Atanquin, I thought it said that she was offered another mating but didnt take it and now the stud is dead. With the sheps we always had a contract which basically said if the bitch produces less than 3 live puppies they can have a repeat mating to that bitch or another bitch registered in their name. The reasoning behind this was that with three puppies, one paid for the stud, one paid the vet bills and one for them to keep. Still working out what the best number is on shelties, they have smaller litters.

I have had to resort to using two, one for brushed, combs and scissors and one for sprays.....hopefully someone has a better idea

I would rather walk through a sidewalk full of dogs to get my food than the current sidewalk full of smokers, by the time I get my food I feel too ill to eat it.

need to ban water and electricity..........lol

I didnt read the bit where Matthew says he was 5

If it was someone I had previous experience with and did not like them due to how they had treated me no way. You have to be able to deal with these people almost like family.

thats a hell of a lot of power and agility in one animal

I am seriously in two minds as to how it will be perceived.

we as dog lovers may be the last people they want to come across or think about

maybe the state controlling bodies will do up little business cards for you to carry with you....didnt they do that for tail docking??????? or was it something else

uummm loveretrievers do you want to re-read this post of yours "Lol I'm not a people person really, makes it hard when you have a puppy and everyone has something to say andva pat needed. I put up with it cause I need to socialize him. Really got to me the other day this girl looked in our German shepherds pups ear at his tattoonand said good he is desexed andvwalked off. I was thinking wtf??? Lol but I said nothing. I plan to show him but no point in saying anything, people then ask if he is on main register well duh, then look at me cause I have a female mix I'm going to breed. I just smile and keep going. Everyone has an opinion." If it is as you have written I suggest you read the ANKC Code of Ethics before to show your GSD

i voted no, for the same reason ans Aziah has pointed out. i would hate to see a dog moved to a group where it really didnt belong. Another reason, imagine the chaos for getting judges....unless you always got all breed judges you would more than likely have to split the group into several sections, a logistical nightmare

perfect Lilly

Trinabean I actually managed to pick it first time....but as a dog judge it was mostly by eliminating the others not by knowing a APBT.

THANK YOU Poodlefan. If this was Facebook, I would "Unlike" that, just so I could keep "Like-ing" it again. When my boyfriend read about the attack, his reply was "well, it happened in St. Albans, so that's not a big surprise as to one of the "whys"." Rep whilst I somewhat agree with your statement and I did think the same, isnt that like say all pitbulls are nasty.... so it shows that we all tend to generalise in one form or another. edited to say I have no idea how to post so bolded Rep's comment

I would never let a bitch have her first litter after 3years. There is nothing in the ANKC code of ethics about the maximum age, just how many total litters and how often.

It wasnt my dog. I do my own photos its just that I think most of the others were BOB winners. I am the last person to expect someone to be in 7 places at once.

Its a shame the sheltie ones on the Sat arnt the BOB winner.....the one photographed didnt even pick up a res ch....I was hoping to see the BOB and RUBOB

bad luck if you dont know the dogs that won sweepstakes, I would have thought at least list the breed

Unfortunately i think the days of everyone watching out for all are long gone. I know I am happy to let them know if they are in danger but some parents are not happy for their kids to be told off

whooo hooo Pridey, well done. The best I could do was a Res Ch over a couple of Grand Champions with a 12 month old...I was pretty chuffed

and thank you to OBS who gave me her lovely plant that she won....the first one for my new home...

Bbj yes it was the blue you photographed....she's very cute

Does anyone know how the little boy who got run over at the show today is?

Hi All I need to contact Marion but the number I have is constantly engaged....does anyone have a number that they can pm me or an email address. Cheers Catherine
