  1. Awesome news! All great foster carers have at least 1 foster failure... It's probably a good thing that Tempeh reminds you of her feeding schedule given that she has tummy upset issues if not fed at the right times. What a smart baby girl! T.
  2. Mine is teething... she chews all sorts of things at the moment. I still don't know what it was that she threw up this morning - but it couldn't have been anything that could cause an obstruction - this house is definitely designed for having "inquisitive" puppies, and nothing scary gets left lying about. The only sure bet about feeding here is what time I decide to drag my butt out of bed, and when I get home from work. I do give the pup some "midnight snack" food when she is put in her night crate though - so she doesn't get all loud and cranky first thing in the morning. T.
  3. She wasn't always that gorgeous... 2 weeks old 3 weeks old 4 weeks old 6 weeks old T.
  4. OK - after being totally slack about getting photos of Harper, I had a chance to do so today... and... ummm... she's grown a bit... ... and a couple with her brother Rex... he's smaller than her... People keep asking me if she's a Dane/Mastiff cross because her feet are huge... even her back feet! She is as big as Pickles now, and weighs 13.7kgs at 15 weeks old! I've had Rotti pups smaller than that at that age! I don't care how big she gets, she is still my gorgeous baby girl! But I may need to get a MUCH bigger couch if we are going to continue to do couch cuddles of an evening... T.
  5. What a stunner - even when she's not impressed... lol! T.
  6. How about these names? Zen Zuri Tahnee True Sable Shade Shiloh Spirit <--- my fave Peaches Lani Lyric Gypsy Fable Dior Cameo Can anyone pick the person who gets to name foster puppies en masse on a regular basis? I have lists! T.
  7. I must say that my first thought when I saw the OP was that someone's been cruising the PR Facebook page... He IS a stunning looking dog though... looks to be in great nick, and I'm sure that his family are looking for him. I have a bit of a soft spot for the Bull breeds myself, and am saddened by the numbers of them that do end up in pounds and worse every week. T.
  8. I love Rogz Beltz style collars... and they have baby blue... *grin* The medium size is from 26-40cm and is adjustable rather than buckled. Oh - and with a budget of $50, you could get 3 of them and have change... T.
  9. Hey Alfie - come join us in the Rescue forums - we'd love to see pics of your new foster pup... T.
  10. I keep telling Trouble that if she's naughty that I'll give her away... but the naughty dog knows I'm lying... grrrr! T.
  11. If you are waiting for PR to send you anything, it might be quicker to check with the racing database... T.
  12. Regarding the heartworm tablets - go to your vet and have a heartworm test BEFORE giving anything, OK? T.
  13. (the following is a joke) Maybe they'd like my 7 year old Lab - her name is Trouble for a reason... lol! T.
  14. Don't worry about this particular pup MarieEvans - he's going to an extremely attentive and experienced owner. T.
  15. Awww... sounds painful... can you pass on a soft cuddle from me then please? T.
  16. Is Ina sick? Poor dear... what's wrong with her? T.
  17. Did you get any transfer of owner paperwork for their microchips? NSW CAR form is a C3B for transfer, and P1A for first implantation of the chip. You should have got at least the pink copy of one of those for each dog. The worry is that until you know that the dogs are actually in your name you can't legally rehome them. T.
  18. And searching for a size will? There are breed specific rescues and enough purebreds to warrant that AND enough breeds used in descriptions too Preaching to the converted here HW... I'd love their search to be better too. Just trying to proffer some form of reasoning as to why they won't do it... T.
  19. Greylvr, just a heads up, but neither chip number you have listed for your 2 dogs comes up on any register - do you have paperwork to go with them, or can you get a vet to scan the dogs to make sure they DO have chips and the numbers are correct? T.
  20. Until such time as Pet Rescue allows you to search by breed, I'd say it's a very frustrating place to start. I simply don't get that policy at all. Because most rescues are crosses presumably... so searching for a particular "breed" isn't necessarily going to find you what you are looking for. T.
  21. I'd still have to vacuum first... I have 2 dogs here who are shedding like there's no tomorrow - and I just don't think a microfibre rag would be up to the job... lol! T.
  22. Any day you want to put on a meet and greet, I'm in!!! I'd love to meet some more local fellow DOLers... T.
  23. The trick to getting a dog to use a kennel is to place it so that the dog can see all of the comings and goings from the entrance... if the kennel is in the back yard, face it so that it can see the back door... T.
