This is correct.

AWL has dogs closer to standard for next to nothing. I have idiots telling me my Amstaff is small because of ugly dogs like the ones he breeds. Revolting.

Greyhound racing is indefensible. Lovely dogs, factory bred and destroyed. How embarrassing it is to be human sometimes.

I can recommend Amseraphs Amstaffs. Kelly there has been awesome with me over the last 4 years. Moderate type dogs and she will have a litter soon, the sire just winning best of breed at Westminster. My dog from her is the most affectionate dog I've ever owned. Brilliant.

I'm not sure I subscribe to the 'bait dog' theory for stolen dogs. It makes no sense. I do believe awful people steal dogs to do terrible things to them.

Yeah I don't know why everyone doesn't know this by now. What are they thinking?

Done. I love these surveys. :)

Have an Amstaff, don't want an SBT. Have had Rotties, don't want a dobe. I'm sure they're lovely, just not for me.

I love reading dog food reviews. I do find them helpful.

That's a pretty weak response from the vet. I'd be off to another vet. I don't leave until I understand the issue.

Dogo Argentino for sure! And the importation of well bred APBT.

I live on the gold coast and typically 'over the border' means into NSW.

There's some ugly, ill-bred dogs on that page. Yuck.

EVERY single time I walk my dog, which is every single day, more than one small dog will go crazy, aggressive barking, snapping and lunging at my dog. EVERY single walk, usually multiple times. And every single time my dog ignores them. Not once has my dog responded to a small dog looking for trouble. I have one of those breeds that some people are afraid of. Says a lot to me. I have been thinking of videoing each encounter with my phone. I do not go to dog parks. Edit for error.

If they can't even register a litter, what other things are they not doing?

Yep I do the same. Many people are frightened of greyhounds and the muzzles don't do them any favours either. It doesn't help that Stan absolutely loves the vet and bounds in like a lunatic, a muzzled lunatic is enough to put the wind up anyone. If annoys me when people are not paying attention to their dogs and not thinking of everyone in the waiting room. Hang on, all the other owner did was sit in the waiting room with her dog under control. How is there an obligation for her to check on every person she encounters and ensure she makes them feel comfortable around her dog? If her dog got away from her or was behaving inappropriately because she wasn't paying attention that would piss me off too but her dog didn't do anything wrong at all in this scenario. Maybe there's no obligation but as an owner of a particular breed I feel I need to present the best and most cautious behaviour.

I think you were right to be wary. The other owner should have made sure you felt at ease. I have a dog that may scare other dog owners and I ALWAYS make sure there is no chance of drama.

I only read of one litter in 1999 from a 1998 imported pairing.

Hey guys I am wondering if anyone can explain the lack of Kuvasz breeders in Australia? Is there no demand for the dogs? Is there no overseas breeders willing to place dogs with breeders here? IS their purpose already covered by other LGD breeds? I can't see any listed on the DOL breeders page. Any and all info is appreciated.

I guess anything is possible to propose why the boy was there. The dogs don't know why the boy was there. Sad all round but I still can't reason why the dogs must pay.

Even a 10 year old? Well 30 years ago I was 10. I knew not to do it.

Same here.

Common sense means not entering a yard with a dog in it.

My personal view is that your dog should be neither visible, nor accessible from the front of the house. Solves the 'safe passage' issue neatly. We have no choice here in the ACT. We cannot have front fences. Fair enough. I am not looking for an argument. I wasn't aware that in the ACT you didn't have front fences.
