  1. I live an hour east of Brisbane Dancinbcs (by the way you forgot to add the 'g' in your siggie :-D ) check out the Southern Moreton Bay islands http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_Moreton_Bay_Islands and we didn't flood in the Brizzie floods either (and I know that last sentence is grammatically bad bad bad )
  2. ''just'' is a good thing. Chicken frames (carcasses) are excellant dog food - wish they'd sell them whole as cheaply as they sell them minced The Lenards I get mine from only charges 30c a frame, or $1.25 a kilo for them minced...Its a bit of a drive from where I live but lately Ive been working right next door, its great! and the staff are so friendly, they never make you feel bad for just buying dog stuff there What Lenards shop do you go to GoldenGirl?..I did ask at the one at Victoria Point about turkey products and what went into their pet mince but the spotty youth at the counter was a bit of a knob and didn't know (more interested in his mobile phone messages). I go to Capalaba Petfoods, they have chicken-wing mince there which the dogs love and they (petfood shop, not the dogs) got me in a big box of turkey necks (Ingam human-grade) that I will mince up today (if the mincer I bought off ebay arrives)
  3. Zoo reveals rare red panda cubSource: ABC News Published: Friday, April 8, 2011 2:47 AEST Expires: Thursday, July 7, 2011 2:47 AEST Sydney's Taronga Park Zoo shows off its newest male red panda cub named Seba, which means reward in Nepalese. (turn the sound on) http://www.abc.net.au/news/video/2011/04/08/3186257.htm
  4. Metal frame. even better...do you have or can you borrow an angle grinder...works a treat
  5. just cut the legs shorter on the bed Sheridan
  6. A set of three-month old twin black bear cubs are being taken care of by keepers at a Chinese wildlife park after being abandoned by their mother. http://www.abc.net.au/news/video/2011/04/02/3180645.htm
  7. Does Pinetarsol contain coal tar as well? or am I getting it completely confused with another product (shouldn't have drunk that second glass of red methinks )
  8. don't fuss yourselves about jazzy4, peeps, she/he is being a tool and want to sh*t-stir...just ignore them and they will go away
  9. Yep, they do have the paws up with my lot as well LWC...Penny buried her head in it and had a snooze, probably made her dream of an old dried up rat. They are hanging on the line airing...she may like the smell but we don't.
  10. You said in one of your posts jazzy4 that "i will continue to rid my house of these pest, same goes for snakes", perhaps if you let a friendly carpet snake live at your place there would be no rats or mice just a thought :D Snakes are my friends
  11. well you are lucky MavericksMission, it smells much the same as when a gecko has been squashed in the sliding window and sort-of mummified and you open the window a week later...that sort of smell
  12. My two dog beds arrived today, they are ok BUT I think there is a dead rat/lizard/mouse in the crate that holds all the petbeds...they smell a bit off, perhaps that is why they are a good price! Never mind, I've hung them on the line to air (though the dogs didn't mind the smell )
  13. Thanks for that..I have been on-line searching and found this site which is cheaper than your linkie Sheridan http://www.ranchmans.com.au/Cowboy_Magic_D...l_p/cbm3600.htm shipping is $10 (I think they could do better than that!) The vet shed has it at $24.65 + $6.50 postage Peperone Pet Supplies sell 'The Stuff' Sheridan,but it has silicone it in, which works ok but I don't like the feel of it http://www.peperonepetsupplies.com/contents/en-us/d18.html I reckon I will buy some Cowboy Magic, if it repels dirt it may make Mac's pee run off his skirt instead of staying there stinkin' (sometimes a 'no sense of smell' can be a bonus) 'The Stuff' is used on horses as well and when I was doing a search I came across a person who uses Mr Sheen on her horses tail
  14. Does anyone know where I can buy this product on-line and doesn't cost a fortune. It's an ok product and has a delicate perfume (some others I have used work ok, but the perfume stinks up the house) or...perhaps a suggestion on another product that has a mild perfume, I had checked some out in a B&M shop and many smelt like cats pi$$
  15. O good...perhaps that means I could get more Westies, though my little guys prefer killin' rats
  16. If you live in a country area sometimes it is a good idea to use a live-catch cage/trap as you can check if you have caught a house-mouse rather than a little native mouse Brown Antechinus ----> http://australianmuseum.net.au/Brown-Antechinus/ and these cuties ---> http://www.oceanwideimages.com/categories.asp?cID=448 Dirty Stinkin' House Mouse ---> http://australianmuseum.net.au/House-Mouse and---> http://www.ozanimals.com/Mammal/House-Mous...s/musculus.html
  17. Hi sheridan, perhaps try these three Hill BD suppliers, they may have some in stock http://www.vetnpetdirect.com.au/HPDCB-D#HP...nine+b+d+7+98kg http://www.thevetshed.com.au/product_info....nine+B+D+7+98kg http://www.aussiepet.com.au/hills-prescrip...Diet+Canine+b+d I have bought stuff from the first two suppliers and they are pretty good to deal with but I have not bought anything from Aussie pet It's expensive compared with home-made barf isn't it, but if it does the job it is well worth it I reckon. I'm glad your little Mac is doing ok Westiemum, I hate it when they get older, it means we will have less time to spend with them...bit of a bugger really.
  18. Here ya go...a humane cage for sale on quicksales (used to be oztion) http://www.quicksales.com.au/buy/auction.a...itemid=11552446 once you have caught the little bugger you can let it go waaaaaaaaay up the road in some long grass so it can have somewhere to hide
  19. Contact DOL member Nicestman77 he sometimes has reconditioned clippers for sale and is pretty helpful, if you leave your phone number he will return your call (he has skype) here is the DOL link for his user/profile http://www.dolforums.com.au/index.php?showuser=8666
  20. Source: 7pm TV News QLD Published: Thursday, March 24, 2011 7:26 AEST Expires: Wednesday, June 22, 2011 7:26 AEST Queensland's so-called ugliest dog 'Chompy' has found a new home. View Transcript http://www.abc.net.au/news/video/2011/03/24/3173153.htm
  21. From correspondents in Boston: A WOMAN who thought her beloved dachshund was gone forever after a fire destroyed her apartment a month ago has found the pet living in the wreckage of her burned-out home. Terisa Acevedo moved in with relatives after the February 23 fire. She returned to the apartment on Tuesday after her landlord asked her to turn off the alarm on a vehicle in the driveway. The 24-year-old Acevedo heard scratching, pulled away the plywood covering the doorway and found the year-old pup, Lola. She says Lola jumped into her arms and set off a flood of tears. She says the dog was a little skinnier than she remembered. Veterinarians say the dog somehow found food and water in the home and is expected to fully recover.= http://www.couriermail.com.au/news/breakin...f-1226027119313
  22. I ordered two this morning-the postage was good-only $5.99. Thanks very much for the link :-)
  23. Penny, Mac and Daisy all have a raw chicken wing each after they have their tea in the evening...no problems in the poo department at all (though if Penny eats hers too fast she will huck it up then eat it again )
