on 14.6 there is DOGS ON SHOW at Orchard Hills showgrounds All sorts of dogs are shown in the All Breeds Show plus there are competitions in many other dogs sports representing a variety of anything and everything. Come along, starts at 9am Luddenham Rd Orchard Hills BTW I cant see a reason why a Weim wouldnt suit you.

One day short of her 8th birthday we had to say good bye to our gorgeous girl Divani. Making a heartbreaking decision to end her pain after a spinal injury. She was one of those DOL dogs that many knew from my stories, but also knew from the show ring and my private life. I did a lot with this girl, and would have done more, wish that I had pulled my finger out earlier as she only needed one more pass to gain her Novice obedience title, and therefore earn a Register Of Merit award that not many Dobermans have. It wasn't meant to be, she went to heaven way to early. We bred her and she lives on by her kids and grandkids, all around Australia. Run free Divani - I hope heaven is full of rabbits so you can chase them all you like. I will miss you beautiful.

You will need to keep the dog off the new grass for a good month, or you can say good bye to it before it starts to properly grow

I had a litter of 8 they were all over 550g with one at 650 I had a litter of 12 one couldn't come out and died it was almost 700 rest were 430-550 My current litter smallest at 385 largest 440 At 2 weeks smallest 930 largest 1250 But all in all they more or less always doubled in size in 10-14 days. And mine are more or less as many kg as they are weeks. And they eat as many chicken necks in one meal lol. This goes on for many many weeks. Mind you my breed is larger

Congrats 2 weeks old and 2 kg? Wow!!! Mine were born at about 400-450g and were about 1 kg at 2 weeks. I recall that they roughly double in size in about 10days, so yours are giants lol I guess the fact that my bitch had 12 might have something to do with it :) Now mine are about 7 weeks and 7 kg, so all within what I had in my past litters

I have a spreadsheet. That gets updated with details from the puppy enquiry form that I ask everyone to fill in. This starts before the litter is born. I keep an email folder with all the enquiries I get and, on the spreadsheet I only put the names that I will consider for a home. As some people have specific requirements I inform everyone what I have and if I can provide them with a puppy or not. sometimes they might be willing to change the colour or sex, if they dont than I refer them to another breeder. As to who gets what puppy - noone really knows till I make my decisions. I come first, than try to match on temperament as much as I can.

There are two that are going to my close friends on breeders terms. and looks like Ill be running around the ring with them. The puppies I mean not the owners lol

Monelite Dobermanns 12 pups born 15.11.2013 5 black boys 4 black girls 2 brown boys 1 brown girl

MonElite Dobermanns litter due 17.11

There we go A dog breeding enterprise which has three or more fertile females other than working dogs or hunting dogs (as defined in the Dog Control Act 2000) and sells dogs (whether a profit is made or not); or They lost me at the beggining..... I have 3 girls - I would be called a commercial breeder.

Ive watched it on Sunrise as well. They showed the death certificate and it was dated September 2013. Small detail but I think perhaps the owner asked for it to be issued after getting a call from the pound? Also - if you were going to put the dog to sleep, dog you loved as she said - wouldnt you stay with it while it was being put to sleep?

Dogs are scavengers and will eat meat that is totally off. Dead birds that have decomposed, rubbish if they can steal it, they dig out stuff that the bury weeks before. So a bit of unhygienic stuff wont hurt them :)

I have watched about 2 minutes of the video and could only think - why are these dogs in the freezing cold water. Why are they are being filmed and where is the person filming them standing, as many shots are from up close. That is so dangerous! The ice could give in and that person would be most likely dead. Regardless of dew claw removal , right or wrong, what would happen if a dog couldn't get out from the water? I hope that person had a back up plan for getting their dog out!

Ive posted couple of photos in the past here

Like these? Hailey has the saluki look. :D OMG yes But as its not recognised and that coat would be a fault the fantasy dog would never win all my required shows. As for the longer coat on those dobes. - there is a possibility that the weim was used in the making of the dobe, so perhaps there are some long hair genes there. Or these are crosses with something longhaired, Funny how there are more photos of the non-black dogs there

My dream dog would be a long hair dobermann. Hair like saluki, and non shedding. :D And my dobermann with long hair would have a bomb proof temperament, be as guarding as my Furia (less loud) yet as human friendly as Rex was. And no dog aggression of course. It would live a lot longer than dobes live and stay young for many years. It would be a cute puppy for about 2 years, without the toilet training, teething and chewing on everything It would be a BIS winner at Spring Fair, Dobe Nationals and Easter show. Only once, Im not greedy lol And it would have obedience, agility, sch and tracking titles, WAC and ET. And when bred from would reproduce itself. I think thats it :)

