I love dogs, but I don't like cats, no reason, just my personal preference. I love the kids in the family, but I can take or leave other people's kids, also just my personal preference. I would be interested how the OP knew the lady on the plane was an animal lover? Did she have a dog with her? As long as no children or animals are hurt, then I see nothing wrong with everyone making their own choices who or what the associate with.

Wow! Haven't Prices Change In 10 Years!
minicooper replied to Roova's topic in General Dog Discussion
My breed is Miniature Long Haired Dachshund In 1991 Cooper was $250 (I lost him 2005 ) , 1997 Mini was $450 and 2002 Rover was $650, all from Registered Breeders. I am thinking the time is right for another puppy soon, so I will see what the going rate is in 2012 -
What Is The Worst Thing Your Dog Has Eaten?
minicooper replied to dubbleyoo's topic in General Dog Discussion
When Rover was about 9 months old, he ate a sewing needle, complete with thread What followed was emergency surgery at midnight and two nights in intensive care The over thousand dollar vet bill certainly reminded me to be more careful with needles in future -
Just The Sort Of Drop Kick Bull Breed Owners Need Right Now ..not!
minicooper replied to a topic in In The News
I was shocked to hear on the radio this morning that this happened in my street! I have seen a man, about the right age, walk two dogs off lead up our street many times. My husband once saw him with the two dogs, plus a shopping trolley with about 6 puppies as well! I am not sure if this is the same bloke, but it sounds like it might be. -
Back to the vet this morning for another check up. The eye is healing perfectly, so no more checks for 6 months, unless something doesn't look right. I'm pretty sure that at 14 years old, we will be back at the vets within 6 months for something Thanks for all the good wishes, I'm sure they helped

Mini was back at the vets yesterday to get the eye checked after surgery last Thursday. The vet said the eye is showing signs of real improvement, so fingers crossed it heals completely!

Mini had a Grid Keratectomy today. She is home, and a bit sleepy, but not too bad. She has a course of antibiotics to take, and ointment to go in her eye. Fingers crossed it heals ok now.

My poor old girl, Mini, had a weepy eye for a day or so, so off to the vet with her. It turns out she has an ulcer on her eye. We have ointment that has to be put in her eye every couple of hours, but it doesn't seem to be getting any better. The vet wants to see her again on Wednesday, and he has said that if it hasn't improved, she will probably need surgery I was wondering if anyone else has gone through this with their dog? I am so worried about her, even the thought of aneasthetic at 14 years old is bad enough, without her eye being cut open. Any spare 'healing vibes' anyone could send her way would be greatly appreciated

I am no expert, but I believe that every house has to have a clear path to the front door (ie no dogs) Of course police have the right to enter a property especially once a domestic violence report has been received. What if an ambulance had been required? Should they wait for the domestic violence victim, or the perpetrator to restrain the dogs? Keep the dogs in the back yard.

thay are not new, they have been around for many years. They are actually Black and Tan Dapples. It scares me to hear that they are the 'latest craze' because if unscrupoulous people breed them to another dapple, then double dapples occur, with the many birth defects that go with it eta: my 8 year old black and tan boy's mother was Silver Dapple

I think the best thing to do is learn as much as you can about your chosen breed, that way you would know the questions to ask that are relevant to your breed. Once I found the breeder I wanted a pup from, (and once she was happy to let me have one of her pups) I found she was happy to tell me all she could about the breed. Her husband joked to me that once she starts talking dachshunds she never knows when to stop I waited 9 months for him to be born, and in that time we spoke often. He is now nearly 8 years old and we are still in touch. It was really a gut feeling that she was the right one, and when the time comes for another dachshund it would be from her again, or someone she recommends to me

Women Injured And Animals Killed In Overnight Fires (caboolture Qld)
minicooper replied to Boronia's topic in In The News
no words seem adequate my heart goes out to all affected by this tragedy. Godspeed the ones who didn't make it -
Thanks for the replies. I am not a novice dog owner. I am well aware of all the methods that "should" work, in fact I have tried most of them. I was really only after opinions on this particular product.

Thanks for the suggestion, but he won't eat anything too big. I have tried him with chicken frames and he will only chew for a little while, then leave it. I have picked it up and put it in the fridge until the next day and he still won't eat it, even though he had nothing else to eat. He has always been a gulper, and he won't chew toys, treat or bones for long.
