meanwhile how is it going, this "elimination of puppy farms?" Well someone said there have been less than 5 in the past years. yes years, not year. I know of only two. Well Phil Adam's in 2019 was "raided" and four of his retired pets were seized on the grounds that they were not allowed to live on the property without an individual fully enclosed run for each of them. (pocta rules remember) despite the fact that they had his home, veranda for dozing rights and fully fenced acres to play. They also seized two white cockatoos he was keeping until their feathers had grown back, (he is an RFS Volunteer) he had found them burnt after a recent fire on the grounds he didn't have a license for wild cockatoos and they only had seed to eat and no greens in evidence in the cages. Phil was so disgusted when they began to inspect his three breeding dogs he told them to take everything. so they did. He had been told if he surrendered his old dogs and the birds and signed them over he would not be prosecuted. So he signed them all over believing he would never had to see the bastard Rspca AGAIN. He was mislead and mistaken. Like the headlines below, next he knew were the Headlines, "Londonderry Puppy farm seizure, charges to be laid" He did intend defending himself, that is until his solicitor did the math and he realised sane people (well anyone who hopes to keep their home anyway) plead guilty no matter how well you know your innocent. so he now is a guilty as charged felon. The family below fell for the rspca's offer to take your pets if you can no longer care for them the lady in question, has dementia, her family asked the rspca if they would rehome her animals as she was going into a nursing home. So imagine their amazement after the ever so helpful inspectors came and took them for rehoming. To see these headlines the next day? since when was being invited to come defined as a raid? https://www.peta.org.au/news/nsw-puppy-farm-raid/ note none of the oodles are thin, or unclipped, remember they only photograph the "worst cases" ten minute brush of the 2 nd dog and it too perfect for resale. go google what the rspca have for sale, pens and pens of seriously big dogs. Meanwhile how many hundred's women and children have died in domestic violence incidents in the same 2 years? How many thousand's of mistreated and dead due to neglect were reported in the latest nursing home investigation? Learned that the hard way, my mother finally, took her six weeks to die as the gangrene destroyed her heart and organs, from the day the nursing home finally sent her to hospital with bones hanging out of the bed sores ! After two so called doctors failed to diagnose after a fall she had broken her hip, REALLY! despite 12 weeks of telling them "my mother is in agony" . so she survived 12 weeks of unremitting agony shifted from bed to chair to bed before she was finally surrendered to hospital to die? Months of trying to get investigated and incredible stress, to learn the two doctors involved were "reprimanded, given 3 months retraining AND free psychological recovery assessment". No cruelty charges laid , she wasn't a dog, she would have been far better off if she had been. curious to say the least, hence my suspicions, give the masses a witch hunt to deflect their eyes from the real suffering that would cost the govt billions to address, whereas the public will donate towards animals and cost them very little. sad this race cares more about witch hunting to "save" pets, the vast, vast majority of which are fine, than care a fraction of the same for the vulnerable of their species?

more like criminalising anyone who breeds. It is more than curious how strongly the politicians have moved to criminalise all who have dogs. Yet the lack of focus or legislations to protect the elderly when three royal commissions over how many decades? Have failed to address even one of the long list of recommendations to be done? The weekly, with Charlie Pickering only pointed it out again yesterday, ONE in three are assaulted in nursing homes, left sitting in their own excrement, food so poor quality 2/3rds are suffering malnutrition? Then there is the silence and no legislation improvements addressing domestic violence, despite the fact more than one woman a week is killed, the latest burnt in front of her children? the little boy beaten to death by his father and that's just for the past week? Not even safe in parliament house and what does scotty have to say when they marched? "lucky they are not shot" but they placate the masses by demonising dog owners and breeders? I am beginning to suspect its a ruse to deflect attention to the cruelties that are too common place to the elderly n vulnerable in the community., Give the mugs something to witch hunt so they forget what else we are doing nothing about because THAT might get a few pollies in trouble and actually cost money billions are needed to save the elderly