Thats the same person that glorifies her possum killing dog. I wonder if she will be swapping her dog for a "new life" http://blogs.news.com.au/dailytelegraph/mirandadevine/index.php/dailytelegraph/comments/my_pet_dog_the_killer/ THE secret dread of citified dog owners is that the docile four-legged friend they have loved, pampered and treated like a little human will one day prove that it is anything but. So it was the other night when I opened my front door to find our cute pet dog Biggles grinning at me, with a dead possum hanging from his mouth. His attitude was all cheeky insouciance, like Bogey, with a cigarette dangling from his lips: “Here’s looking at you kid”. He wanted praise and admiration. Instead there was pandemonium. The mother shrieks. The door slams. The child comes downstairs and bursts into tears. The horror of it all. Exasperated husband, a farm boy, prises possum from dog’s reluctant jaws and chucks it in the bin. Thank God it was garbage night. Previously, our biggest worry about the possums which invade our garden each night to eviscerate our mango tree had been that Biggles might get hurt. Possums look cute but they are vicious little things with sharp claws and a feral disposition. You regularly hear howls from the North Shore cats who try to take them on. We used to tease Biggles about being a big sook. Little did we know. It was pure instinct that had our 18-month-old border collie-labrador cross pounce on that possum, sink his fangs into its throat and shake it vigorously to break its neck. It was all over in a second, ruthlessly efficient. For such a gentle, amiable dog, who has never seen an animal killed, or shown any interest in doing more than bark, here he was, by instinct, a perfect killing machine. The genetic memory of his wolf ancestors engraved in his DNA was ready in an instant to transform him into something we didn’t dare suspect. Now we look at him with different eyes. Biggles is a killer. Grudgingly I admire his hidden talent but it will take a while to warm up to him again. My dog-loving friends scoff when I say, today it’s possums, tomorrow it’s babies, but it does go to show you can never be complacent when sharing your life with another species. Who could forget French woman Isabelle Dinoire, the first person to undergo a face transplant – a face transplant she needed because her pet Labrador chewed her face while she was unconscious. At least the pet dogs in Oklahoma who feasted on their owner last week waited until she was dead. The woman’s headless body was found in her house two months after she went missing. Tulsa police said she had died of natural causes and her dogs had been eating parts of her body ever since. Ghastly though the scene must have been, if you look at it from a dog’s point of view, it’s a perfectly pragmatic solution to the predicament they found themselves in. Owner is dead. She doesn’t need her body. We’re hungry because she’s not feeding us. Presto! No malice intended. Dog lovers will be glad to know that, after the initial shock, Biggles is now basking in a newfound position of respect in the family, as swashbuckling hero. We know he was just doing what dogs do, defending his territory, and dispatching a creature he knew was a pest. But his encounter with the possum was a reminder of what Alexandra Horowitz says in her brilliant book “Inside of a Dog”, that the biggest mistake you can commit with a pet is anthropomorphism – attributing human characteristics to an animal. In any case, cats are apparently much worse. I have a friend whose sweet dozy cat by day used to turn into Jack the Ripper by night. It would disembowel possums and select some morsel from the steaming entrails to deposit as an offering at the foot of my friend’s bed. When she woke in the morning the first thing her feet would encounter was the cold squish of a fresh heart between the toes. Erk.

I can take a "3rd world war with a dobermann having its nails clipped" video for you if you wish :laugh: But that is not much of a help is it? I clip the nails. I have a dremel but like you found it to long to shorten the nails.

Id look for a house mate with no dogs

Ive scanned through the pdf file and notived that labradoodle and cavoodle are now purebreds. When did this happen?:laugh: Makes me think that the "purebred" list is not a pure as it should be

I definitelly dont mind

Id love one as well Pick any photo from My website - Furia

Im pro natural/raw feeding, so that diet to me is just horrible stuff. Every single little bit about it, except the chicken wing!

Im a show person but I like and appreciate working ability. My dogs are not to mess around with when it comes to guarding. They might sleep all day but you wouldnt want to be greeted by them when you are uninvited.

Some dobes are loonies some are not. Most are actually really comfort seeking and will overtake the rights to the sofa :laugh: I now have a grandmother that will sleep all day - she is 7, a mother that is 4 and is fetch crazy but will will be happy to sleep on top of me for 12 hours if given an opportunity. And I have a 12 week old daughter that is a total loony. I come back from work to 4 hours of power ever day, non stop. But I like those, and bred to get that. Her litter sister is in a home with another dobe and apparently the sweetest thing ever, plays nice and is just perfect. I rarely recommend my breed, I jsut said that it would fit your criteria.
