To be honest irrespective of the brand that isn't alot of food for a growing baby & yes could very well be hungry. I don't feed supacoat but many do with no issues,if your happy with the dry then start adding more bulk to the meal raw mutton,chicken frames ,chicken necks or turkey necks,chicken mince,roo etc etc. I now my large breed pups at that age would be getting a kilo or more food a day & there not fat & run an acre all day every day They get dry,raw,necks,tuckertime roll etc etc Are you feeding what the breeder suggested ?? Have you asked the breeder what they suggest especially the portion size ??

Why Do Sighthounds Tend To Be Timid/sensitive?
Dogsfevr replied to corvus's topic in General Dog Discussion
But comparing bold is like comparing apples to oranges. You also can't compare a Rotti to a Grey Most average Joe would have no idea what a correct Greyhound temp was ,when we owned 13 & showed most people presumed they where nasty & would chase there kids or worse.No one ever said look at the timid greyhound -
Why Do Sighthounds Tend To Be Timid/sensitive?
Dogsfevr replied to corvus's topic in General Dog Discussion
Blame the owners sighthounds are sensitive but shouldn;t be timid. All our Greys where bomb proof,every weekend you see kids taking in Whippets for junior handlers because they are such perfect dogs temp wise . I should also add most breeds are sensitive ,matching the right owner to the right breed is so important -
we have a 100% success rate on spay contracts but wouldn't hesitate to do either option at 8/10 weeks . Our breed is highly sort after for DD,BYB & is crossed with any thing & every thing. Always seen advertised in Pet shops & always sold at puppy farms both pure & crossed. All the good breeders we now of in our breed do the same .

The Bull Terriers use the ROM title & i think there is based solely on points gained at shows. I like the system used by the American Whippet club OM/ROMX Regulations PDF FORM Approved January 2006; effective April 2006 The AWC Register of Merit program was developed to recognize Whippet sires and dams with superior producing ability. It was not designated as a conformation-only program and in past years we have seen an attempt to recognize more of the performance titles but they have been cumbersome at best. By utilizing events that already have inspection of disqualifying faults, this proposal provides a fairly simple way for people to utilize several different champion level titles in recognizing superior sires and dams. Following are a list of the titles and venues that will be discussed in the requirements: ROM/ROMX contributing titles: AKC bench champion AKC Field Champion ASFA LCM: Lure Courser of Merit, levels 1 and higher. CWA ARX: Award of Racing Excellence NAWRA RCh: Race Champion NOFCA CC and CM: Coursing Champion, Courser of Merit NOTRA ORC: Oval Racing Champion WRA WRCh: Whippet Racing Champion Qualifying titles and events: AKC JC: Junior Courser AKC SC: Senior Courser AKC MC: Master Courser ASFA FCh: Field Champion CWA TRP: Title of Racing Proficiency ROM/ROMX Requirements – Effective April 2006 The AWC awards the producing titles of ROM (Register Of Merit) and ROMX (Register Of Merit Excellent) to Whippets who have sired or produced exceptional numbers of bench, race or coursing champions. The American Whippet Club will award the Register of Merit and Register of Merit Excellent titles to outstanding sires and dams (alive or deceased) when the following requirements have been met: Register of Merit (ROM) For any Whippet sire whose offspring have earned a minimum of 15 or any Whippet dam whose offspring have earned a minimum of 7 of the following titles: Register of Merit Excellent (ROMX) For any Whippet sire whose offspring have earned a minimum of 25 or any Whippet dam whose offspring have earned a minimum of 10 of the following titles: 1. Contributing Titles: Unconditional Titles: AKC Champion, AKC Field Champion, ASFA LCM, ARM, ARX. Conditional Titles: CC, CM, ORC, RCH, WRCh. Since these titles are earned in venues where breed disqualifications are not completely inspected, or dogs with disqualifications can title, every dog contributing one of the conditional titles must present proof of an additional qualifying title or attendance in an event where height, eye and bite disqualifications, as described in the AWC breed standard, are examined for. 2. Qualifying titles and events include: AKC coursing (JC, SC, MC) CWA racing (TRP) ASFA coursing (FCh) Proof of competition in the AKC conformation ring. For the above listed events, either proof of title (photocopy) or an official record of attendance can serve to prove the dog has been inspected at least once, for all breed disqualifications. 3. A copy of the Contributing Title certificate MUST accompany the ROM/ROMX application (proof of AKC Ch, ARX, LCM, etc). It is up to the applying party to present all necessary documentation for all contributing titles! This is NOT THE JOB of the program director and the application WILL NOT BE PROCESSED if the paperwork is not complete. 4. A copy of the Qualifying Title or an official record of attendance MUST accompany the ROM/ROMX application where a conditional title is used. It is up to the applying party to present all necessary documentation for conditional titles! This is NOT THE JOB of the program director and the application WILL NOT BE PROCESSED if the paperwork is not complete. 5. Only one title in each field of endeavor to be counted (one racing title, one coursing title, one open field title). Conformation: AKC Champion Lure Coursing: ASFA LCM or higher, AKC FCh Racing: ARX, RCh, ORC, WRCh Open Field Coursing NOFCA CM, NOFCA CC 6. Only two titles maximum count per offspring. ROM awards are granted by application only. The applicant need not be the owner of the dog, but a completed form must be submitted, including proof of all contributing and qualifying titles.

[quote name='poodlefan' timestamp='1317949625' post='5530299' I doubt it will attract popular support. We could also add "must be certified clear of all inheritable conditions that can be tested for". That would rule out a few current GR CHs. I wouldn't support it because they makes the people who own one dog or bitch who never plaln to breed be ousted from the show ring through no fault of there own. I have 3 Grand Champs all Multi BIS winners but i don't breed those 3 breeds i purely indulge in the joys of owning & showing . They are all males & if they are used at stud fine & dandy. Grand Ch should be suitable for all people in the dog world not just breeders. As for dragging dogs around for the title not everyone does that .I live in a state with limited shows & have grand titled all mine at 3 years & under,all big winners . My current Grand chapm would also qualify for the new method if brought in,he is 3 years old & a breed that doesn't peak until 7/8. Isn't the ROM title for champs produced ??

Roughly How Much Does Kennelling Cost Per Day?
Dogsfevr replied to Simply Grand's topic in General Dog Discussion
We charge $20 The difference being is what that money pays for . We pay GST ,we have public liability insurance & our insurance covers any injury to dog or human in our care . Clients sign a contract for what they are getting for there money (vet bills etc etc ). If you are going to charge then you need to then be prepared you are offering a service more than just house sitting . So you need to either look at the money to simply cover the food expense & work that out accordingly -
She isn't rough she mouths like every other judge does any other weekend ,checks the front/side & completed withing seconds . She didn't do anything out of the ordinary & was excellent with young dogs from what i saw .

She never counted teeth yesterday the Irish judge just checked for dentition the correct way
-
still need to have corn flour handy BUT if you haven't cut them that short before i wouldn't rush in before a show & do it. German judges are normally very particular about full & correct dentition the problem is many people don't train there dogs to have it done. FCI judges come with different ideals & teeth is usually # 1 Puppies yes it can be harder but adults should happily accept the mouth to open. Most judges if you do it yourself & do it well have no probs with you using the first step.

I showed under the Irish judge today ,found her excellent with mouthing dogs (checking more than just the front row) very quick & precise in doing so,great with the dogs & polite. She no awarded a few dogs today but the main reason seems to be temperament & i have no dramas with that .
