I want to purchase a double tank with heater hydrobath, consider any brand. Does anybody know of any specials happening. Many online stores do not include pricing on their site.

I am wondering if anybody uses a ray lamp and whether it would have the properties to keep a young litter warm enough when used with an open whelping box and a heating pad. I usually heat the whole room, but thought that this might be a more economical way without foregoing the benefits of warmth.

Does anyone know a company where I can buy dog trailer doors or alternatively someone may even have a retired trailer where the doors are still good. My husband is a spraypainter so he can do colour change if necessary.

Thank you, we shall see what we can do to make our own, now that we have a better idea of how it works. Doesn't sound to difficult to make, just more precission with size and stretch.

Can you tell me if the shade cloth is pulled firmly or left with a slight dipping appearance?

Well yes, I would have thought so as well, that's why I want to get instructions on making one.

Hi Murraydebbie. I can't visualize what you are saying, do you have a photo of that style at all? Thanks. No I don't have a photo, but the box has a raised floor made from eg shade cloth. I'm not certain how it works, but have heard people talking favourably about this style.

I dig a hole about a metre deep and have a large bucket with the bottom cut out placed in the hole. Buy a bucket with a lid. I use the chemicals you buy for human port a loo. Works a treat and doesn't smell. When the hole fills, I cover it with soil and plant a shrub, then go to the next hole. Cheap as and work great.

I am wanting to get a plan/diagram of how to make a trampoline type whelping box. I have an "ordinary" one with pig rails, but have been told the trampoline type is much better in avoiding puppies getting laid on and smothered. Can anyone help me?

She was 3 months when she came over, so I don't think that would be a cause. She has been here through our summer and winter now, so should be climatised, so I wouldn't think that this would be an issue either.

I have a 20 month old, import bitch who has not been in season that I have noticed and I have been very particular with my checking. Two of her litter sisters have had silent seasons, and would like to hear more about silent seasons and how common it is. They have already had two seasons. I have no stud dogs that could give me an indication of a silent season.

Thanks... I have completed the form and sent off.

I haven't answered their emails for quite a while, thinking that they would realise that the scam had be exposed and they would give up. Persistant, ferral little creatures they are. Anyway I have now blocked any further emails now.

SUPRISE SUPRISE.... the bank has just called and the cheque has been proven to be FRAUDULENT. But this morning still got another email wanting to know why we weren't answering the emails from them. Persistant I must say!!!!

These scammers are so cunning. Even several weeks later, we are still getting emails either demanding money or making threats..... funny thing is that they never mention the item, just the overpaid money. They even phoned one day, and we think arabic sounding, they speak very little english but understand the MONEY!!!
