I have used it and seen it used, some time ago since I myself used it, but the friends I know with dogs on farms have hot wires on all their fences, including the house yard.

a couple of hot wires, to keep the cattle away, cause you can't use them on dogs, would teach them to respect fences very well.

you could buy one of those carriers things that tow behind, they are on ebay, type in dog trailer, and then she could ride in that when she has had enough exercise.

this is winning so far

GAP has plenty of greyhounds waiting to get in, all of which pay the $100 surrender fee and are happy to do so. Being cat friendly she would have been snapped up in no time. Would love to know which breeder she came from, there were no Victorian show greyhounds born May 2009.

I've only had one dog that pulled my clothes off the line. I tried many tricks but the easiest thing was to keep her confined when I had clothes on the line. She grew out of it by around 18 months or so. Miller loves to drag the blankets around the yard from the kennels but he has never touched the clothes on the line. Thank dog!

I did mine, day 2 or 3. Only 2 pups and much reading up and watching of video's to make sure I would get it right. My regular vet was away, the others looked at me like I was really, really bad for wanting them off.

I consider anything you teach a dog could be called a trick.

fantastic, I thought sure he was goner

that's what I have done, stayed home

because you can still see if the bloodlines are throwing good stock.

I wouldn't recommend any breed unless they have suitable fencing to contain it to a house yard. It could still roam around the farm with the kids but they need to be able to contain it at other times.

I wouldn't be using any lubricant unless you are 100% sure it won't kill the sperm.

well done to all who made it through to today extra congratulations to the winners

you and me both

Yay for greyhound Flick and Mel, her breeder. Flick is out of Mel's Layla, who was RUBIS at the 2009 Adelaide Royal.

my vets have always said you must test your dog before giving heartworm meds if the dog is over 6 months old.

maybe he hadn't got his scones?

The idea is to learn to read the signals your dog gives before your dog gets into the red zone so you can prevent it happening. Proactive rather then reactive.

your kidding right? You can't seriously be suggesting that a few scones and cream is going to sway a judge in their decisions? How do you know the handler isn't a member of the club and they were asked to take the morning tea in? :rolleyes:

what a cutie!

throw him a whole chook! I have done that before with the greyhounds when they have been on special

there is a bus from the airport to the main train station, Southern Cross, then train to the showgrounds. Not sure on costs or time but will be way cheaper than a taxi

greyhounds are in B block too, not that we have ever actually ended up where the list said we were going to be.

My dogs have done well on it, they don't smell and the poops are good.
