You beleive this becuase he told you so?LOL.A lot of people claim a lot of things many of them not true.So a young guy with limited resources spends $10,000 to import an American pitbull Terrier when he can get one down the road for $500, yeah right. Not to mention it involves the person at the other end sticking their neck out and lying and risking their livliehood and or prosecution which in America means jail time to send some know nothing kid a dog.I dont think so.Yes it can be done but it wasnt done by this young bloke you speak of.Think about it. Nope, originally I called his bluff and pointed out almost exactly what you stated... but I had to eat my words when he showed us all photos of his "hunting" dogs and his (must admit, very cute) pup was there in print for all to see! When I asked how he managed it all he told me was his brother lives in the US and "where there is a will there is a way". I told him he was a total w@nka and a few other choice words. Unfortunately he hardly has limited resources either. He's 22 and already a $200k plus earner in the mines as a Geotechnical Engineer... money that I could only dream of being on.. LoL. So he showed you a pic of a pup and that makes it true?Lol. Ok, no it doesn't make it true...I lied. He lied. The photo of him and his pup (and his girlfriend I think it was)in the red dirt of Kalgoorlie was most obviously photoshopped.... happy now?! Oh, and the other dudes in the office who have been out shooting with him lied too... lol, probably because he has lots of guns and to argue with him would probably mean a bullet in the foot (just joking). Gosh, I was just telling that it happened. He has contacts... most obviously not very reputable ones. I 150% don't agree with what he did, but he did it. ***sigh*** I knewI should have taken him up on the offer to "prove it" to me, but I didn't want to give him the pleasure of standing me corrected when I told him there was no way he would get one into Australia, especially after seeing the photos and others backing him up. It is worrying thought that if it can happen just how often is it happening?! Just ETA... sorry my response was a bit rude. Am very pregnant and cranky... I don't blame anyone for doubting it. I probably would too.

A young guy I worked with earlier this year imported a Pit Bull pup and got it in to Australia by lying and saying it was an American Staffy.

Hey, I was reading that thread on the other forum as well... I haven't bothered to reply on it because some of the comments were just plain stupid. As for the chick (basically) saying it killed a cat now it'll be after your child is just a whacko!

I've heard that works really well???!!! Must try it on Bolt... ;)

A lady I work with wants a GSD x Poodle... apparently they are being bred and are popular (so she says) tells me I should have gotten one of them instead of my pedigree GSD!!! I did a google search and they do exist!

Awww really?! Gah... this feeding caper is harder than I thought! I live in the Goldfields, many many kms from Perth. I think I might contact the Black Hawk lady and see if I can get a sample. I'll just have to buy in bulk next time I'm in Perth. Thanks

I think you're right Thanks everyone for your replies... last night and this morning I tried pouring warm water mixed with beef stock over his kibble... he ate about three mouthfuls and that was it. I'll try the lactose free milk and see how we go. I know the little bugga is hungry because he going spastic at the smell of the chicken carcasses I was putting in the freezer last night. I think a major problem is he gets so distracted by everything. I tried feeding him out the back with my other dog, which worked OK the first time, but then he got distracted when I went inside and spent all his time crying at the back door. I've tried feeding him inside, but then ANYTHING will distract him, especially the cats! From now on he's going in his crate to eat... though I already know he will just ignore the food and cry to get out.

I have a nine week old GSD that has decided to stop eating his kibble. When I got him from his breeder I was told to feed twice a day only (does that sound right? was expected three times a day) and was given a bag of Natural Balance kibble, as that was what he was weaned on to. Well, I can't access NB where I live so I have slowly changed him across to Advance... which has been a big fag failure! First of all he would just pick out the NB kibble, and now he flatly refuses to eat even those. I do the whole leave it down for twenty minutes and then remove it, but he just doesn't eat it. Yesterday was the second day he had gone hungry so I gave him some pulverised chicken necks which he almost hoovered down... is this OK to feed him? He is very active, so mixed with not eating he is getting very light on. My question is... would it be OK to go without kibble for a while and feed raw foods instead? Are there any good supermarket brands of kibble anyone could suggest? I only ask because Advance is really the only premium food I can find around here in country WA. My husky loves eating the meat loaf rolls from the supermarket, would it be OK to feed this to the pup?! Sorry for all the stupid questions this is the first puppy I have owned that is so picky with food! Thanks
