you may also want to look at the ACT journals.I was a member a few years back and the number of entire litters of all different breeds leaving the country was pretty damn appalling.No longer a member there so don't know if it is still happening.

You can't go past Mark. He was recommended to me by Bruce who is the head of the ACES scheme. You and Bonnie will both like him :) SASH is also an easy place to get to.

Unfortunately he hasn't had enough experience to second guess a vet. I sent him back to the vet as puppy's urine was deep orange and thank dog he got the senior vet this time and he gave puppy 12mls of fluid sub.cut, showed him how to do it himself and the necessary supplies and gave puppy antibiotics by injection. Puppy sucked the fluid up and has suck reflex again so things have improved massively. If there is a breeder out there a contact would be appreciated anyway

Never got round to requesting for breeders.If you could cross post I would appreciate it.I'm not holding out much hope for the poor little mite.he could bring the pup to me but it's a very long drive 4-5hrs at least.

Puppy has been warmed up and has seen the vet once already.I am hoping there is someone close that can provide the intensive care this puppy needs.Oxygen and fluids until hopefully puppy can maintain itself and antibiotics kick in.

Can anybody help a first time breeder with a sick 5 day old puppy in dubbo? 5 day old mini bully puppy that has been chilled.Puppy has been to the vet and sent home dehydrated. he doesn't know how to hydrate under the skin or tube feed but I suspect puppy's digestion is at a standstill right now..i have him calling his vet again but puppy is very ill and he is hours away from here.Is there an experienced breeder anywhere near him that could give him some hands on help please? Thanx in advance.

Puppy toilet with the artificial grass 60 aprox 67 x80 from the reject shop for around $35. Empty the pan and hose the grass off.Easy.I use them with my pups as soon as they are up on their little feet and they love them,they automatically seem to gravitate to them.

He's a baby BOY bull terrier.They are a lot of hard work and their determination and stubbornness can be extremely trying.. While their early history is bull baiting that's a very long time ago and they are bred as a 'gentleman's companion" .And that's what they want to be.With you.They will also run your life and your home if you allow it. It sounds as the his training of you is going nicely.He barks you go to him.I understand you have to because of the noise issue but from his point of view it works!He needs to go on the NILIF program or be reprogrammed with clicker training.Bull terriers adore their crates and he will prefer to be in his crate near you than getting fresh air. I would not give him things that he can destroy he will likely take it as open slather to rip up everything he can get his paws on.Put your energy into teaching him not to destroy things.Don't believe that they are stupid.It is their cunning plan to kid you into believing they can't be trained.

make sure you disinfectant the lino you picked extremely well before using it!

Good news.Wally has been found and is back home.Diva is still missing

My breed is notorious for retained baby K9's.If the adult teeth are coming through I would have them out immediately.Some you can get out with the pliers and doesn't seem to faze the dog at all but you have to be careful in case you shatter the tooth in which case it's a vet visit anyway.If you choose vet ask him/her to push the baby K9's into the baby's place.Some will fall naturally into the place the baby tooth has vacated and others don't.You don't want to end up with inverted K9's because of a retained tooth.Price will vary with vets.Cheapest I have heard of is $80 the most expensive $280.

It's a dogs life. Sad but with a happy ending.

Thanx to everyone who is cross posting.

Posted for Dave We had a break in at our kennels overnight, Dabews Wee Waldo ( Wally ) white dog with a brindle right ear and Dabews Wee Zoe ( Diva ) brindle bitch was stolen, could you please help in spreading the news so hopefully we may have them returned. Thanking you Dave. www.dabewsminiaturebullterriers edit to add picture of wally.Sadly no news so far.

Sorry to hear your mini luxated.I have a mini here that has the lens removed from both eyes.If you could PM the breeding of your girl I would appreciate it for our research.Unfortunately some people are still a but weird about having bred a affected mini so I don't want to upset anyone.As you probably know there is a small % of DNA carriers that luxate and we are still trying to find out why this is so any information on families is appreciated. Finding a show quality mini is very difficult with the size issues plus the bite difficulties and we hang on to those rare birds!I It's probably much easier to find a bully of show quality.If a bully pup interests you PM me.I know of a litter in QLD that should have very promising babies and they are only 2 or 3 weeks old so perhaps are not all spoken for.
