Thanks,I had no idea,so glad they are all okay I can stop worrying.

Of course surely done so,I couldn't get over there road cuts every where due to flooding.Hoping some-one else may know more about it and hope all is well.I emailed Today Show incase they have an interset and follow up with a chopper & publicise.

I HAVE JUST HAD A EMAIL FORWARDED TO ME ,40 HORSES ARE UP TO THEIR KNEES IN FLOOD WATER AND WATERS RISING.IN A LOCKED PADDOCK,YOUNG/HEMMANT,TINGALPA ROAD, RSPCA ARE SUPPOSEDLY OUT THERE NOW, I'M POSTING THIS INCASE SOME-ONE KNOWS WHOSE HORSES THEY ARE OR CAN GET THERE TO HELP. DON'T HAVE ANY OTHER OMFO JUST PASSING THIS ON DOES ANY-ONE ELSE KNOW ABOUT THIS RE MORE INFORMATION OR HAVE THEY BEEN MOVED & SAVED???

Afraid I'm not a big believer in doing this. Leaving food available all the time can encourage finicky eating rather than a good healthy appetite for set meal times. Also, it can be hard to monitor the amount of food a dog is getting if it is free ranging. And finally, the food runs the risk of contamination if left out all the time. Far healthier to set 3 or 4 mealtimes and stick to them. Put food down for 10 - 15 minutes and then remove it. They soon learn that they eat when the food is available. Me either,only when not home.Some times can't always be there.Rather leave some food than come home to a collapsed or comotosed puppy.

Hi Tracey, Have you introduced raw chicken necks,legs,wings,minced beef,bones etc for main meals when you are home? I'm sure he would love it,have a look at the BARF posts,it is very rewarding to give them what they love & so good for them I leave out Puppy Optimum for puppies when I can't be home as they need to eat small amounts but frequent whilst so young so to avoid sugar drop.

Have a look for a "puppy school" in your area,call a local vet,they should be able to help you,in many cases they run one,it's not expensive. I have seen some brilliant transformations as to what they teach puppies & owners in weeks.

Well, any advice .......what can people power do?

I often wonder is it all about more jobs,seen to keeping people employed,more paper work imagine it,policing it all.This is what it seems today it is unbelievable,it is imo out of hand.Huh if it catches on the alternative Gov. would get on the band waggon........all about money."We" vote for who-ever & once in they do as they damn well like.Don't get me started

The site does not offer any information to go with the prefixes, it simply lists them. We do not store or save any information like email address, owned by, website etc. Oh! Thanks Sway......It would be nice if there was such a place to look at the Pedigrees Second thoughts what's the point in just listing them? I was hoping it would have past champion pedigrees plus present so one could look at the lineage etc I know one can go to "Breed" pages re profiles and if you are really lucky some may be filled in. Ummm did you take the time to read the purpose of the website?! It's a tool to aid people who might be applying for a prefix and are unsure if their ideas are already in use. ETA: You do know that the website is nothing to do with Dogzonline or ANKC etc? It's a site purely for listing prefixes. Sorry I didn't realise the purpose,was looking to purchase and wanted a squizzy at his pedigree

Hi Sway, The prefix is in there that I want to browse but there is no where to click on or open....just says previous page or home????

MMMM Madam,she does have that snooty royal look about her,my sister had a fussy one as well....same colour too.Mine won't eat the BARf commercial.Of course Madam would probably not like the ordinary barf either.........oh no it has to be the expensive patties. ETA.I certainly know my dogs I thought it was a Poodle forgotten it was a Spaniel!

They are beautiful,shame they have to grow up! I love them in their wraps. Well,my vet said the cabbage leaves are the best idea which has been advised to you yesterday.Now,there is an injection to dry up the milk,she said she doesn't like using it and didn't say what it was.....so I haven't been of much help to you today. She was busy so I didn't pester her re the name....sure all vets would know what it is. Lucky for you yours are a larger breed,if they were Chis at 2 weeks I would have had to bottle feed them......we all know how tiring that is around the clock!

I did notice they sell one for TAPE WORMS so got thinking does this one I now have not do tape worms,yet they say on this packet in front of me ALL WORMER for dogs,misleading & confusing,says this on the site also. It is important fur kidz are covered because I know hook worms do kill.I learnt that 2 years ago with a 12 week old puppy I bought,had no idea how important until she died after a week on the drip in hospital....dreadful long week.Breeder still in denial. Many many every day people have no idea worms kill,chew up the intestines. I had only had her home 4 days,waited 4 years for her.....whole new thread!!

I got onto Pets Megastore,lot cheaper here.I had to leave a message but wanted to ask what is the difference with Popantel & P F,the latter is the more expensive,does the plain P one worm for every-thing or not? For those that may be interested 10 tabs/10kg is only $35.00
