I wormed 1 of our dogs twice in 1 day . She snatched her brothers dose out of my hand as it was wrapped in mince. She had no adverse effects, not even the runs.

I'm definately no expert, but my Amstaff liked to try to meet all the other dogs at obedience, so I was advised by the instructors to try a halti. It has worked a treat for him & he is now listening to me rather than checking out what is going on everywhere else. I'm sure more knowledgable people will have more/better suggestions. :rolleyes:

I smells a rat!! :rolleyes: Sorry if this is for real, but....??

Nice post OzPit

What part of Queensland are you in? I may be able to get hold of some syringes & needles for you?? Will have to get onto my fav person (my Mum) :D

Oooh low blow

Bustam I am so very sorry for your great loss. :D :D I always hoped you would find your girl safe & happy. Run & play hard Mahli till your family meet you at the bridge

So very sad. :D But why is it, even when the incident has nothing to do with an APBT they still get a mention??

Think I have gone cross eyed & my head is spinning. Count me in!! Maybe after a few, I will be able to make some sense of all this. ;)

Looking forward to meeting you MellG. I'll be the one with no idea & a blue & white amstaff boy, & OH will have the one with all the droole. Bull & Zibby will be our 1st victims. I'm really excited. We don't get to see many other people with dogs because of where we live. I'm actually getting out!!

I have just spoken to the lady from the Ipswich club & we start next Wednesday night. She was wonderful to speak to & very helpful. So we'll be the clueless one's there. I can't wait, but come Wednesday after the class I think be thinking differently. Thanks to all for your help.

The ipswich club might be the way to go. Its about 2hrs from me but only about 1/2hr from OH work, so that should work out well. I'll give them a call. I spoke to the lady from Toowoomba & I wasn't overly impressed by her at all. She likes to make you feel stupid, which didn't really bother me as that's a fairly normal feeling for me anyway. She has no people skills which is probably why she has been able to train 6 GSD's without using a single treat.

Thanks for all your help. I think I'll try the Lockyer club, I don't really want to wait for two months before I can start.

I live near Milmerran but OH works in Bris during the week so I wouldn't mind meeting somewhere in between so he can come along too. What time is the Lockyer meet on? I used to live at Glenore Grove. Sorry, can't read just realised yo don't actually go to the club in Laidley. I can find the details. Thanks so much for your help.

Thanks so much Wylie. If I can't get to Toowoomba I will try the Lockyar Valley club. Very much appreciate your help.
