I am considering taking a job in Port Hedland and hence moving the Port/South Hedland and reading a few things on the net I am after some advice on living with my Border Collies in the Pilbara. From what I have read ticks are REALLY bad and I currently only have mine on Advantix. Some sites are saying the dogs will suffer really badly in the heat (maybe a benefit I am looking at moving in June/July) and that worms are also a real problem. Any one living in the area...advice would be appreciated.
From what my research has shown is that there seems to be a good vet practice there and a dog club for obedience and agility. Any comments on these would also be appreciated as my 14 month older Border is a mid ranked in his obedience training and also about to start agility here on the east coast. Also, does anyone think I am insane for planning on driving from Sydney to Port Hedland with the dogs as the older one has never flown??
Comments appreciated
