he's wearing an elizabethan collar to stop him licking his wounds.

Ok, so today Tyrion had surgery. He was desexed and had his rear dew claws removed too. One of his bandages for his rear claw came off? Should I be concerned or will it be ok?

I have Pembroke Corgi's and young children, they've been fantastic pets and great with the kids.

Thanks everyone! Will, have a look at Petstock :)

So, for the last few months my dogs have been on Applaws which they've done quite well on. I went to buy a bag today cause i'm almost out and my local supermarket doesn't stock it anymore. The price tag was there with a "reduced to clear" so i'm worried they're not going to get it in again? I went to another supermarket close by and they also didn't have it. I know foods are meant to be changed over slowly but what do I do in this case? Also, what do I change to? The last food I had them on was Black Hawk and Tyrion did terribly on it. He was really greasy, loosing fur, not putting on weight etc.

I def agree with the comments on getting a breed you want to live with and show that. I don't show, but if I ever did I wouldn't have to question breed at all. It would be Pembroke Corgi hands down. I just LOVE the breed, I've had them for a good portion of my life and I love living with them. They're def my breed of choice. :)

Friends of mine had a Great Dane x St Bernard and a pug. They got along fantastically!

If you want the Westeros one for Tyrion you have to order quick, apparently the company is no longer making the right studs for them! *Enabling* Aw no. Dont say that, really don't have the spare $$ right now.

Im wanting a karma collar too! lol

In Victoria local councils are responsible for leash laws. What council are you in that has no leash laws? The City of Monash where I live has leash laws and plenty of large off leash parks. Ballarat.

It's an American Bulldog (southern). There are thousands of them here. They have been here for years. Some are registered with the registry in US, some are byb. Whatever it was, that wasn't the problem. The problem was that it was wandering around without a lead and without anyone in control. If the shire doesn't have lead laws, they should have. And the owner of this dog should be fined. Jed the rangers and the council are trying to bring in leash laws with designated areas for dogs to be off leash but there are a number of people who have said that they will not put their dogs on leash.....I hope that the law is brought in for dogs to be on leash except for those areas that they do not have to be.....one of the areas is down near a pony club which is ridiculous as there is no fencing and I am sure some dogs will have great pleasure in chasing the horses....it is still being decided at the moment so we are waiting to hear what the council are planning to do :) I really hope we get some decent leash laws here. We desperately need them, but with it we do need some decent off leash areas.

They got 12 months in jail I believe. Guilty of Animal cruelty. I'd never heard of a Presa until this article.

My thoughts exactly!

This seems a rather extreme reaction, I would think something else has gone on here!

That is so sad. What a terrible loss. Deepest condolences. Oh no I missed this. What an awful loss. Thinking of you.

Hi everyone! Its been a while! Can't believe how big everyone's babies are getting! Wow! Tyrion recently turned one, and here is the handsome devil. Now he just needs to fill out, I don't think he'll get much taller or longer. :)

I will get her to the vet next week. Thanks everyone :) I wouldn't need to worry about cutting a tail hole as she is a pembroke corgi and she was born before docking was illegal so was docked as a pup.

Are they a thing? I'm currently dog-sitting my parents older (14 year old) corgi. However, I grew up with this dog when I was living at home, and I have more time than my parents do to devote to her, and she loves the company of my other dog and kids so my parents have said that if I want to I can have her permanently because she seems much happier when she is here. She used to be house trained - but obviously with age sometimes comes other issues, my Mum did warn me not to have her inside to often as she as trouble continence issues. We would prefer that she come in regularly and be with us all. She came in tonight and had 3 accidents in the space of an hour - but I figure that she probably also just getting use our routine and house etc. However, if is an ongoing issue is there doggie diapers that she can wear when she comes in of an evening? or another option so that I don't have to keep cleaning my carpet, and she can come in and enjoy family time with the rest of us?

Good on you for standing up for the dog! My kids, having grown up with pets from the day they were born wouldn't even *think* to do something like this. They're much more respectful than that! Some people are idiots!

I had the same problem when toilet training Tyrion! Really hard to see if he was peeing when he was so low to the ground. lol but, after a while I got to know his particular posture if he was going to the toilet! I'd say your doing wonderfully! We had a lot of accidents here in the early days!

For walking just attach his leash to him and let him run around the house with it on. Don't hold it - then he will be use to it in no time at all! :)

Oh no

So, this is day four of Tyrion being on his medication, and he'll get his second bath for the week today. The good news he is already improving. He isn't itching anywhere near as much, he doesn't smell as much and he feels much nicer to cuddle and pat. I also had the vet double check his testicle when we were there last time, as it was still undecended, well it has decended but not into the scrotum, the vet said it is in the groin area next to his leg, which if left can cause complications. So, in the new year he will most certainly be desexed and at the same time have his rear dew claws removed.

Excellent If I manage to get there I will try find you. Since I can't take Tyrion to puppy school this week i'll prob be able to make it :)

Ooooh, I have a dental xray that morning, but I might have a look! Wonder if they take dubious crosses? Haha. Are you coming along? Im sure you could ask, they allow Igs :) Sadly I wont be there as I have the human kids dancing concert tomorrow night/Sat/Sat night and backing it up with a dog show in Ballarat on Sunday. Hopefully next year I will be there :) oh were is the dog show? Im interested in coming for a looksee :D
