Oh I love this bit! Making out that YOU are in the wrong and feel free to use their T&C.. I don't think your going to get this resolved, I'd be changing your wording and be done with it. When I started my website, I obtained permission from all the companies I bought from to use their wording and images, not only from a copyrite point of view but just general curtiousy. It must be very frustrating for you to be compared to someone like that but unless your going to spend a lot of money I'd be changing my website so it doesn't look like you have any association with them..

Urgh the dreaded digging! I have 3 Greyhounds and 2 of them dig and one is 10 years old the other is 5 so don't think yours will grow out of it Mine seem to dig most when it's hot and they want a cool place to sleep but they also dig after their mad zoomies around the yard, they get a lot of exercise and have heaps of toys so it's not a boredom thing. We've tried and still try to put poo in the holes and cover them up, doesn't work though or they move their digging some place else so we end up with a yard full of dirt where the grass should be, the only thing we have found that works is to lay chicken wire or the plastic kind over the dirt and peg it really well in place so it doesn't hurt their paws, we use it on holes in the lawn too and the lawn ends up growing over it and can't see the mesh anymore.

Although I do recommend Studio Noah because their shots are fantastic but very expensive and we got them half price, when I was setting up my website I asked them if I could use two of the photo's that I had purchased on my site, despite 3 emails and 3 phone calls noone got back to me, I was quite happy for them to say no but I was hoping to get some sort of a response, plus I was going to purchase a gift voucher from them for a grand opening prize draw so they missed out! That's very disappointing about the book especially when it cost that much, they should have fixed it for goodwill if nothing else!

I can vouch for Studio Noah but yes they are pretty expensive... hey Jazzy, my sister got those Advance photos done too for her OES... did Advance ever contact you or use the shots of your greys? No we never heard back from them, I've checked their website but they haven't appeared yet, they did use a photo in their dental campaign but that was of Kerry at GAP's grey. They have allowed GAP to use some of the photo's for the calendar. Did your sis get any of the photo's? We got 50% off and they were about $90/each.

We had a photo shoot done of our Greys by Studio Noah (East Perth but they come to you or anywhere really) it was on behalf of Advance Pet Food and the shots are absolutely stunning, I can't rate them highly enough but they are expensive, and we didn't have to pay for the shoot (thank god!), they took 52 photos of our dogs, we ended up buying 5 but could have bought them all they were that good - www.studionoah.com.au Probably the largest pet store in Canning Vale is Better Pets and Garden on Nicholson Road, Canning Vale (if your heading down South street, turn left into Nicholson Road and it is quite a way down at the other end of Nicholson Road near the Canning Vale Police Station, Dogs are welcome to go inside. There is a City Farmers in Canning Vale but a bit hard to explain where it is and they are doing roadworks outside and lots of detours plus it's not as good at BP&G.

I hope your happy with him, he's excellent and certainly knows his stuff.. all the Greyhound people love him! Did you ever find the collar that you were after? Julie

Hi there, Greyhounds as Pets use Garth Jennings (Amrex Behaviour) who is excellent, we've had foster sessions with him before, he operates out of Perth & Brisbane - his email is [email protected], his link is http://www.pupi.com.au/amrex-behaviour.asp. He does all dogs not just Greyhounds. Julie

He has his own website?? hasn't been updated for a while, love how they are taking donations - aren't we already donating thru our taxes.. poor neighbours - you gotta feel for them, I bet the council is really p*ssed now. I heard that when he's in court he's got a roster system of people who are going to stay up there until he get's back, he's so paranoid COG are going to cut it down when he leaves it. Have to laugh, one of the adverts on his website is for a handgun safe! wft?

I worked there for 10 years but haven't eaten there for a while, for seafood head to the fishing boat harbour - Cicerello's has good selection of seafood. Forget Asian it's all Italian there, anywhere on cappacino strip (High Street) is good, very casual, good value, GREAT coffee! Have fun!

So City of Gosnells are good for something, then? Yes apparently they are very good at getting rid of trees Only if noone's sitting in it :D too funny! Unfortunately the tree man is fine and now has proof his tree is strong and won't drop it's branches - despite an earlier bullshit claim by him that he was struck by lightening. Nothing's going to bring him down now! Actually the tree's on the road were on Bannister Road, Canning Vale so that's City of Canning so no City of Gosnells are still shit! lol

Geez, everyone has been affected one way or another. I was at my mum's with the kids celebrating my nephew's birthday, my OH was at Cannington greyhounds about to trial dogs (thank god they hadn't gotten them out of the trailer) and took 2 hrs to get to Thornlie which usually only takes 15 mins, our streets were flooded and he had to abandon the car and wade thru knee deep water to get home to our 3 greys who were all outside and absolutely hate storms, can only imagine what they went thru, they were soaked thru and very very quiet. I was expecting them to have jumped the fence or gotten out some how, thank god our fence didn't fall down like next doors did as we back onto a park then onto a very busy road. My mum's place in Parkwood which is in a valley had rain streaming thru all the windows and was flooding thru the back door, kids were all crying thinking they were going to die, my car parked on the verge was pelted by hail and not a scratch on it! Her power only came on this arvo and then went off again at 6, no phone at all during this time. Driving home afterwards was very scary with two young kids in the car, no street or traffic lights, having to go so slow because of fallen trees across the roads, cars abandoned. Good work by the councils though, I went out early next morning and tree's had been removed from the road etc..

Hey Belgian Blue, I sell them on my website www.dogkingdom.com.au - they are medium size fit 13 to 18", I buy them for Greyhounds but there's a size chart on there. Julie

Yes there's a vet training hospital at Swan tafe in Bentley, they have GAP signs up everywhere outside.. It's one of the places that GAP send's the foster dogs to be their vet work done i.e. microchipping, steralisation, teeth cleaning and c5 vac

GAP WA have a couple of greys at various training vets, i.e. Vet at Swan Tafe in Bentley they stay for a term and then they get fostered/adopted out and a new lot go in.. In WA there is basically GAP and Greyhound Angels down Mandurah way, they are pretty much the only one's who deal with adoptions of Greys, they very rarely turn up at shelters here..

Your so welcome! Once you've had a Grey you'll never look back - but I am very very biased!! GAP organise monthly walks where all the dogs (& owners) get together in various locations around Perth and basically just go for a walk, you'll get to meet other owners and chat about the dogs, we had the first one in Mandurah last month and it was a great day out. They also hold Greyhound playgroups every Sunday depending on where you live where again the Greys can get together and go for a run in an enclosed environment, they have a great time but there is a heat policy where its not held if the temp is due to be 33 or over, so this summer there hasn't been too many of them! sick of this heat! You'll get a lot of support from GAP if you ever need it and forums like this are fantastic if you ever want to know anything beware though, they sleep ALL the time! Julie
