yes

and a couple of head shots, gotta love wonky baby ears :laugh:

Lovely babies everyone and I agree Mirawee, if I had a JR it would have to be a rough coat. So gorgeous Weisnjac. My new baby is Brantarby Wicked Witch, 1st show on the weekend at The Rock

if there are no ticks in the area why treat your dog with even more chemicals? My dogs have been up and down the Hume to Sydney 10 times this year staying at Windsor and I've never even considered subjecting them to extra chemicals.

I think the same as daily boarding as you still have to clean and disinfect the runs. The only thing you are not doing is feeding them.

If i Not to be rude but isnt that a little bit of cheating? Your dog has a problem which would preclude it from breeding and after rehab it goes on as an entire dog to win shows? If it's becoming more common in your breed and this type of thing is happening it's not surprising. Champion on paper = $$ for puppies. I didn't see anywhere where the dog was bred. Several years ago a GSD owner on here admitted her dog had severe HD. She was going to show him to his title then desex him.

Don't ever get a Greyhound, they live to kill stuffies!

Ok OCD is very much something that can just happen, occurs in fast growing dogs, greyhounds can suffer from it. Usually a simple op is all it takes to fix it. My greyhound man told me about it.

Genetic does not mean hereditary though. Breeders may not have ever had anything like this show up. Genetic things can crop up in any thing that lives.

Breeders don't make a living from selling pups, at least ethical ones don't. What breed? I have bought a dog that turned out to be a lemon ( so to speak ) and bred one. Neither the other breeder or myself set out to do so, sometimes sh!t just happens. I'd be asking to see the results of the health tests.

My backyard is divided up and I can put different dogs in different areas but I always make sure the pup/s are not next to the older dog cause they do fence run - alot. I do not need the injuries that can occur and my neighbours do not need the excited barks at 6 am! :D

I'd just halve the one you have making it 3.5 X 3. If most of the time they are free running they'll sleep in their dog run. If you have two 7 metre long runs next to each other chances are they will fence run and that's not so good for young or old joints

I think you have what it takes to do this successfully. And while I would never sell you a greyhound puppy or youngster, an older greyhound would be very happy as long as it was walked twice a day. I also think you should go an older dog whatever the breed. They are more settled usually and you know what you are getting.

for "official" results when you want to share them with buyers or breed clubs etc then get a vet to do them. Otherwise do them yourself

great!

is he sucking it? So very cute

Might need a new computer or drivers or something. I had no trouble watching it, was great. And I had a great day showing as well. What did you show?

And I wouldn't be allowing your dog to chase others either. The nervous dog are also entitled to have a space to run. Can you call him off?

my 2cents worth. I see both points of view. Did it hurt you to walk your dog on lead for 10 minutes while the older dog just pottered around happily? No. Should the guy expect other dogs to not enter or to leave every time he wants his dog to be able to potter around? No. Give and take.

go to a breeder, you don't get papers for petshop puppies and you won't know if it is a purbred Pom or not.

An allergy to a foreign substance can occur in anybody and does not require certain bloodlines to be predisposed to it. Apologies for "insulting" you. exactly. How do you know the breeder of the great grand parent is not out to cause mischief? Maybe they hold a grudge against the breeder of your dog. I am sorry your dog passed away suddenly and you had no warning but all procedures carry risks and I do not think your dogs breeding had anything to do with his death.

onto my 2nd entire dog in the house without any problems

I plait together 3 strips of fleece to make a tug toy. You could sew some round pieces together and stuff it with more fleece, easier to pick up and re stuff.