Neglected to remind you all This addiction to "purity" of the pedigree to the exclusion of health or soundness is beyond me. correct me if im wrong. but I believe all states now , (bar NSW) Will not register a litter until all the puppies have been parentage verified. Millions in income to the dna labs for what purpose? To ensure the 4% of mistakes are identified and corrected? Yes that was the percentage of pedigree mistakes found when this technology became available. You have to be kidding. But I know your not. so How important is their purity OF PEDIGREE? Well for starters how many of you realise when an ANKC breed has hit a bottleneck and is facing extinction or genetic bottleneck the ANKC can . (and done in the past) open a register for grading up. As was done for the Australian stumpy tailed cattledog. So where did the graded dogs come from? The general pet pool of people who love stumpies but none of their dogs are ankc registered, thats where. so why the hysteria about knowing a pedigree is perfect for legions of generations when the actual health and diversity of the breed is the real issue. only by opening a grading up system is many breeds going to have a ghost of a chance or being able to breathe again. live longer healthier lives. toy breeds normally have far longer lifespans than the larger breeds. today so many Cavalier King Charles are dead by 7. just one example DNA profiling for disease is far more important. except the amount of known markers is infinitesimally small among the legions of deleterious genes to be found on offer. Identifying clear examples and including them in the gene pool should be top priority regardless of if they are already pedigree or outstanding unregistered example of their breed. Even the ankc left that option open decades ago for just that purpose.

Yes what you say sounds good. In actual fact so precious few have a clue what is behind the animals in the pedigree. one of my friends only ever bred Australian champion to Australian champion, very aware she never wanted to risk the disasters so attributed to the dreaded "inbreeding" so the dogs she used were never related in any way. I saw more disasters in her puppies than I ever saw bred by another friend who regularly "inbred" to test potential parents over the decades. She had significantly less disaster puppies from her linebred and inbred's. because she had been identifying and removing carriers for many generations by then. This was how breeders of hundreds if not thousands had done before the so limited range of dna testing became available. what so few seem to understand is if two dogs for example carry PLL or two arabians carry SCIDS. NO MATTER how unrelated they are the progeny can end up with PLL or SCIDS and it was not because they were "inbred" you can put two siblings, father to daughter, mother to son and believe it or not! if they are clear of PLL, PRA, Collie eye, deafness u name it. or SCIDS for that matter none of the progeny although definitely inbred will not even have one copy of those defective genes. Some of them become prepotent champions of their breed and species. Inbreeding has never created what was not there . Outcrossing can hopefully hide what is there for generation's until two carriers are put together and everyone screams OH NO they're inbred no other stud book bans the breeding choices of the members like the ankc does. and it did it to please the animal libbers baying for the extinction of all domestic dogs? And which one is heading into endangered figures for so many breeds now? which one is bleeding members at a frightening rate? even more confusing, now despite the constant calls to "eliminate puppy farms" the government has legislated that only POCTA compliant puppy farms are allowed to keep and breed dogs? is it only me who is wondering what on earth is going on?

Bluey had 8, eight, singleton "litters" her life time total being, two less than her mum had in the litter of TEN, Bluey was one of. Winifreds other litters were 7, 7, and 5, so a lifetime total of 29 puppies all live born. Bluey never had a ceaser, nor ever needed assistance for any of them. all were born front feet first and all strong as little chihuahua oxen.

interesting perspective, so if a bitch has any stillborn puppies she isn't "very fertile"? . so you are unaware that having conceived the pup she proved her fertility but to you her fertility is still suspect if it is stillborn? if they come back feet first a high percentage will be stillborn. simply because breech puppies, foals, calves and human babies can often suffocate before their head is clear. one the navel is crushed by the pelvis it will begin to breathe. so back to front its a death sentence for many breech deliveries. to save one foal I had to hook his hips over my shoulder after pulling him out as fast and safely as I could, then because he was so big. could not swing him, compromised by stomping on his ribs to push out the fluid he was drowning in. Meanwhile praying none of them broke ............. he finally began breathing and ended up growing to 16 hands high. If I had not been there he would have certainly died. so by your lights his mum had poor fertility and should be desexed and pet homed?

