whitka

Thanks :D

What's the best way to join DogVic? It's been a while since I was a member so dont know if everything is still the same. I had a look on the website but it didnt tell me much.

I forgot it was on

It's also near a certain adult shop so hopefully that scares people off ;) I was shocked, they had older puppies in those tiny glass cages and a couple big snakes in tiney cages

And what does it have? Oh just the normall puppies, kittens, birds, fish and small animals to the more un normal turtles, lizards snakes, spiders, mitchell's hoping mice. Apart from the animals they dont really have alot of anything else! Grr not happy about this place

Thanks Gayle :rolleyes:

Sounds good to me :D

Hi Whitka if you are willing to drive to Pakenham on Sat, stay the night , We are happy to help you & you can handle one of our baby Papillons on Sun Morning at the Berwick Kennel club Champ show. we have 3 in & only 2 handlers my third handler cant make it. Papillon babies are very easy to handle, :D ooppssss I should say any baby Pups are easy to handle :D PM me if you like I wont be able to go over that way until next month, but I would love to handle a baby pap ;) Thats ok RS

HI Whitka may I ask what breed of dog do you have now???? & what breed are you thinking of getting to show??? I have a Golden Retreiver, we used compete in trials. My next breed will be an Australian Sheperd but there are alot of breeds that I love. Ahh that's right, around Bairnsdale? If you are ever up this way give me a buzz, the next show I am at is the 6/3 you could handle one of mine.......there is usually no competition so no stress about not doing it right Im in Sale I am going to try and get up to KCC Park just have to overcome my sookiness when it comes to driving

Thanks SpikesPuppy I've been practiceing with my boy much to his disgust but I have no idea if im doing a good job or not

Ok But I think i'll need to lern how to handle a show dog first I just kept on turning up to shows where people I know were showing and taking pictures for them. It eventually turned into me getting my own show girl in the middle of last year. There's not alot of a shows around here and im just not in a postion where i'll be to get my own show dog for at least another couple of years. Im about 2 and a half hours from KCC park. I'd love to give handleing a go. It would be good practise for when I actaully get my own show dog

I've been thinking about this for a while and I really want to get into showing or at least give it a go. Only problem is I dont have a dog to show nor will I be able to get one for a while I have competed in Obeidence and Agility trials. So are there any options for those like me?

I'll do my best!

Do you know who is judging? M I have no idea i'll just be there watching.

TN come to Sale so I can fineally meet a Lappy

Anyone coming to Sale to do the test?

My golden gets called maremma all the time which I find strange because I didnt think alot of people knew what a maremma was

I love Aussies and they will be my next dog but I am really starting to fall for Standard Poodles :D

I thought I would put one in here this year and see how I go. My goal this year is simlpy to just get back into training!

My two were diagonised (sp?) with kennel cough last Saturday and tomorrow morning they have there last lot of anitbotics. We have kept them at home for the week and they have stopped the coughing so was wondering if it would be safe to take them for a walk?

Is there anywhere I can go to which is close to Gippsland?

Yeah Toby, he's a Golden Retriever I would love to give it a go with him he seems to be really interested in sheep.

Are non herding breeds allowed to give it a go? I dont mean trailing but go to training or herding clinics.

My boy is an outside dog but that's his choice, he just gets to hot inside even in winter. As for walks I try to walk him everyday, two would be to much as he is getting old these days.

What is NILIF and what does it involve?
