Dog Rocks. They work! You must buy the genuine Dog Rocks...the others don't work as long. You can buy them here--> http://www.vetnpetdirect.com.au/ROCK or at other pet stores

a little but the old bloke in the next street used to walk his two really old tiny JRT's,he would stop at the gate and have a chat and his dogs used to have a poo while they were waiting. I gave him a bag and from then on he used to take them but his wife kept giving him sandwich bags and his hands were so big he couldn't put them in the bag so just put in his fingers then had problems trying to grip the poo with fingertips I think his wife may have been having a go at him :-D

I re-use the bags that you get on the big rolls at the fruit & vegie section of the supermarket, if I run short I use the plastic bags from the supermarket checkout (when I have forgotten my green bags)

I get that impression as well. Also to compare old photos of dogs, not brushed or well presented to a stacked fully groomed show dog.....come on. The OES is a perfect example of that. OES do not walk around looking like they do normally in the show ring, that look takes hours upon hours to achieve. I agree Bjelkier, it would be interesting to see the dogs the earlier photos bathed and brushed. Regarding the background music, I wonder how much difference it would make us feel if it played music from Grease or Alice Cooper :laugh:

Hi Westiemum, can you get her checked for a UTI, Penny was doing much the same thing (but not on the bed) when we first got her, we needed to take her to the vet for some other problem...can't remember what, and was given AB's which must have also fixed her wee problem. She can hang on from 8.30 to 7.00 as I found out when I had the flu and we slept in. We also attached longer legs on the bed so they can't jump up on it during the day, made it more pleasant to get into as it didn't smell of three-westie-funk (aka stinkin' dogs) :laugh:

Have fun over the Bridge Tess, you are the most beautiful girl and have made many peoples' lives happy while you were here. Your work is now done. My condolences to you, K9angel, and your family.

Yep, I say thank you as well. Loved seeing the Wheaten and the Wolfie and I loved Homer the little Glen of Imaal Terrier.

Google Images show a couple of red (well sort-of red), but it may just be the light/evening sun. http://www.google.com/search?client=ubuntu&channel=fs&q=sarplaninca&oe=utf-8&um=1&ie=UTF-8&hl=en&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&ei=P0NTT7LABsahiQfopo30Cw&biw=1024&bih=582&sei=RUNTT-GJBIiimQXFncShCg

That is the best of news Bullish, wonderful news in fact

Maybe they asked the owner?? He was there after all. I dunno, he didn't seem to open for discussion when the reporter shoved a mic in his face asking if his dogs were dangerous :laugh: Yes he seemed to be gesticulating in an odd manner, perhaps it was the sign language for Arm-staff

There is a pinned topic started by Bilbo Baggins on swimmer pups in the Breeders Community forum. I found it interesting as I had never heard of the problem before. Here it is--> http://www.dolforums.com.au/topic/157516-swimmer-pups/

There is a yellow (they call her golden) female FTGH in the Redland Times/Bayside Bulletin...6y/o. spayed with papers. ph 0448882281 edited to add that she is probably living in the Redlands/Cleveland/Capalaba/Bayside areas

Mac sits at the bottom of the steps just after dark, looks up, and stares at the stars. He will often sit there for an hour dreaming his doggy star-dreams

These people seem to have it, last item on the page http://www.petnetwork.com.au/cgi-bin/shopping.pl?page=ears.htm

I am sorry for your loss Nekhbet, he was a lovely fella. Have fun over the Rainbow Skoota

Bummer, he had his shirt on :laugh:

Yes becks...."Hello, my name is Pharoah, and I am a Pittbull"

I too am sorry to hear about your little dog, poor you and poor her. I hope you don't mind me writing this on loading a photo, especially as you are devastated about your little sweetie, but it will help you to know that others can see how lovely she is. If you load your photos into Picasa, you can edit (and name)them there and then click on the photo you want and that photo will appear down at the bottom of the page. Click on that photo (it'll then have a blue outline on it) and then click the 'Export' symbol, a little box will appear with 'Export to folder' on it... there is a 'Browse' dropdown box...choose 'desktop' then resize to around 450-500 pixels. Go to your DOL post and down the bottom of your reply page is a 'Browse' button, click this and choose 'Desktop', find your named photo and click 'open' then click the 'Attach this File' on your reply page...it should load, then click the little 'Add to Post' that will appear and the piccie should appear in your post. Just check by clicking the 'Preview post' option

That is such good news k9angel

Those two videos were excellent Kirislin, thanks for posting them

there is one for sale in the 'Member Marketplace' http://www.dolforums.com.au/topic/232864-training-vest-size-12/

I am with Bow Wow Meow, they were the only insurance I could find that would cover Penny and Mac who were older dogs(7 and 8) when I adopted them. BWM would only cover them for accidents. I did have a claim from them when Penny got a pig knuckle stuck in her oesophagus...they paid promptly, it was classed as an accident/injury. I also have the two of them covered with RACQ as an extra to our house and contents insurance. This covers up to $500 but as the excess is $50 I only get $450 back....it is a great help though as Penny got a tick and was in the vet hospital over Christmas and then 3 weeks ago she had a lump removed from her nipple...RACQ paid $450 for both those claims (the vet bill was more than the $450!) I insured Daisy with BWM as well, as I get a little discount, she is insured for sickness and injury, no claims so far, she has an excess of $500 BWM cost me just under $800 a year, I do an automatic monthly direct debit which does cost a little extra than paying the full annual amount but I can always cancel this if the pi$$ me off, RACQ will only insure two dogs per household. I know some of the DOLers have no time for BWM as they have been treated badly by them but so far I don't have a grizzle.

Yayyyyy, Happy Birthday Charlie. Good Boy Good Boy! here are some singing cats to stir you up

How is she this morning Petermoore?

An update to this awful news: http://qpsmedia.govspace.gov.au/2012/02/11/attempted-murder-charge-hope-island/ Attempted murder charge, Hope Island February 11, 2012, 3:18 pm Police have charged a man with several offences following an incident at the Hope Island Marina this morning. Investigations indicate a verbal alteration took place between a man and a woman around 8am where it will be alleged the man slapped the woman in the face, before arming himself with a knife and fatally wounding her dog.
