Chezy

I didn't get a urn, Misty came back in a nice box , I could have got a urn , not my thing really so decided plain dog plain packaging lol, she used to love sitting just inside the door and scare the crap out of door salesmen by barking just as they knocked, so she sits just to the side if the door :)

Just watch out for ornaments we lost a cockatiel who chewed a decoration the wire of which was copper. Turns out copper is toxic to birds. oh dear never thought of that, something to keep in mind thankyou , most of mine are string luckily and the birds mainly hide in there from me lol

depends om the dog Chopper is older now and requires less training than he did , he now only gets 1 class agility a week , if there was a tricky bit at a comp that we fluffed I will set it up and work on it with him, but otherwise he has it easy . Ricki requires more training, she gets a small session at home every day , plus her class , while we are doing walkies or other chores she will get a few foundation things like left/rights chucked at her . atm we are on a agility break, no agility for 2 months , all equip packed away , don't know if I will regret this with Ricki, but chopper and i need it :laugh: I still chuck in some foundation stuff for her though they get all the incidental stuff all the time, like sit stays and recalls , that is all done when out and about

I feed mine twice because of my shiftwork , makes extreme time changes less for them I feel

What do you call 'ridiculous hours?' some nights the house dogs get fed at 8;30 ..sometimes 2 in the morning . ..they get fed whenever we go to bed ..whether that's early or late. The working dogs get fed anytime from 5 pm to midnight ..depending on what we're doing ..and sometimes they are fed early in the morning instead :) Perse with all due respect(as always) who walks out at two in the morning and goes...dinner everyone? It takes just a couple of minutes to feed the dogs. Mine eat hours before I do. I understand working dogs are fed late but are they still working at 2am? if I start work at 3 am I feed the dogs at 2am b4 I go , them they go back to bed . If I finish at 1am they get fed when I get home at 1.30-2am . I do extreme shift work, not rotating , I can start amd finish at any time on the clock and it can change daily , I could be start at the time I was finishing a few days before . Can be quite hard to manage gizzi's meds , sometimes she gets fed 3 times, so I can fiddle her meds and not upset her too much

I do shift work , my dogs get fed at any tick of the clock , they get excited when they hear breakie/dinner :laugh:

love the tree guard dog :laugh: mine have never touched it , the birds on the other hand love it and I can't find them I don't put the dogs pressies under the tree, nothing else under there interests them I know somepne that sprayed the lower levels wih citronella , stopped thiers from attacking it , worth a try, you could put a fence round it maybe

some people are amazing and show that there is still a lot of good in the world :D yes the howls were chilling, the look on his face when he knew that guy was coming to get him and the howl got louder as if to say hurry it cold in here :laugh:

As if that would ever happen! *cough* that pic is a classic

your house your rules, if people dont like it they don;t have to visit/stay , do they know that long long ago there were these places invented called motels :laugh:

I have had conversations with people ,about Chopper, they have commenteds on how good he is and good looking dog , we have had a conversation about how he is a rescue dog, then they have come to the reason they approach, they wanted to breed with him I would have a lil convo about breeding willy nilly, whihc would usually go in one ear and out the other . i would then end the convo with "my rescued dog will not produce more rescue dogs "and walk away

awww they are gorgeous :)

nothing like a happy ending to warm the heart :)

so glad to hear Bella got the all clear and is feeling better :)

my dogs cope quite well in the heat and we only hide after it goes over 35 the agility comp for sat evening has been cancelled, I would have done it , at 7pm would have been round the 30 mark as predicted , my dogs would hasve been fine , i am sure others would not . My older girl would not have gone she would have been home in the aircon :laugh: , but the younger competing 2 would have been fine . i dont mind the heat either eta I have a kelpie and a kelpie x rottx ridge , mutley mutts thats will work in the paddock with me whatever the weather

hope all is good for Bella and her op today , sending u a cyber {{{{hug}}}}} Nic

my dogs love them and turkey necks if I can get them

awwwww cute pics :D

people that let their dogs roam, make noise, disturb others and dont clean are are the ones that ruin it for te rest of us

Thank goodness! I thought my Dally was the only dog who loves Sorbolene :laugh: He just stands there looking sad now - I'm such a meanie! she has worked out where the sorbolene comes from now, I will have to make sure I dont leave the container down

def a non-lick person

Ricki loves sorbolene , when I am putting it on she circles and whines as I wont let her lick it off , gross weird animal :laugh:

I can just imagine the scene in the waiting room, slobber flying your gunna have to get rolf a bee suit :laugh: poor thing he looks miserable and it def ruins his hamdsome looks :)

contact aged care or such help providers, quite often older people need someone to walk, wash, groom etc I used to walk a ladies dog a few times a week, she just asked me when I was wlaking mine
