our guys start on solids at 3 weeks & are the size of chis LOL The stand in vet obviously is a kind. We personally have never had any luck with either products mentioned so we give goats milk but always add cream to bond it. Our pups at 3 weeks also start with farex & goats milk & never had a drama

I would say if its costing that much they are being ripped off big time or there telling porkies.

The steward should have been the one on the ball. The steward should have said sorry you cant award RCC there is a dog to return,even if it was a full gone conclusion i would have still entered. I have seen a variety of judges do it some purely ignorant some just having a moment BUT the stewrad is there to ensure all things go

terrier puppy smooth foxie

puppy toy was the crestie who placed in grp

if one of our dogs was throwing up bile often we would be looking at the diet.

Look above at the order of judging

Hi Yes we gave him beef liver tea, forgot to add that in, and I credit that to him gaining energy. Should I continue to give him this until he gains weight? He is now having NeutriPet Gel...does this do the same as Beef Liver Tea? Be careful not to go overboard in the remedies & forget the simple milk aspect. You dont want the pup to be on a high & then flop.

just bottle feed & do both Everyone will have a different diet supplement & creation. We use goats milk with added cream to bond it & never had any issues

I am gathering yackets mum is a member of the pro plan club where you collect the tokens on certain varieties which can then be redeemed for product or items(crate,ezy up etc etc)

Exactly there are restrictions on bitches in whelp travelling

This is an area we stress to our puppy owners to check out,even with a our kennel clients we tell them to ask what there vet procedure is for after hrs because most dont do after hrs or they work on a rooster We use 2 vets one is manned 24/7 the other isnt both vets work in with each other though Most vets are now clinics which means exactly that day care only,in our state most clinics will take over nighters off to murdoch uni for night care without the owners knowing (we drive past the place ). In the past 24/7 manning by vet students was very normal but many have turned to clinics **Should add overnight care is not a ridiculous charge here at our vets

As your dog is from NZ you need to re register her here. You need to join Dogs NSW & then follow the process for an import in submitting her paperwork

half % depending on the price would be a far few dollars. If the breeder did say this considering the dog at present has no testes there that is a worry.,any dog after 6 months shown without fully descended testes actually should go on report Does the breeder charge different for show/pet because if what was said above is true then i would be expecting a refund once desexed on the show/pet price. What does her receipt for the deposit say??

Yep go through the bill & itemise. We had 1 puppy owner try & pull a swifty with spaying as it went to our vet as arranged as we where paying,they tried to add a few other items in the hope we would pay. Obviously this may not be the case but they could have had the bill done in such a manner for surgery only & private only. Not sure if your local for them but i would pay the vet direct so you get a receipt for payment

This is why you get all things in writing when they come back,vet report on what the issue is & everyone knows where they stand. You have done the right thing but dont have a nutual ground expected from both parties

Prices can vary so it comes down to what your willing pay & which breeder you like. Cost of showing again depends on where you live,how keen you wish to be.whether you want to show All Breeds or only speciality. Enty fees vary but between $9 $20 odd(speciality) catalogues $3/4 (varies on states again) Basic gear can be as cheap or as expensive as wish,very hard to say what you will spend. Handling classes again will depend on all breed or speciality.GSD club offers speciality classes & in most states there are handling classes or private lessons available

I would say not enough bulky food. GSD can be sensitive so adding food can be a slow process but i never weigh foods,i give what the dog needs & 800g isnt alot . For me with youngsters on necks 4 kg is a week worth plus mutton,dy etc. My show GSD many years ago would get a 2 cups of dry & up to a 1kg of raw mutton plus necks

Live opposite the prison & gunfire is the norm LOL

My old boy here is so special to me BUT he isnt cuddly BUT he is always the first dog there when feeling off or just tired. He will come up with his nose & say Hey im here for you & then wonder off which i just adore. I would say he is more clicked on to human feelings than my cuddly guys . I guess i am lucky to have a number of dogs who offer all aspects but my special guy is one in a million. Fran dont feel silly ,your post has given you a different appreciation to your dog that at first you may not have seen .

They offer thing is i think people confuse what bonding actually is, Bonded doesnt mean cuddles i. From what you have said your dog respects you.enjoys your company & is pleasant to be around. If you looked at all the things he does without cuddles you have a great dog who has bonded to you . I have owned many dogs of one breed & all where an individual,if i compared each one i would be very disappointed but its the breed that i love & each one has brought something different to appreciate .I dont want a clone . I think quite simply like many people you have fallen into the trap of expecting to get what you had & havent BUT from all your posts you seem to have realised you have a great dog that at this stage that isnt smoochy but a joy to own You have a new dog & a new adventure & by the end of the year you most likley have a giggle at why you posted this

How much dry are you giving her?? Made advice feed her what she will eat providing its good for her .I would gather she isnt getting enough food anyway. For example my 2 yr very active dog gets daily 2 cups of pro plan salmon/sensitive skin/half kilo of raw mutton/2 slices of tuckertime & about 5/6 chicken necks. He gets other things added but that is his normal daily intake.That at present with the current warm weather maintains his weight at 35 kg,the last few mornings he has been getting brekkie as its been colder so you could add another half kilo of meat.

We too wont take entire bicthes at peak time unless they have had there season. Last year we turned a couple away for the sepr/oct holidays as they would be/due in season & like already said one has to consider all the dogs in care not just that one. Any other time no problem. We ask all clients if sterilized & with bitches we ask how old & whether she has had a season.We dont mix but feel that is a question that must be asked as we have found very few will tell you they are due in season. Infact we had a case last week where they turned up with bitch at day 7 & also owned an entire male & both where booked for the same run.on the day could we separate please,Umm no as we are booked out. Owners ended up in a pickle & had to leave one & family take the other. Often people have 2 dogs & at peak tme if bitch comes in you dont have spare runs to shift them too