O and just to confuse you even further many of them also have a version of the "limit register" and/or are already desexed or tied tubes in the girls or vasectomised the boys

refer to the above. sorry I cant stop laughing. sent u a message look at the bar above if you dont know where to look it looks like an envelope

your chances of getting a not already desexed puppy i suspect would be yours and buckley's LOL they will burn you at the stake mate.

these days there are very very few who breed now that dont want to control the pup they bred from the cradle to the grave mate. That applies to anyone you get a pup from, not just an ANKC member. good luck on that quest. equally applies to most of the oodle breeders too, majority are already desexed before sale . my niece paid $7,000 for a blue merle cavoodle. she seemed totally unaware there are no merle cavaliers in Australia. nor to my knowledge are there any merle poodles in Australia? some one correct me if im mistaken? n the little darling was already desexed at 8 weeks

talking to a cavalier breeder recently. we both realised there is one way to eliminate these from the breed and return them to the 15 to 17 year lifespan the breed once had. coming from a family and friends heavily involved with CSIRO animal health I am well aware of the potential of frozen semen and eggs from animals later found to be free of major late in life defects. Also well aware of how useful cloning can be in an environment where millions are available to do this work. Ive seen sheep worth 1.3 million EACH. so where am I going with this. I well remember the ankc asking for donations to stop mrs furbur having access to records when she began a court case, the members raised over 80,000 to cover the legal fees for what to me was a frivilous case. She was a director why not give her acess to the records? the excuse she was wasting staff time confused me, why not just open the door to the files and leave her to it. they lost the case anyway. BUT it did show members can be asked for donations and contribute. so? why not get all cavalier owners to donate towards the collection and freezing of semen and eggs for future storage. then yes only a small percentage of the dogs donated will live MV and Syringomyelia free into their teens. BUT the dogs that do are worth GOLD to the Cavalier King Charles breed. ditto for the king charles if they are also included. So what to do next? use the semen of the successful dogs to the eggs of the successful bitches and you have an instant generation of puppies with a very high expectation of being free of both conditions. Now this is where things get even more important. these puppies will belong to all who contributed. so down the track as they are bred from the members can be balloted to receive puppies and semen to continue the lines and expand the clear gene pool. also equally important, if enough money is raised. any dogs that were missed in the collection and turn out to be clear into their teens the owner can be asked would they please allow dna samples be collected and cloned. YES ITS expensive but costs are dropping annually, Barbara Streisand has three clones of her favourite dog. Even though this sounds like science fiction this approach can be used to identify and return to the gene pool dogs found to be clear even though they had become infertile or desexed. This can be used to improve the gene pool of any breed. Stud cattle and sheep and goat breeders have been doing this for decades already. It needs something the dog world is sadly short of theses days of too many with the mindset that no one gets access to my precious bloodlines. If we want our purebreds to continue free of health issues we need to work together for the good of the breed, not ego's , this is the way to go Ending the present climate pushing that only x breds are the way to go Cloning has made incredible strides since dolly the sheep. In Japan they have a legendary wagyu bull who is still serving, he is a clone, of the clone, of the clone, from the original bull. I think there is a 4th generation of the 3rd clone growing up to replace him. in america there are three clones of a legendary racing mule. one has just been kept by the uni who cloned them, the other two are winning races, achieving the same speeds as the original racing mule.

