Hey it was a learning experience and one I wont make again. I never thought in my mind that the neighbors would kick up a stink. Although I am a live and let live type person but hey they started it so they will be getting nice visits from the council because I am tired of listening to their dog bark all day. So they either shut their dog up or they deal with the rangers. How they can complain about dogs that never barked, we not outside unless supervised and only to play and potty is beyond me but we will see how they like the rangers knocking on their door because their dog is a small yappy dog that barks all day You would be better off putting your energy into learning about greyhounds and looking into laws, regulations and best practices than wasting your time on retribution. Council will require you to provide detailed evidence before they take action on a complaint like that. Other than that, all they will do is inform the dog owners that somebody has made a complaint about them. I thought you were moving anyway? Live and let live only applies when you act within the law. Council permission is required in most areas of Victoria to have more than two dogs. Actually its 3 dogs we can have here per the ranger that we talked too. they possibly objected to you taking the greyhounds out to play in the middle of the night cause they wouldn't settle as per your FB page. Your above post certainly shows what type of person you really are. Lol if taking the dogs out to run around is a crime sue me. These dogs dont bark, a 10 minute zip around the yard is hardly disturbing. I guess it is less disturbing then a dog barking all day then getting let out at 11pm to bark some more. Not sure why you feel the need to follow someone on facebook that you dont like. Is your life missing something that you need it to fill? Soaps not giving you your drama fix? yeah that I dont like listening to a dog bark all day, waking up the baby etc? Horrible person to want to live in peace and have a baby that can take a decent nap on her bed instead of being woken up and having to sleep in my room because its further away from this dog barking. Once again you are showing your true style, it's always everybody else's fault. You should have got your permit for 3 dogs before you got 3 for instance. You should have done a lot of things but you didn't, so now you are going to take revenge on a neighbour who might not have even been the one that complained.

Best you check out your councils laws and bylaws and the state ones as well.

can't be Fu*king bothered.

We look forward to having another hound neuter in the ring :D

actually, as someone who has worked in a pound and held hundreds of dogs and GoD knows how many more cats, I thought it was a terrible reply. The people responsible for the animals dying are the owners not the pound workers. Terrible, terrible things you have said and it has me back there living it. IT WAS NOT MY FAULT THE ANIMALS DIED.

Jerry Lee time to put a sock in it. Thank you.

I have greyhounds, a large breed, I prefer to grow my pups slow. Puppy food can make them grow too fast. Everything is higher in puppy food. Protein, fats, calories etc. Lots of people feed puppy food, lots don't. :)

Best you ask your breeder. You should get a diet sheet or information before you bring your puppy home. After the puppy settles in you can slowly change the diet to what you want. Personally I don't feed puppy food to pups once they are past 12 weeks old.

The point is HW's point is an uninformed point. It's the uninformed point of those who think that SBT's are muscle bound house bricks. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Muscular? definately, but athletic muscular. Have a look at the video & see the ''build'' that is ripping the course up. Not only ideal. Pretty well perfect. Seeing is believing. There are plenty of dogs suited to the activity. The SBT is one. I do agree with you tho. Larger breeds like the GSD aren't suitable. They would struggle in the tunnel for a start. & the sharp turns would test them. It is a time trial after all. It's the smaller more athletic & agile dogs forte. you say HW makes an uniformed pont. So do you re GSD's in agility. I've been around since Agility first started in this country and I titled a GSD with no problems. At the same time there were several reg. staffies also competing well. Then you played agility with the breed/dogs you already owned/bred. As things have progressed and Agility has become more "serious", then yes that's when the BC's/Aussies/Kelpies became more popular. I have known people get rid of their chosen breed and buy an "agility" dog. My suggestion to the OP is get a dog that you daughter can cope with and enjoy, winning is not the be all and end all of anything. If it was I wouldn't be showing a greyhound :laugh:

I am told liver water is amazing at picking up tiny puppies strength? Liver water i havent heard of it before where d you get that from? Boil up a beefs liver, just covered in water, for 5 minutes then, once theliquid is cool give the pup a few drops every couple of hours.

excellent post Steve

actually you posted about your problems on another FB page, not on your own. As I said the greyhound world is small. If you had listerned and acted upon some of the advice given here you would now not be in this position. But no, you knew best and now the dogs are paying for it. The dogs always pay in the end. Please get over yourself! The dogs are not paying the dogs are fine. Yeah I figured a FB group would be a help clearly none with you in them you might be surprised what groups I am part of. No doubt a lot, you need to spread yourself out so you can maximize your drama intake.

maybe, maybe not, who knows. Do greys that are not good with little dogs usually get adopted? I wouldn't adopt out a greyhound that was not tolerant of little dogs. It is too important to the greyhounds to take the chance. This is going to sound really harsh but, for the greater good, I'd PTS any greyhound that is not ok with little dogs. They don't have to live with one but you must be able to walk your greyhound down the street without it wanting to kill the little dog on the oppoiste side. To me, greyhounds are up against it, though GAP, GSN, etc have done an huge job, plus all the other reputable rescues and their foster carers and the owners of these beautiful dogs. As a greyhound owner, even though not of adopted race dogs, I am always aware that my dogs behaviour is most likely being judged and commented on by the general public while we are out and about.

maybe, maybe not, who knows.

if what was said on FB was true then no, Greylvr does not have the dogs anymore. Ina is with another person/rescue? Lucky with a friend of Greylvr's while another rescue/foster care is found for her. Both are not cat friendly and Ina is also not safe with small dogs, not sure about Lucky. Lucky is still entire. Both have health issues from what was said here and no paperwork.

I read through, where does it say they've been moved on? it was on FB, the greyhound world is small.

Lucky has been moved on as well as Ina. As in they found permanent home already? no and not PTS, moved on elsewhere

Lucky has been moved on as well as Ina.

So you have had some problems and now both dogs are or have to be moved on?

I always love pointing out, before deleting, that dress it up however you like, you are still buying and choosing one dog over another.

I feed Pal Pedigree dry food to my dogs mainly Sometimes it's Supercoat or Bonnies but mainly Pal. It is the only food, when I had 4 greyhounds, that they would all eat and do well on. I tried more expensive brands but nothing suited all of them and I wasn't having several different brands taking up space. Throw in the occasional egg or sardines, occasional feed of chicken wings or necks and your friends dogs should do fine. Might take a bit of trialling to see what works best but you don't have to feed expensive food to have healthy dogs.

I just delete things like that and then often delete the "friend" that was sharing it
