Yea I have to be careful over my GSD's back but her fluffy ears, tail and legs it works well on.

They get combing and brushing every few days and I use the Furminator maybe 2-3 times a month. Basically weekly.

I don't know much about this company or if this is exactly what you are after but you may want to try this website Think they can custom build for you. http://www.kennelsolutions.com.au/

They are gorgeous looking dogs I hadn't heard of them until now.

Aww Happy Birthday! The photos are gorgeous.

I use them but avoid large groups of dogs or certain dogs. Even when we go to the beach I try to find my own little area so my girl can have a good run off lead so we don't have deal with any drama as we have come across our fair share of irresponsible owners and their dogs. Even if I go to the beach with my girl and friends we find an area.

Sooooo frustrating ;) Yea check out your council website under local animal laws, might be some info there

My girl had the same problem when she was younger, she would drool soooo much and get sick. I was told by her trainer to start feeding her in the car and then once she was happy to eat in the car then just turn the car on and allow her to eat while it was on. I never drove around with her eating but just got her comfortable with the car and sounds and I have never had a problem since, She looooooves the car now ;)

I've had very similar emails as well hehe

aww poor thing. My first shepherd was stung by a bee and same thing happened to her face, she was given a shot as well.

aww hehe

LOL Love the photos! Only time my girl is completely filthy is if she plays with her friends and zooms through mud hehehe If she is on her own though she avoids, mud, rain etc

I used to get my girl the shanks but she almost choked on a part that came off the top so I make sure I get the ones that are solid with no cuts in the bone, if that makes sense hehe

Similar thing happened with my last GSD, she never growled or bared her teeth in her whole life and we were walking one day and lips were back, teeth showing and she was growling at a man approaching us. She has never reacted to anyone in her life that way so she picked up on something. Only time in her life she had done that.

I haven't done a Will yet but I know my parents would take all my fur babies with no problems at all.

That's shocking

Love the photo! So cute

aww When my girl was last in Doggy Day Care I was told she spent the whole time with the animal careers rather than the other dogs LOL She also mastered a way to get into their kitchen area haha She is definitely a people dog and needs to be around people as much as possible, not that she doesn't like other dogs she just gravitates to people alot more

What jobs can you apply for? Do you work in the industry now that you have completed the course? I offer it as part of my business and people I had done the course with had started their own businesses as Canine Massage therapists as well. Apparently the horse one is quite good (I have heard) and there is a huge demand for it with horses.

A course you may be interested in is Canine Myofunctional Therapy through National College of Traditional Medicine. I loved this course but it only qualifies you for Massage and not Chiro or Physio work

Yea I agree, I wouldn't be keen to put my girl in a kennel either just because I personally don't think she would get enough attention and the loud environment would stress her out, she is a big baby hehe I worked at a kennel that I left as dogs were not attended to during the day, the only time they had alot of interaction was in the morning during feeding and cleaning then left for the remainder of the day until dinner time feeding. As Oakway said though, in a well run kennel there will be things going on all day. Just make sure you inspect anywhere you are considering

so exciting I still remember the wait when I got my girl, seemed to go on forever. Photos are adorable!

That is something I come across alot, A lot of people think the day entails just playing with cute animals but there are other things including ALOT of cleaning. In saying that though I love the industry I am in but definitely be prepared for hard work. The courses I have done in Animal care have been challenging but in saying that I thoroughly enjoyed them

Definitely try to get any volunteer work you can, that is how I got into the industry as well as doing courses in Animal Care.

I don't want to know what I spent on my Shepherd haha
