MavericksMission

Not long now! I really should get some sleep, but I am sooooo wide awake. I have held off telling Mav & Hector as they will not be able to sleep either!

It is probably not the correct way but.. When I am at the zoo, I have my camera on AV setting, I get as close to the subject as physically possible and then I then manually focus. Works for me, I am sure that to DOL gurus will have plenty of tips for you tho! For Example: This photo was taken through the bars/cage wire at the zoo. You can faintly see where the bars are meant to be, but it looks much better than full blown bars

even cheaper here :D http://www.dwidigitalcameras.com.au/store/...sp?idProduct=30 Thanks Kirislin!

Thanks Firestone! I will go have a read

Neither did I! This is the one I am looking at, at the moment. Cheap 100mm Macro Lens Here

Thanks Huga! That's the sort of opinions I need. I sort of thought for the extra bit of money it might be worth getting the 100mm.

Okay wonderful Photography DOL members Quick question about Macro Lenses. Which on would you recommend? Money factor between these two is no big deal. Canon EF 100mm f2.8 Macro OR Canon EF 50mm f2.5 Compact Macro Lens. All opinions welcome! Thanks in advance!

Looking Forward To Sunday Will miss seeing the Pointees

What a beautiful, beautiful tribute. I am sitting here with tears streaming down my face. Run Free Ari & Baz

Yay! Done! Thanks For The Reminder! I'm very excited.. I have never done one of these before.

Sorry, I was under the impression that Oscar's Law was run by a couple of the main ALV members. My mistake.

I have a BIG issue with puppy farms, but no issue at all with responsible, registered breeders who follow all the rules and do what is best for their dogs

Opps.. Gremlins

My boys are fully vaccinated and never bring them if their health is not 100%

I think I will just bring my older boy. He is a lot more laid-back and calm. I think Hector and his puppy ways, he would be very, very excited and would want to play, talk and meet everyone and their dogs.

(well I can laugh now.. at the time I was very upset) .. Maverick's first bed was a beautiful $100 bed that I thougth he would think was sooo comfortable and he could grow into it.. well he didn't like to sleep on it, He only liked to chew it. This is what I came home to one night..

Why thank you

Kongs, Cuz & Aussie Dog Toys are the only ones that my destructo dogs can't eat thru Kongs Cuz Toys (this site actually has quite a few heavy duty toys) Aussie Dog Toys As for beds, mine had blankets and reject shop beds until they learnt to respect their beds. They only respect their inside beds.. the outside ones get destroyed in a day.. They have these Bone Fido beds as their inside beds

Oh :D I didn't realize! Ah well, thanks for enlightening me!

Super Cheap for anyone that is interested! :D Furminator - COTD

Welcome to the Kepala Crew James Bond :D

I use a Easy Walk Harness (front attaching) for Hector & a Sporn Harness for Maverick. I prefer the Sporn harness, find it works better. Certainly recommend training though, as a no pull harness and other things like that are just band-aids... DOL members taught me this when I was asking for help when I first started in the forum. Proper training has really helped my boys and they are improving their walking nicely skills all the time.

My old girl was labeled with "Dog Dementia" she was almost 14 years at the time. The vets wanted me to give her 4 tablets twice daily and a special diet (hills b/d) for the rest of her life. I declined the medication and purchased a small bag of the prescription food. The food did not make much of a difference (in my opinion) She then went on to live another 2 years happily, we then had to have her put to sleep early this year, due to muscle wastage. I didn't feel right forcing her to have all those medications at her age that "may not make a difference" Anyway, point being, I think it is something that comes with aging. Just keep them comfortable, loved & warm

I'll be there! Wasn't sure wether I was allowed to post it on here or not.. so thanks Nekhbet! Is anyone bringing their dogs along?
