I would be careful on humid days with an air con unless refrigerated It won't work as you plan & will infact will make that area hotter

WA has to do the exam

Everyone should check this site It appears they have taken details from DOL & other sources & have the details associated with the wrong breed,wrong owners & many more . If you have an issue email & complain Link removed by Troy as the info appears to have been removed now.

Hi all, This was posted on Facebook & i suggest anyone who advertises on DOL check it out. They have placed the wrong kennel names with the wrong people & breeds ,very poor taste is all i can say Link removed by Troy as it appears to be fixed now.

I would suggest a Tibetan Terrier wonderful dogs with kids

I won't use them, have seen to many dogs who didn't do well on them & the flip side of bad stacking habits.

Dogs don't have to be fat nor do show people strive for it but muscle & condition go hand in hand & skinny dogs being shown is just as bad as fat. My show dogs aren't fat & in the past my show dogs also did agility but agility has now become a sport for select breeds so i no longer compete as i won't put them at risk with courses not friendly to all shapes & sizes.

Depends what you actually want to learn,i wouldn't bother with either

Another thing to consider is some dogs are very long in loin & no amount of feeding will make them fat

Considering i would never feed the brand that is there major sponsor i dare say its another RSPCA sneaky way of gathering data

Bunbury KFC is fine providing you are happy to wait like 30/40 mins for an order Last year they stuffed our orders up so badly & then had a tainty when we complained & asked for our correct orders . Macca,s next door is great but you need to beat the cricket dudes there :p

http://nzpapclub.tripod.com/competition/flyball.htm This litlle package could catch a ball & trust me she was a small yank

My boy is ball trained,he also knows how to bounce to get a ball . Spends all day with a ball in his mouth.Lizzie also has a body suit plus wearing the snood

I heard one of the vic teams was maybe coming over to demonstrate. Im lucky i have my own personal trainer for flyball who has a Flyball master excellent titled dog Would you use one of your Setters? That would be awesome to see! yep ,my boys rellie & personal trainer if need be http://www.dogzonline.com.au/breeds/profile.asp?dog=19970 .i use to own a flyball box when it was becoming known here about 15 yrs ago,the dog i trained for it was an american Cocker who weighed in at 9kg

Greys are very wash & wear. Our show greys we did use to blow dry in winter & summer but this isn't a must do thing. Spray wise we used very little,if any maybe some plush puppy shine on . We did use white chalk on the partis if needed(we only showed partis & a solid blue) Lead wise ours where shown on very fine corded leads & one on a fine snake chain. Coat wise we always made our own to fit there body shape correctly . As for showing/stacking go to shows & watch the hound ring. Breeds of similar style (borzois/whippets/salukis) will give you many tips on how to show . The whippets will educate you on working there ears(if correct) for expression. If you own a video camera video video video ,you could practice with the 2 you have now. Check the DOL pages & look at the photo's of the grey's stacked.when practicing ALWAYS use a mirror or reflective surface & above all Greys can be a very animated breed so foster that ,nothing worse than a deep pain Grey running around the ring. Don't rush out & buy things,ask your breeder what they have found works well .

Her breeder has suggested that her back may be out, and asked about her tail carriage at home. It's up at home 95% of the time, so we have ruled out a chiro issue. I wouldn't rule it out if you have one up there. Tail carriage doesn't mean her back either. There are 2 muscles either side of the tail that if out will affect the tail carriage & create a lazy tail

Just realized a double post

Not sure what you have up there but my first port of call would be a doggy chiro /bowen.I always prefer to make sure bodily they can do the activities asked for before attempting to overload them with activities that may have the same result I see to many dogs dragged around the ring or unhappy looking because they are sore /out & the likes

Do you have them sigh a contract to waiver you off liability ?? What happens if you bath the Afghan in a dog range & it reacts when they are happy with Tresemme ??

When i was going to enter my ES you had to have proof that you had already started to apply for the export process

What does the stud downer want out of this litter. Use of there male will have some form of price attached?? Do they want a pup in return or a stud fee?? You say you wish to experience the whelping aspect.I have very close friends who breed top class poms & there is a high rate of c sections ,they often get 1/3 pups & that is after 24/7 bottle feeding & many sleepless days to ensure they survive .They don't go to work during this time or if they have to work have friends who do the day shift of bottlefeeding & watching to ensure they survive So if you do a pup return & have 1 pup what will you do?? If you pay a stud fee,plus c section & have 1 pup what will you do (this part is very common in the pom world) As already said by others breeding isn't just about producing pups even pet people want there dogs to conform to the standard or be told prior to purchase that its faults are +++++., In poms over size is an issue creeping up more & more & they shouldn't be ,if people want a bigger pom they can buy a German spitz Did your breeder sell said bitch on spay contract or just limited papers ??

I wouldn't do this . In your situation then i would use my own vehicle as a form of training. Take it in turns of driving past with pup sitting outside calmly & ignoring the insecurity & praising . I would pretend to be doing gardening anything that is non specific to what is happening. If she is good at school then use that area for more "fun time" with vehicles.

at 16 weeks most of our youngsters are only doing 3 houses up & back,we are in no rush . Just sit out on the front lawn & let her watch the cars go past We sit outside with our pups so they can see the cars go past with no pressure & when a car does go past we make it fun . You may want to walk further but she is 16 weeks & there is no harm in being patient when you have the next 14 yrs to enjoy the dog Just give the pup a chance to get use to things & not advice beyond its abilities because you want it to,small steps are always rewarded,giant leaps don't always end well

We firstly ask what they now about the breed & what they are looking for in a pet & why the breed gained there attention. We try not to ask too much because we want to see who has done some simple research & who has done bugger all & has no idea about the breed & it doesn't fit there check list of wants