Mikey, this link is the peta interview I was referring too. its on the "in the news" section https://www.dolforums.com.au/topic/273000-official-press-release-always-been-working-towards-the-extinction-of-our-pets/?tab=comments#comment-6969826

it can be very hard for the owner of a new pup as so many vets put tremendous pressure on them to desex early

one upon a time Mikey. New people were welcomed by ANKC members. You could choose to buy a main register pup if you wished to show and breed your puppy. If you wanted a pet the breeder would give you a copy of its parents pedigrees so you knew its breeding. Also once long ago there were three classes of puppies, That time did exist. it was in the 1970's and early 1980's. Pet, not for breeding as they had a fault not suitable to be bred from. Breeding quality, good quality and conformation, well in the guidelines of the standard, quite suitable for breeding and thus on Main Register. Show quality, good quality and confirmation but had that star quality that would always place them above the breeding quality puppies. (my problem with the "show quality" is a percentage would be a tad more exaggerated in some conformation point that when bred together was and has for generations gradually moved many breeds away from the original standard, (eg, shorter and shorter faces, bigger and bigger eyes, narrower head, or broader head depending on the breed.) just to use Persian cats for example they removed "pleasant expression" so the gargoyles with virtually no muzzle squished beneath massive eyes could now win. in dogs Red setters began to resemble letter openers their skulls were becoming so narrow. French bulldogs and pekes. pugs and Cavaliers lost their muzzles. As my vet Richard said, they shorten the muzzles but the genetics isn't shortening their tongues or their pallets or their nasal passages which are still the same size and now jamming up inside so cant breathe, keep their tongue in their mouth, or even their tear ducts function without blockages. Today few seem to even know "breeding quality" existed Today from what I see in the adds a majority will only sell every single puppy regardless of quality on limit register. I call them Proudly Dead End Kennels. They think they are the epitome of Ethical and Responsible. An unfortunate percentage of ANKC members are what I now think of as "the thought police" They are the self appointed witch hunters of past era's. And like any witch hunter, completely ignorant that other narrowed eyed thought police are eyeing them for elimination too. Their weapon of choice, the phone, busy dialing the rspca, animal welfare and the targets local council. what no one realised in the dog world was a lady began a new organisation in 1982, she called it PETA (people for the ethical treatment of animals) nice cosy sounding name. What it really was founded for was to eliminate all domestic animals. First on the agenda is dogs and cats. about 1984 my ankc friends had began talking about "we have to get rid of backyard breeders and puppy farmers in our membership, they are ruining the reputation of the ankc". I looked at my friends sitting there in their loungerooms planning what was essentially a modern version of the Salem witch-hunts. I asked them, pointing to the back door. "What is outside that door? YOUR BACKYARD" YOU are as eligible for elimination as every other ankc member, unless your living in an apartment with no backyard!" they looked at me as if I were stupid? I couldn't believe they have forgotten the lessons of the past? One of my friends parents are Polish, they knew about witch hunts by the Nazis, another friend is Jewish, he could speak 7 languages because his parents had fled the Hitlers pogroms and in their search for a safe haven been through 7 different language zones and learnt them all before arriving in Australia? My own Mums fathers ancestors fled the Spanish Inquisition to Ireland to become the black Irish. so in those bad old days there were over 50,000 ankc members in a population of some 16 million Australians welcoming you to become an ankc member. fast forward to today, some 22,000 left in a population of now 28 million Australians piously sticking to the ideal of never breeding to sell "we dont breed to supply pets!" I'm ethical, I only breed a litter to replace for the next generation. Sadly Mikey you are going to have a very hard time finding some one who will sell you a main register puppy. I do breed and sell main register puppies, but they are an unfashionable breed. also quite unsuitable for anyone who has no experience with a highly intelligent working breed. So far pretty safe from attracting the interest of any actual puppy farm anyway as they are worth a fraction of the thousands the fashionable breeds get. you need to get to know as many people with the breed you do like and hope and pray you find a nice one who will consider selling you a puppy on Main register. But be careful. when you buy your pup, make sure you ask can you have your puppy vet checked and return if your vet turns it down. there are two reasons for this, some depending on the breed you choose can have significant breathing issues. and as I discovered at a school sports day. Although many breeders tell you upfront, yes I will sell you your puppy on main register so you can show it in the neuter classes. Many puppies today are already either desexed or vasectomised. the lady at that sports day had her cute cavalier puppies in a pen, she didnt want to miss the sports day so had arranged for the new owners to pick them up there. As I played with the puppies I noticed the marks where stitches had been removed and commiserated with her how sad the whole litter had been born with hernias. she blushed. admitted they were not done for hernias, the had all been desexed as 'None of the puppy buyers want to breed but they all insist they want them on main register, sooo they can't complain when none of them can reproduce can they?" to want to breed today is to be suspected of being "only in it for the money" you are intending to become a "greeder" Meanwhile there are so few purebred puppies to be found people are having to wait a year or more for even an already desexed puppy there are rebels like me who will sell on main register to keep our breed from extinction. But sadly 99% are desexed by their owners before they are 12 months old either vet pressure or so many believe the propaganda not to breed to contribute to the pounds. There just isn't a next generation coming to keep our breeds going. but all the ankc breeds barring a miracle are on the slope to extinction my vet four years ago predicted within ten years most pedigree breeds will be on or beyond endangered. added to that the mad demand for oodle crosses few purebreds even unpapered are being bred together to fill the x breed market and thus too are heading for endangered PETA is so happy and confidant that last Melbourne cup day they went public over how successful their elimination campaign has been that they see the end of domestic dogs in sight. Can we who love our dogs wake up in time and stop destroying each other and our breeds before its too late? Peta threw in the seeds to begin the destruction from within. (we have to eliminate puppy farmers, we have to eliminate backyard breeders,) came from PETA. Ankc members heard it and took up the cry, with no idea of the agenda behind it, can the pack be called off? can they reunite? because divided they are falling like matchsticks.

