Ever heard of a Golden Labrador?...you know, the blonde ones ETA...correction, its usually golden labradore lol

Really?

Ooooh dear...I found a group, something about, english staffy x american staffy...make the australian staffy, the perfect staffy, it was full of spelling errors and scary people

Hopefully...the first 3 have been epic failures!!

He just made that presumption based on her breed, he presumed she was poorly bred and from a petshop or BYB, which she isnt :D As far as I know the only visible sign is the skipping with their back legs, she has NEVER skipped, now we cant even play fetch without her coming up lame on her leg, it goes back to the way its supposed to be once it slides back into place but still, it could mean the end of her agility career he had loads of trouble getting her patellas to move at first, if I had have known more about it back then I would have told him to stop...unfortunately I didnt, I believed the recommendations and pushed my skeptical thoughts on chiros to the back of my mind...Im such a bad mum

Oh but he's pure breed...ive just conveniently lost his 'papers' (AKA receipt from the pet shop)

Hey guys Im in...but dont know of any locations sorry!

Monique of course you guys can come!! everyone is welcome! Im going to make an official "watch this space" in regards to the location, it will either be Nudgee or Kroll (Redcliffe) it just depends on the state of the dog beach in a couple of weeks time. Im guessing Im one of the closest so Ill try and go there in person to check it out before hand and Ill try and post on here with a confirmed place by Friday 4/2/11, Ill even put it in the subheading so you dont even have to open the thread! lol

That is what I was wondering, Im not disputing that there may have been a small problem before she went to him, but it wasnt obvious to me, she didnt skip like a lot of dogs do, she was never lame either. Now and only since her visit to him she has been coming up lame on one leg more than the other, Ive had a massage therapist and a vet mention about them even though Ive not mentioned it. Nobody has ever mentioned that they were loose before I took her to this chiro. What I needed to know is, can he have made the problem worse by forcing them to move? your answer has told me yes, he wasnt trying to 'fix' it, he had simply decided that she had luxating patellas before he even touched her

Do you guys find it more cost effective to make your own or buy the pre made patties?

Ill PM you I havent actually done anything yet, Im trying to decide if I should get her checked by my vet before approaching him, or if I should just call him...

I want to look into feeding my girls BARF, is it easy to make your own mix? what do you put in it? I want to keep kibble in their diets because it makes it easier when they are away from home to just take kibble from home and substitute the meat in their diet atm Lexi gets pet mince, Royal Canin and Advance kibble, she also gets the odd turkey neck or turkey wing when they are available. Tess gets Propac kibble and chicken necks a couple of times a week

OMG this makes me cry every time I read it, Lexi does the exact same thing, if Im paying attention to my computer, or late giving her some dinner...nudge, nudge, nudge... Im going to go and give my baby a hug

RIP Sahla Cherish all the good memories you had with her, I can only imagine how you must feel, Ive never lost a pet who has stolen my heart like my dogs have

Jane Harper is great, here is her website, she comes down to Brisbane on a regular basis http://www.dogsontrack.com.au/

yeah I think we will decide for sure closer to the day, I had been hearing about this so Ill try and keep an eye on it all, I live by Strathpine I can check it out prior if I have to, but does someone live closer that can check?

Thanks Freckles, see you are a genius! Ill post some more tonight mind doing those too? ta

Can someone edit these photos for me? [1] Just need some more fur added onto Lexis thigh... healed hotspot just waiting for the fur to grow back [2] Remove the lead [3] Remove the lead...again [4] Add the fur on Lexis thigh again [5] Not sure if the colour can be fixed here...looks a bit orange...ish [6] Add fur on Lexis right leg Thats it for now...there will be a few more lol Thanks guys!

Oooh yeah the beach!! I totally forgot about that! Kroll can wait for cooler weather lol

Are we up for a meet in Feb? I was thinking Kroll at Redcliffe, Ive never been but its supposed to be pretty good there

Have contacted the other person via PM on here to get hold of Ann and to let her know if she is still going have not heard back from her as yet. Sorry I got your PM, I think the universe is telling me not to go, my boss has rostered me to work that weekend and my credit card bill has creeped up again Ill have to chat to my boss on Monday, but Im still not sure about the credit card problem

Well Im heading into work today, Ill keep the radio on in my car so I can stay updated, at this point I wont be going into the city at all but Ill have to wait until I get to work before I know for sure where Ill be going

Im ok, Warner lake was getting full so I chose to self evacuate early, Im staying at Bracken Ridge with the girls

He is doing well! even just take him back to the beginning of the obstacle if you dont want to add in another jump I wish Tess would jump through the tyre on her third session...she still nips through the corner lol

Aww so cute!! I think if I was you Id get him to do another jump before turning him around and heading back over the dogwalk etc, that way he doesnt learn to backjump or head back onto contacts etc...my JRT is in love with the A-frame and I sometimes have a lot of trouble getting her off it...I think she likes the view lol
