Tintin Jac

Goodbye to another DOL legend RIP beautiful, funny Lola

So.....here's another reason I need to make sure I come in here more often! Just saw a photo of Autumn on FB and came here hoping for more. She is absolutely gorgeous! Updates and more photos due I think

Oh my gawwwwwd!!!!! Look what happens when I disappear from DOL for months Starkehre, your new puppy family is just divine. I remember meeting Seven when she was a little (well, little in Rotty world) pup. You were rightly chuffed with her and were excited about her being a mum one day. And what an absolutely amazing start to life you have given to her beautiful pupsl. You truly are an amazing person who is so obviously passionate about your beautiful dogs and your responsibility as a breeder. If you need any strangers popping in...I would be more than happy to help out...if I haven't missed the boat already. I hope you have a relaxing, peaceful holiday coming up soon! It has been so long since I have been here that I didn't know about Dyzney. I am so sorry. She was a DOL favourite and I know how much she meant to you

I agree with the discussion re traits. If you want something similar in nature to a lab x poodle,a Lagotto wouldn't fit the bill. They often look similar but a LR is very different to most labs. megan_ you need to meet our LR - he is a human and dog lover! It was this site, actually, that led to us getting a LR. I came here looking for a x breed and found this site to be so helpful and informative. I quickly realised that I needed to really look at what we were looking for in a dog and which breeds may or may not suit. We are so happy to have found our beautiful boy.

Yay Pudding Now don't go munching on any more hideous delicacies or DOL will come after you

What an awful experience! I hope they all continue to improve. You poor thing...please don't beat yourself up about it.

Thornit used to be available from Whelping Supplies (Sway) in Australia. Tintin got a few bouts of ear problems (yeast infection from memory). Thornit was recommended on a Lagotto fb page. I'm not sure how it works but it has been great for him. I still have my original bottle and use it rarely now. If anyone nearby (Morn Pen, Vic) would like to try before buying, you are welcome to have some of mine. ETA I, too, have been told that it deals with mites...the vet said Tintin didn't have mites or any evidence of them but the thorny worked. Maybe just a little magic

Keep trying :laugh:

Thanks T. Yes, I miss MUP. I really don't know about all her work but she seemed to always be working hard for the animals.

Was Hannah MUP?

Yay! More Lagotto families :D Lagotto's love lagotto's. We've got a 6yo and currently puppy sitting a 5mth old. They get along so well. Hector the cs has no idea how to 'play Lagotto'! I'm in Vic LuccatheLagotto so can't help with play dates ourselves. If you shoot me a PM, I might be able to help though.

I too have purchased from them and found them to be prompt and efficient. Now that you know of several people who have had positive dealings with them, I think you just need to get in contact when they are back on board after their break. I am sure there must be a reason your order hasn't arrived.

I recently cancelled our three Petplan policies. One policy had a HUGE rate increase. I was unsuccesful in trying to contact them to discuss the rise. I figured that the rise was bad enough but not being able to get in contact with them was almost worse. It made me question what would happen if I ever needed to make a claim or contact them for anything else. In my experience, they have been appalling. I opened up a bank account and transfer money to it each month.

Enjoy puppydom RMS. As you know, it can be hard work but having a puppy around has a tendency to put a smile on your dial! We had a young puppy stay with us for a week a couple of weeks ago. Am now feeling very puppy maternal. I hope you and Hugo enjoy puppy school at Sit Happens. The staff are lovely and really know what they are doing.

Proof please...pics are required! Welcome to the wonderful world of Lagotto's :) Ours is nearly 6yo but we just had a LR puppy stay with us for a week and she was such fun to have around. They are such super fast learners. I agree with what raineth has mentioned - lots of short grooming practice sessions is a great idea. Also have a look at the pinned threads in the Puppy Problems forum. There is some fantastic advice in there. Have lots of fun with Lucca :D