I suspect this will be in the news some time soon. I have learned of 7 in just the past two months. Two are puppies I bred, only 3 have survived but they only had one dose of either bravecto or nexguard. An 8th I learned is now dead. same symptoms although her owners swear they never gave her either. although not saying what they did give her as their vet has told them epilepsy and neurological damage is inherited and has told them to ask me for their money back? Interestingly none of the vets who gave the dogs they then put down when the fitting and damage eliminated quality of life have considered the drug they gave the dog is responsible or offered any refunds? half have told the heartbroken owners, for the puppies. its genetic. for the until then perfectly healthy ten your old given his first nexguard chew by the vet and had to be put down, his owner was told "sudden old age onset"? He hit the roof when I warned him when he bought his new puppy. not to give her and that I knew it is killing peoples dogs. Until then he had believed his vet. all the ones ive heard about had reactions to their first exposure to it? Apparently for some reason (some vets are speculating in the literature I've been googling , it crosses the blood brain barrier) in a small percentage with awful results as the active component is a powerful neurotoxin and there is no antidote. This lady's dog the damage has apparently been accumulative. Kelly Duggan YesftrohesesetSpoSernmedasfatyg at 1u1h:or30edme · NOT MY DOG -- Reposting for Signe Bay Dear all! We are in deep grief as we lost our dear cocker spaniel Rita one week ago. She was four, almost five years old and had no symptoms of anything before a week before, where she started urinating at night. I immediately took her to the vets, and after a couple of days researching (and the first vet saying it was just a stomach flu ) they found out that Rita suffered from LIVER CIRRHOSIS (end stage) and they told us that there sadly was nothing we could do. At this point Rita was generally fine. We went to another vet to get a second opinion, but her conclusion was the same. But why? I asked them. Rita was never ever ill, she was so healthy, never had anything. Her breeder has had cocker spaniels for 30 years, and none of her dogs died under 15 years. But she doesn’t give them oral flea medications. The vet told us that it is most likely that Rita suffered from a genetic disorder. Other vets I talked to (more holistic ones, but still veterinarians) told me, Rita had to have been poisoned. No liver would be damaged to that amount without poisoning. One vet asked if we had been using Bravecto. Bingo! Yes, unfortunately I once listened to my vet who highly recommended this drug as we were staying one summer in an area with lots and lots of fleas. We gave Rita Bravecto approx. every six months over a period of two years. I’m usually very sceptical about chemistry and drugs, and I have no idea how I could, with no suspicion, give pesticides to our dear dear Rita. I want to use this very hard lesson to bring awareness to everyone about the horrible side effects {after} Bravecto! My goal is to get it forbidden in Denmark, and I will use my rather big amount of following on IG (290K) to reveal everything about these medications. Yesterday I wrote about Rita, and I’ve received hundreds of messages from people who’ve experienced the exact same issues with their young dogs - after using Bravecto, and many of these never saw the connection before - thus none reported cases. My vet, at first, wouldn’t even report it to the Danish department of Drugs neither Merck, so I reported it myself! Then I talked to the pathologists of the University of Copenhagen, only place in Denmark where they do autopsies, and they told me that they wouldn’t be able to see WHY Rita’s liver was end stage, not even whether it was poisoned or whether it was a genetic disorder, and even IF we knew Rita was poisoned, they aren’t able to make correct analysis to address what she has been poisoned with. I believe they only make these analysis (in the spine?) in the US? Addressing that problem to my vet, that ‘how on Earth will they ever have scientifically evidence when it is NOT possible to make the correct tests??’, she understood that there might be an issue here, and she was willing to report the death of Rita as ‘suspicious’. So, I NEED YOUR HELP! I am in contact with Merck in Denmark, and they are VERY curious to see registers of reported cases. But WHERE do I find these official reported cases? I guess in the Danish Drug Department (Lægemiddelstyrelsen), but they are impossible to reach - so I might have to seek ‘access to documents’ there. And can someone please tell me what kind of tests they do around the World to see what kind of poison is the reason - IF they can see whether it is poison. Can someone please get me in contact with the people in Holland who fought to get it forbidden there?

