor has done the same thing to the previous 3 tenants dogs. Mind you she has 3 dogs herself that throw themselves at the fence when my grandies are outside playing but that's a whole other story
