  1. Hi there annie, Have only heard of a red ribbon tied onto a horses tail to beware of a kick. Folk who use this yellow sign know the dog is their own responsibility, most attend clubs so there isn't a danger with the ribbon being abused because of the ground rules and posters are put up as a reminder. Oh the muzzle comment, that just shows you the persons inexperience doesn't it! Anybody owning a dog that has special needs would never say this. I'm sorry about your older boy losing an eye, great to hear he is getting better. ~Pat
  2. It's a bit late to reply to this thread, just noticed it sorry! The yellow ribbon is in Australia now, quite a few clubs are using it. I prefer the yellow 'dog in training give me space' vests as they can be seen from a distance. http://www.yellowdog-australia.k9events.com/
  3. I have but this was a couple of years ago. I found it a great tool for easing anxiety in high-stress situations and reducing visual stimuli but not when the wind was blowing our way as my dog scented things, picked it up on the wind. :-)
  4. Excellent in thinking to teaching more tricks! I don't know what club you go to but it helped my dog when I changed clubs and went to one that used the yellow ribbon/bandanna that says "give me space". So the other handlers gave my dog room.
  5. Most probably I am too late in replying, get in touch with your council, they should be able to help you on this. Adelaide have a public assess test qualifying dogs in your own state. Sorry but I cannot remember who to get in touch with. The dogs need to be 18 months of age to do take the test but I don't know about your state. cheers Yellowdog :)
  6. Yes I do, why? It would take a lot to fill you in on what to do etc. Cheers yellowdog
