APBT

i dont want to send my dog anywere, i want to get some good training done with ME and my dog, but at a place that dose NOT discriminate agaist breed, she knows the basics and is well behaved, but i see no harm in doing it

i was looking at there obed, to pricey and they only work with the dog and not the handler aswell.

not just a drop the dog of and come back in a few weeks, not atack work, obed only

im looking for something that trains obedience for both handlers and dogs, not just a drop the dog of and come back in a few weeks, http://www.guarddogtraining.com.au/html/ma...r_training.html altough they do not discriminate against any breed there price is too much. anyone know of any places around sydney?

my girl acts like she is starved even after a big meal all year round. ive had to learn not to give in to that sad little face.

"The shelter’s canine behavior assessment for puppy number 43063 notes that the puppy, “Approaches the front of the kennel seeking evaluator’s attention. Happily greets evaluator. Is sociable. Initiates gentle, physical contact. Wanted to be in evaluator’s lap. Moves closer for further attention. In evaluator’s lap playing. Wiggly. Leans against you. Bouncing around. Very lovey"

that's disgusting, i would of adopted him in a heartbeat. This BSL BULL SHIT LAW really needs to come to an end. sorry for the language but this makes my blood boil, and this is happening to hundreds of these dogs all over the world every day.

the american pitbull terrier is the one most commonly talked about when BSL pops up is becasue there a very popular dog. And the term pitbull is a name that branches over many breeds like the APBT, amstaff, american bully and even stafordshires, the other restricted breeds are popular among people, and not just your local thugs. i find that its more elderly and dog experianced people that own these breeds, or people who want the breed that is from there homeland so to speek. and calsonic is 100% right these dogs are just media hype and what i belive to be a passing phase, sooner rather then later i hope weather your dog is purebred or crossed with one of these resticted breeds its all comes down to responsible handling of these dogs, as like any other breed. and you wont hear much about the other resticted breeds beacue the genral public and even some dog savy people wouldnet know what they looked liked even if they were 3 feet away from one, its just easy to say the "pitbull" type dog attacked me

not really becasue i sed if there born befre a cirtain date you dont have to comply with bsl and that date is November 27, 2005

for bedding, straw not hay is much better then blankets and old clothes ect

That is incorrect , in NSW it didn't matter when your APBT was born, when BSL was introduced it applied to ALL APBT's and crosses ETA: Here's the ACT, it covers both restricted and dangerous dogs http://www.austlii.edu.au/au/legis/nsw/con...act/caa1998174/ Pit bulls owned before Aug. 29, 2005 or born in the next 90 days, are “restricted” But what if you get one after that date? then it states Puppies born after November 27, 2005 will be considered illegal, and must be shipped out of the province, sent to a research facility or destroyed.

I dont understand your question but what i understand American pitbull terriers that were born before a cirtain date do not have to comply with BSL. they contunie to multiply because of back yard breeding and american pitbull kennels that there are still plenty of around, The aim of BSL is to eventually make this breed extinct but this will never happen no matter how hard they try, All BSL is doing is creating more and more BYB breeders,

Thanks APBT, will do! I love making things out of wood so could be a good weekend job. Many thanks no problem, ive been trying to find the link i used to have its a great dog kennel and the way its's wind proof and insulated as soon as i find it il post it up EDIT: found it http://www.angelfire.com/nc2/uniquekennels...eblueprints.htm

ive looked into a kennel when my girl was sleeping outside, but i found a decent kennel to be far to expensive. i was given one for free and its great but still, even that was about $300 google how to make a dog kennel and there is some great ones you can make that are wind proof ect, could make it for under $50,

a raw bone is the go i rekon, healther and more beneficial then any toy, cheaper aswell

i would defiantly drop the breakfast meal of the science diet and dog cookie, maybe a different kibble or a fatty meat like lamb i would also drop the denta and give a RMB during the day. and kibble again for the night with the veg sounds good maybe add a few "satin balls" to a meal or two every couple of days as well SATIN BALLS This recipe is one for putting weight on an animal quickly, as some use it for putting a couple extra pounds on a show animal prior to the big day, or an animal that may have been ill and needs a weight gain program. It has also been reported that this recipe will help with some forms of hair loss, such as when your dog(s) blow their coat, to keep the coat healthy and shiny. This recipe is entended to be fed raw. 10# hamburger meat 1 jar wheat germ 1 lg box of oatmeal (uncooked) 1 1/4 Cup vegetable oil 10 eggs 10 sm pkgs unflavored gelatin 1 1/4 Cup unflavored molasses A pinch of salt 1 lg box Total cereal (2lb's) (You may also add a pinch of garlic powder to add flavor) Mix all ingredients together well, much like a meatloaf....put into separate freezer bags and freeze, thawing out as needed. It puts weight on in a very short time, not to mention the gloss in their coat. You can use it every day when they have a show to do and it does not produce diarrhea. It can be fed alone or with kibble.

my girl did this a couple times, it sounds like its the food that doing it, feed more before bed, then remember to take out for a few more toilet breaks.

this is pretty much it

good luck with it, tho have you looked into getting a slat mill, they come either electric like a tread mill or manual kind of like a mouse wheel, and they clip the dog in so it can run off ect,

its great food, very expensive and to top teh prce they put it up th other month, and was told they are going to put it up sonnish again

with toilet training, take him out evey 2 hours or so, the less accidents in teh house the better and quicker tiolet training will be, i dont create, but i restricted my pup to just one room of the house, and when no one was home she was on the veranda and she could not get out, but once you get the pup you will get into the swing of things.

i jsut use human grade fish oil capusles, pop them and squirt over food every now and then

ive only ever fed frozen chicken carcass, you pup will be fine tho, i just take why i need out the night before and put them in the fridge over night.

that's fine if its just a few tiny teats for training, just not a full belly. its more a a problem with breeds who are prone to bloat,
