Does anyone here know how much turmeric (daily) to give 6--8kg dogs? I have been sprinkling a little on their food, now the hair on their heads is going yellowish, I am thinking is is probably the turmeric though it may be the tomatoes (green, rotten and nearly-ripe) that they are pulling off the vines and eating, or the mandarins. I am taking them to the WHWT Club's BBQ-and-fun-day in December and really don't want them looking like dandelions :)

A little more info: http://au.news.yahoo...ed-in-qld-fire/ A Brisbane veterinarian says he was overcome with relief when he learnt firefighters had rescued three sick dogs from his clinic as it burst into flames. One of the dogs, a 40kg Rottweiler, was carried on a stretcher from the burning building in Sunnybank, in Brisbane's south-west, about 3.40am on Saturday. "Once I got there and found out the animals were ok there was a feeling of relief," Sunnybank Veterinary clinic owner Terry Martin told AAP. "When I was driving in and saw the fire I thought they wouldn't have survived. "The firefighters did a fantastic job. I'm very, very pleased they got the animals out safe and well." The three sick dogs were the only animals in the building at the time of the blaze, Dr Martin said. The fire engulfed a vacant shop, formerly a newsagency, and had spread to the veterinary clinic and a nearby hair salon by the time firefighters arrived. Eleven fire crews battled the blaze which took 45 minutes to get under control, the Department of Community Safety said.

http://www.abc.net.a...ane-vet/5000628 Sick dogs rescued from fire at Brisbane vet By Andree Withey Updated 10 minutes ago Photo: One of three dogs that was rescued from the fire (ABC News: Eddie Norbido) Map: Sunnybank 4109 Three sick dogs have been rescued from a burning veterinary clinic on Brisbane's southside, with one carried to safety on a stretcher. The fire started just before dawn in a strip of shops on Station Road at Sunnybank and destroyed a newsagency, veterinary clinic and hairdressing salon. Ian Moore from Queensland Fire and Rescue says six firefighters in breathing apparatus rescued sick animals from the vet clinic. "Happy to report we did save three dogs from the fire," he said. "They were actually withdrawn from the premises allowed to recuperate before being handed over to the vet staff where they're receiving further care." The vet has taken the sick animals to his other practice where they will be cared for. Firefighters contained the blaze and stopped it spreading to another seven businesses. Passerby Gurrie Singh says it was very dramatic with a lot of smoke. "Firefighters have been struggling a lot to control the fire. It was so bad, so bad," he said. The cause of the fire is yet to be determined.

Yep..I saw a woman walking two polite medium-dog mixes last week when a blue/gray coloured entire staffy ran right across the road at her dogs, she yelled "F*@K off yer mongrel"...that worked :)

A dog can recognise certain words that the owner has taught it, words like...sit, stay or drop. I am wondering how a complete stranger can shout 'go home' and the dog know exactly what to do. eta this example

I have a feeling someone is going to be in deep doo-da about this http://www.courierma...2-1226730330985 Sasha the dog horrifies Townsville owners after she is found alive 18 months after being euthanised Jane Armitstead Townsville Bulletin October 01, 2013 12:00AM Marianne Wainwright, with her sons, James, 14, and Harry Ward, 8, were horrified to learn their 'dead' dog Sasha was still alive. Picture: Wesley Monts Source: News Limited A TOWNSVILLE family who euthanised their vicious dog after it killed their chickens and mauled other dogs 18 months ago were horrified to learn it was still alive and attacking other animals last week. Leigh Ward and his partner Marianne Wainwright made a difficult decision to put down their adopted bull mastiff cross, Sasha, at Greencross Vets in Woodlands last April out of fear she would attack their young children. Mr Ward was shocked when Townsville City Council dog catchers called last week to say their dog, who was traced back to the family through her microchip, had mauled a dog and tried to attack other pets in Alice River last Wednesday night. According to the death certificate issued by Greencross Vets, Sasha should have died on April 12. Greencross Vets yesterday would not confirm the dog was euthanised last year and would not comment on details around the incident. "Greencross Vets is aware a dog in the community is being investigated,'' a statement said. "We are taking the incident very seriously and will do everything possible to help local police with their investigations.'' The dog is currently impounded at the RSPCA who confirmed the tan and white Bull Mastiff was the same dog through microchip details. RSPCA did not know whether Sasha had been rehomed or if she was a stray. Mr Ward said the aggressive and impulsive dog had previously tried to attack him and had the potential to seriously maim a young child. "We wanted her put down for a reason, it wasn't that we didn't want her anymore, she was vicious,'' he said. "When we were told she was still alive we thought it was some sort of mistake. "She should be dead ... this would have been a lot worse if she had attacked someone else's child.'' Mr Ward owned Sasha for six months before she killed two chickens, mauled their Jack Russell and tried to attack family members. "She should not be wandering around a neighbourhood,'' he said. "She could be a lovable and smart dog but she would turn psycho every now and again. We are an animal loving family and the decision to put her down was extremely difficult.'' Deeragun officer in charge Acting Senior-Sergeant Ian Thomson said police had launched an investigation into Greencross Vets. "We will work our way back and find out what has happened and see what offences have been committed,'' he said. "There could be a myriad of stories as to what has happened and we will carry out an investigation.'' It is believed the animal will be destroyed this week.

That was.. Greylvr or her husband, I think. He's going to be disappointed. With so many sites (most of them free), he's trying to compete in a market that is already covered. Why would anyone pay to list their dogs on a new site when they can list on Gumtree for free? You'd think some very basic market research would have told him that but.. But but..... in the info about him he said that he was an Entrepreneur :laugh:

yep it did Rebanne, thanks. What a hoot!, especially how you just knew how it would end :laugh:

http://www.abc.net.a...bunnies/4951778 Doing the bunny hop at Royal Adelaide ABC Rural Wendy Collis 23 Updated Tue 17 Sep 2013, 6:04pm AEST Photo: A pet rabbit waiting to compete in the "bunny hop" at the Royal Adelaide Show (South Australian Country Hour) Audio: Rural Reporter: High hopping bunnies (ABC Rural) Map: Adelaide 5000 Showjumping usually involves majestic thoroughbred horses flying high over the bars. But at the Adelaide Show this week showjumping has gone micro with high-hopping rabbits taking to the arena. The pet bunnies are coaxed by their owners along a specially prepared course, jumping over a series of five, 10cm high hurdles. Some rabbits leap effortlessly over the bars, while others sit stubbornly at the barriers refusing to move. Reporter Wendy Collis gets some tips on the "bunny hop" from self confessed rabbit lover Sandy Sangster who says 10cm isn't too high for a sporty rabbit. "If you get a very young rabbit who's just full of the joy of life they can levitate about two feet into the air, even higher than that, suddenly," Sandy Sangster says.

Already there are a couple of those Deshonko pups available I like your new studs T, their pups will make excellent Chrissie presents for apartment dwellers, they look as if they will be the popular non-poop teacup variety

I find it concerning that Deshonko Kennels have slyly infiltrated this site to cunningly brainwash the readers into purchasing the pictured dog's bear's pups cubs that will be available by Christmas. I thought that this was a purebred site. Hummm, now if it were one of these.......

Same result for my Lily. She was very distressed by her puddles. Stllboestrol has worked like a charm for her. She only needs one tablet a month now. The senior Whippet in my house also has incontinence issues. Propalin is working for him. Another vote for Propalin here. It is usually for females but my vet said it also works on some male dogs so we tried it on Mac (1/4 ml twice daily) and it is a miracle!...no wet-smelly Mac-tummy any more, no more washing bedding (and the floor) everyday, and the house doesn't have a dog-pee smell.
