Totally agree

with my first dog, way back in 1979, vets in my country town and in Melbourne that my dog went to, advocated a C3 every 2nd year and parvo on it's own in the between years. It slowly evolved to as much as possible every single year along with mutlidose chemicals every month for all sorts of things even if your dogs doesn't have a problem with fleas for example. Pump those chemicals into them!

exactly!

Unless a greyhound has been through GAP they have to be muzzled in public in Vic. I have never see anything that says Greyhounds are only Greyhounds if they have a tattoo. And of course they are microchipping them now. A Greyhound is a Greyhound and when I get back from the Sydney Royal I will be making further enquires to see if anything has changed.

I couldn't even begin to name all the crap you did all in the name of greyhound rescue so it's a big fat NO from me.

I have no clue what you are going on about with the greyhounds. The two I had when I was on this forum one was adopted and I am facebook friends with her and the dog is very spoiled and in a good home. The other one was also adopted and doing well how that is damaging the breed I do not know. Seems to me that in the last year a few more greyhound rescues have popped up and although they all seem to be full all the time it seems that a lot of greyhounds are being saved, I even referred someone to GAP to get a dog and they did and are very happy with their new dog. So you have me stumped on this one but if that is how you feel so be it I wont ever change your mind. I'll guess it has something to do with muzzles for a start. There was a thread last year where you were quoted from FB. Now that really isn't good enough Happy Camper - how dare you put other people's pets at risk. Fair enough I was going off the info given to me from a greenhound coordinator regarding a puppy. what a load of crock. My greyhounds are clean skins and have to wear muzzles.

Yup I understand and yes their choice and I also understand if they want to not forgive ever not my place to try to force or convince them.

plenty of shite and plenty of lies by Grylvr and just cause they changed their name doesn't mean they changed their spots. And we won't even go there about the damage done to my breed.

I like and use the walky dog, never used the springer. Keeps my 35 kilo plus dogs right where they should be. I use it with a harness and still have a lead onto the collar

no need for the lecture which applies to every driver on every road not just those that tow dog trailers. A simple OMG be careful nearly saw an accident would have sufficed.

Poor greyhound

whatever

And you weren't putting your own ego first? You were a first class.......long before you moved to Sydney and greyhounds suffered because of you. No real apology here, just trying to blame someone else for your behaviour.

Does Troy know you are back? Have you apologised to him yet?

I hope you are staying away from greyhounds.

Yes I did

Happycamper were you not Grylvr?

so what happens if he isn't any good?

I meant in relation to the comment - Because he's going to an Australian home he needs to be desexed. Maybe you should re read my post and not isolate that comment but read it all in it's context.

I don't see how there should be any difference if an agreement was signed and the dog was released in good faith. Rare breed or not, I don't like that the topic hasn't been addressed if the dog is available for rehoming entire. If he'd come out under rescue there would be a Dol meltdown about dogs being rehomed entire. While I was encouraging not to desex in case the breeder could help find a breeding home for this boy, if he is going to a home in Australia and the breed is not recognised here then yes he well and truly should be desexed.

No! A greyhound would not be a good fit, they like room to move, they don't like to run for 45 minutes.

you can't run a pup for 45 minutes a day. I would not sell you a pup in your situation, sorry.

I would hesitate to desex him yet. He could be a very valuable stud in the right hands. I wouldn't do anything until I had heard from his breeder. And being a stud dog does not mean he would not be very much loved etc.

doesn't matter, they may be able to put you in touch with someone who really knows the breed, are you prepared to export him?