Yes Moosmum. too true. as for the witch hunts to "eliminate" back yarders and or puppy farmers is pandering to the hate so many people like to be part of with no idea they too can be targeted as the parameters to accuse are so vague. spotted this quote from the Queen today and thought gee she doesn't realise this also applies to dog people. Peace and Goodwill For her holiday broadcast in 1957, the Queen was facing a historic moment. This was to be the first televised message, moving away from radio. She offered comfort in a changing world: "It has always been easy to hate and destroy," she said. "To build and to cherish is much more difficult. That is why we can take a pride in the new Commonwealth we are building." " the ankc has been busy tearing itself apart for over 20 years without realising nice as it feels to be part of the call to " to hate and destroy" those accused of being targeted as puppy farmers/backyard breeders. its about time to "To build and to cherish" before its too late for the rapidly declining still remaining before its too late.

Interesting conversation with a chap just now. his neighbour breeds, cavoodles, beagoodles and Borderdoodles. It is a totally dedicated puppy farm and the owner is on the best of terms with the RSPCA inspector who came to "audit" the place . Thanks to the mega prices the puppies bring in the place has the best of everything because they can afford to. so much for eliminating puppy farms.

meanwhile ANKC members are telling each other "we should not be asking a price that covered breeding our pups, not doing it for the money" I noticed three breeders were asking only 1,000 for their puppies and two told me that. the other didn't reply to my query why so cheap. A friend posted this today on faceplant. Why are we being encouraged to not value ourselves or our work or knowledge we put into our pups? Why is it believed to be proving your "ethical"? or as a friend asked, "is the first priority of being an ankc member today stupidity? It certainly is not the agenda of the x breeders and the people who want a pet are paying the insane prices. A giant ship's engine broke down and no one could repair it, so they hired a Mechanical #Engineer with over 40 years of experience. He inspected the engine very carefully, from top to bottom. After seeing everything, the engineer unloaded the bag and pulled out a small hammer. He knocked something gently. Soon, the engine came to life again. The engine has been fixed! 7 days later the engineer mentioned that the total cost of repairing the giant ship was $20,000 to the ship owner. "What?!" said the owner. "You did almost nothing. Give us a detailed bill." The answer is simple: Tap with a hammer: $2 Know where to knock and how much to knock: $19,998 The importance of appreciating one's expertise and experience...because those are the results of struggles, experiments and even tears.
