Yer I didn't think so either. Thanks :-)

Thanks Mirawee, I just called them and they quoted me $500, does that seem normal? Were you able to claim through your pet insurance?

they are too beautiful... i want another pup haha! thanks for your advice on the vets. I have heard a lot of bad things about murdoch vet hospital on this forum though, is that the one you are referring to? I don't really mind travelling, as I guess it's a one of thing anyway. Do you know whether you can claim the cost on pet insurance? I am with medibank.

A not so scary pup

poor poor Olive. that never would have happened if she didnt chew a hole in her tennis ball ;-)

Hi. Does anyone know of any good vets that do hip and elbow x-rays. It was Olive's first birthday today so I need to get her x-rayed soon and I am not sure where to go. I would like somewhere north but still close to the city. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks :-)

Hi all. Just wondering whether anyone has heard of pet fare pet food? My step mum has started using it for her dogs. I am currently giving mine black hawk, but she isn't that fussed with it. Pet fare is also almost half the price of BH!!!

These are the best I could do by myself and with an iPhone :-( Might look at getting some professional ones done to get a better idea

That's great. Thanks. I found her great gradsire. Ok so the stack... I know what this looks like but how on earth do you get them to stay still, with their head up and tail out flat? Is this like a"trick" we could work on with treats?

Another questions. Hope its not a stupid one. I have Olives papers in front of me and I have been googling her pedigree. Is there a better way of understand her ancestry? She seems to have a lot of driftway which I have heard of as well as Napier and albanel. I would love to know what shows these labs were involved in as many seem to be champions of some sort. Maybe from there I could find strengths and weaknesses in her family line.

Thanks :-) yes she is forever scooping up the cushions underneath her and sleeping on them. We were going to have a no couch policy, but instead we got rid of our very comfy cream couch and got a not as comfy dark grey one just so we could have snuggles

Yaaaaay

Oh no hahaha. Ok I'll try again!

Probably could have done with some editing, and I'm not a great photographer especially on an iPhone but at least I got the up!

I have just uploaded some photos to photo bucket, how do I put them on here?

Hopefully. I sent her off an email this morning asking if she knew anyone. Even just to take a look at her. :-)

Thank you for all that positive information. I have been in contact with my breeder as she thinks that Olive has the potential to do very well because she is a lot like her aunty :-) she hasn't seen her since she was 8 weeks, but I set her photos and details about how she is progressing. Although she is sometimes very helpful it does make it harder with her being in another state. Jr inoz it sounds like you have had a terribly sad time, your girl is lucky to have a mum like you :-) I hope I will never have to experience that for myself but I'm not nieve in thinking it will be a walk in the park either. I will do some more training with my girl as right now she is definitely not controlled enough for any show ring and maybe next year I will come and check some shows out with her. Thanks again for all your suggestions and stories. Positive encouragement makes a big difference :-)

I of course would take holidays around that. I can plan my holidays months and months in advance. :-)

Ok I will do that. My laptop has died so I will have to et that sorted. Will try and post some Xmas photos :-)

Unfortunately it's not a choice. I can choose about 2 shifts per week but am not guaranteed to get them off. We are usual required to work every second weekend. I will certaintly look into it and see what is required in terms of training etc.

I haven't chose to show her because I am a nurse and I work shift work. It's hard enough trying to follow a television series let alone a rigorous training schedule that requires me to do long distance driving and I am not prepared to give up my career nor could I afford to, to get into showing. I would love to come to more shows and can always manage to get days off around shows but in the long term it's not possible for me to be consistent in attending training and shows unfortunately :-(

Can I upload photos from an iPhone on here?
