Rainy

Thanks that's perfect

Hi, I'm on the m7 getting on the m2 heading to sash north Ryde I need somewhere to stop and strech the legs for me and diesel any ideas? Thanks

Well we returned to the vet this morning and his eye was worse so im getting ready to go to SASH now and have the op, either this afternoon or tomorrow morning

Sorry i don't have any advice on clipping but i have used Free Itch successfully on flee scabs i bath them every 3 days and spray twice a day.

Thanks for the info guys, there is about 10 lashes in a row on one eye and 8 on the other when looking without a microscope luckily they are fairly soft at the moment but my vet wants them removed before they become harder / thicker im tossing up between 2 Opthamologist at the moment i just want to talk to the vet again before i decide. I really appreciate the help guys THANK YOU

Hi all i still havnt decided on a Opthamologist yet as im getting slightly confused, some people are telling me to have the flolicals (sp?) frozen out and some are saying to get then cut out, opinions needed please. I had done a fair amount of research on the net and it seems to lean toward cutting not freezing thanks again

i use supercoat sensitive (gray bag) for diesel because its the only dry food that didnt give him the runs inculding all the high end brands and the vet perscription diets

Its definatly distichiasis the vet confirmed it this morning, i will have more info tomorrow when my normal vet gets back to work

Thanks Schnauzer

Hi all diesel has been confirmed with Distichiasis, Im now on the hunt for a specialist in wollongong, sydney or canberra. Wollongong is closest to home but i will travel to sydney or canberra if there is someone better/ more experianced, if you dont want to comment either good or bad in the thread pleas PM me, i want to find the best for my boy Thanks for your help

I have forgotten to feed diesel a few times he dosent seem to notice but come training time if i dont have his cube of cheese for when we finish all hell breaks loose :D

Hmm Im not sure if there is any particular breed that will definatly bond with the child over an adult, our stfford is definatly our daughters dog, I feed and do all the training etc but he is defiatly her dog. I belive they bond with who ever they see fit

thanks ellz thats what i was thinking of

I know there are a few topics about this but the search is not being my friend as i cant remember the name for it, can anyone tell me what its called please thanks

I havent used it and proberbly wont unless there was a severe breach of forum rules, i dont think i have the right to moderate/ police other peoples opinions, plus the fact i usually miss the drama and am left wondering what everyone is upset about

I get what your saying brook but, people need to realise that when talking to a group of people this large that your going to recive every opinion out there, if we all gave the same opinion then it would be pretty boring and not much use being hear, i replied to a topic not long ago and got a reply that i could have gotten upset about, and for a split second i did but one breath and reread of what i posted and the reply i didnt like made me realise it could of been taken 2 ways and that the poster took it the oppisite of what i ment, i could have gotten cranky or upset and abusive but theres no point they were just expressing there opinion just as we are all entitled to do. i love this forum and take my hat off to all the "behind the scenes" people that make it waht it is.

So Valglo(UK) and Koendidda(Aust) Crossguns (Aust) to name a few are unethical breeders? They have all bred blues. Breeding for blue is unethical, the actual breeding of a blue is not a hanging offence. this is what i ment Oh yes, done it myself too a few times too.............sorry about that. In one instance daddy was a pied Cradbury from the UK, mummy was a red Australian & New Zealand Champion double grand daughter of Aust Ch Toptaurus Cincinnati (sire of 25+ champions). Sorry im not very articulate so my words dont come out right sometimes, i think the people who breed for any colour is wrong when people should breed to make staffords better, i know a little about genetics and realise that things can just pop up out of seemingly nowhere, that is nobodys fault

Im sorry but IMHO if they were ethical breeders thy wouldnt be breeding blue at all, I think you should sit down and have a real good think about weather you want a quality stafford or a pretty colour

Mine is 36" i found it better due to staffords love of streching out and is also vebopet crate

I haven't got one but it looks like a good idea I would just have the problem that 4 large kongs would be most of his dayley meal but I guess they are graze in the wild so maybe better then one meal

I have not voted as i cant answer some of the questions. IME my males have been more loyal and affectionate, i wouldnt say they are easier to train but my girls were more likely to forget / ignor a recall they are called bi*ch for a reason LOL, i wouldnt know about obiediance training differance as i hvnt done this before diesel

When we moved we put diesel in kennels for the weekend moved then picked him up he wasnt phased as he is a pretty laid back dog but i rember others saying to acclimatise dogs to new surounds slowly, i guess it depends on charlie

Love the clip, i wish more people felt this way OP, could you put a language warning near the link so people like me dont open it with kids in the room thanks

Aww to cute

Would love to help but id proberbly be sh*ting myself the whloe way and have an accident sorry
