The requirements to adopt: - Retired - Living in SA - No dogs, or council approval for currently owned dogs PLUS the two to be adopted - Be willing to undertake an RSPCA House and/or yard check.

Due to sleeping in, we missed the Endurance Test this year and had two dogs entered and prepared. This year I'll be looking to run two dogs through it, possibly a third if the SA Endurance Test is after October 4th, 2013. Does anyone know when the ET will be run in Adelaide, SA this year? Thanks.

My concern is that RSPCA will say they did scan them and no chip was found. As chips can move.

The risks associated with Aborting Litters these days are very minimal/rare. You agreed to the Code of Ethics, I think you should adhere to them.

Council registrations I assume you mean It just said ""Registration Figures", probably council regs, but possibly microchipping regs? Actually; I think if it were based on Microchips it would tell a different story.

When the tennis ball rolls under the gate. When the net/basket/football goes flat.

How did they come up with these stats?? ETA: Based on registration figures.

Slightly off topic, but my bitch was scored aged 2 - 8-9 weeks after her season and those results were pretty standard and not as good as I was expecting. If I were to re x ray and score her (aged 3.5), when should I do it? She has puppies now who are fourteen weeks old.

There are five puppies in that picture, only two of them don't face terrible futures. I wonder what the actual stats are in comparison. Sadly; I don't think it would be too far off.

Woo!!! Go Ash!

Just noticed on FB I guessed correctly, hehe.

CONGRATULATIONS LP and Zara! Way to go with the timing and ease of whelping! It's always so stressful when everything goes right, let alone if something goes wrong.

This is not good at all! And against ANKC rules!! Those poor puppies, I just hope their new owners know what they may be in for.

I wouldn't. They may be guaranteeing the product's safety, but if it turns out harming your bitch and litter you can best your arse they'll only refund the product purchase price, not all your hand work, stud fee, ultrasounds, special food, etc.

That's been what I've been looking at here, except with Aussie Shepherds.. Poor dogs don't stand a chance.

C2i Vaccine at six weeks, microchips done then if not done sooner.

Is the area you walk your dog in an off lead area?

Please don't give that dog the opportunity to ever hurt someone again. There's no way that dog was playing, that was a serious life threatening attack and the dog needs to be put to sleep to protect others. The dog's owner failed to safely contain it, what's to stop him from doing it again? You. Please report it.

My girl cycled every 3 months, and successfully whelped a good sized litter. Puppies are nine weeks old today and she still has yet to come in. :)

awww you really have got a smiling dog. None of mine do this but I remember the first time I saw a dog do it, it was one of my family dogs when I was a kid and initially I thought he was snarling, but I was dog savvy enough to realise it didn't fit in with his behaviour at the time, so quickly realised he was smiling at me. I have friends who bred a greyhound who used to do it, he raced as Grinner. Grinner is the cue we use to have her smile. She has 8x 8week old puppies at the moment and most of them are grinners too. :)

For those of you who would like a video of her smiling, there are two here :D https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=227704827286811&set=vb.100001418870999&type=3&theater https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=227703560620271&set=vb.100001418870999&type=3&permPage=1

These are Alice - Australian Champion Mysql Winning Colours (IID). My beautiful Australian Shepherd girl.

Why are you breeding a litter which you do not plan to keep a puppy from?

PP60 would fit, contact Wayrod. :) He's really good for flights. :)
