It was registered post to them and someone signed for it so they lost it but told me they didn't receive it

Hey I'm looking for suggestions for materials to use in a dog run which isn't easy to break if the dogs are determined. Any Suggestions Please? I have White Shepherds 1 which weighs about 50kg

Well I submitted mine in december finally got it back about 2 weeks ago I also wasn't notified about my test result. oh and they lost the first application it apparently didn't get to them in the mail. I'm with Dogs QLD. But I'm not purchasing my domain name for at least 4 months just in case someone has a problem with it.

Well at least that makes it easier to bath him :) :laugh: they wear you out don't they ;) My boy was only home for about a week when he learnt to open the latches on the crate ... I had to put clips on them so he didn't open the crate at night ... When he was still little we used to keep both dogs separated on either side of the yard during the day when we were not home to supervise but every afternoon when we got home both dogs were on one side of the yard. Couldn't find any holes so we thought the older boy was jumping the fence - so we extended the fence. It was only after I was home sick one day that we worked out the younger dog was opening the latch on his side of the yard and letting the older dog in so they could play. Now if they need to be separated for any reason ... I use a padlock on the gate as he hasn't worked out how to remove them yet :laugh: He can turn on the garden taps ... so they have to be turned off and the handles removed. Sounds like my Great Dane X I kept being told by the neighbours that my dog was out and every time I got home he was happily at home in bed :) since I've been on holidays he has proven just how he got out.... under the gate through the wheel track that he has been making deeper each time it rains now at least we know and now we have to cement the driveway to keep the ingenious dogs in Now that would be a sight to see. Did the owners ever find out and come up with a solution?

I have been looking through the prefixes on the fci website and comparing them to the dogs qld magazine and of all the prefixes that I have entered the only 1 that I have been able to find is Alaskan Malamute breeder Darksky. the fci website says they update their website prefixes every week. I am just wondering how often the ANKC updates FCI on the breeders prefixes that have been approved? And can our prefixes be approved in another country?

thanks for your replies guys, I'm now going to stick to the pant suit but get that outfit for going out :)

I'm new to the show scene and I am just feeling my way at the moment. I have a White Swiss Shepherd. I am a larger woman and I don't feel comfortable in knee length skirts but longer skirts I'm fine with. I'm just wondering whether long time show people would recommend it or does it just look out of place? This is the Skirt I'm looking at with the matching jacket would it be out of place?

I'm sorry but that advice from your trainer is ridiculous Don't put your dog or anyone elses dog in that position because it will just lead to fights and won't do anything to help your training if I was you I would find a new trainer

This is what I currently do and it is working, the other dogs are slowly learning to be calm so they can be with the pup but until the pup is a lot bigger they are going to be separate, except for supervised times together or the pup decides to climb the fence because she is over excited to get to me. though she has only been with me for 3 weeks I have a lot of training to do with all my dogs.

I'm sorry I can't help but I am dealing with a similar situation now and will be interested to see other responses

I'm looking at either behaviourist, vet nursing or animal attendant where I live I would need to do any course by correspondence as my local TAFE does hardly anything. I have been looking at a behaviourist course through companion animal behaviour institute (cabi.com.au) and animal studies through open colleges

I am wondering what courses everyone would suggest would be helpful to get into the pet industry? Which study organisations would everyone recommend? I'm not sure which area I want to get into so am just looking for suggestions

Yes she is adorable but has lungs like a banshee and knows how to use them

Well now we have had a couple of hours sleep here is Alexi

Thanks for your replies she responds to any moving object which is good i just hadn't seen any dog react the way she did and i now believe it was my hands she reacting to.

Hey I have a question my new puppy is a very interesting dog. She has the voice and lungs of a banshee, she is a tester (who will give in first) and I have just discovered she has a high drive for red lights. With red light she has understood sit and drop she wouldn't do this for me with treats. I haven't tried this during the day but I was wondering is it likely that you can train a dog with light?

Her name is Alexi or Pup Pup Alexi as she currently answers to :) soon I'll be weaning her off Pup Pup :)

So after a long wait and a LOT of mistakes from the transport company I have my puppy. The Flight was an hour late so when she got to me she was so thirsty. She is so much smaller then I thought she would be but my last white shepherd is twice the size of normal so Alexi must be about right in size. She will definitely be a testing pup we had nowhere near as much screaming from the other dogs we have. She is a little worn out for the moment

Sorry for your loss

The breeder was dropping the puppy at the airport so she still is in good hands, just frustrated hands :)

I'm still trying to talk to someone in charge to get an answer I'm not happy at all my first call to them was at 840 then I left a message for the boss at 9 and now I have just called them again and he's stepped out of the office. Don't you just love customer service from a company that says they care

Another change of plans. Dogtainers stuffed my booking again. now she is coming tomorrow. I will never transport a puppy or anny animal through dogtainers again

Thanks I should meet my puppy at 1245pm approx then I have a 2 hour drive home so photos will go up once all the dogs have met ;) Now I just need to get my last good night sleep before toilet training :) Reply through Android

My Saffioraire puppy arrives on Monday :) at 12.15pm at Cairns Airport I can't wait to finally meet her. Her name will be Alexi, joining Akasha and Amigo (all A names )

Hi again everyone again. My puppy will now be coming on Monday. Cairns Air Express depots are either closed or require a huge extra fee ($220) on top of $320 just for the transport for australia day or public holidays cause . I can't wait to finally meet her.
