I believe you are correct. It is VEGAN policy. And Vegans are not green ..... but? dont they eat green

good grief! I wonder if they really recovered completely? i well remember one of my dads favourite dogs, he got it and was nursed through it and thought to have recovered and did seem fine for nearly a year. then it was noticed he would be playing or whatever and suddenly freeze. imobile to the extent you could pick him up and he was fixed like a stuffed toy?? just as suddenly he was un frozen and continue as if nothing had happened.. it was weird took him to the vet but he couldnt find anything wrong, that is until he went to take his tempretare and he again froze lke he had been doing. he couldnt even move his jaws let alone legs. he apparently had suffered brain damage. thats one dreadful disease. im so glad its virtualy extinct today

are you serious? so where did you get you dog from? naughty. good question though.

yep thats it. why dont u just solve your problem in one hit..... legislate no puppy can be sold for more than 100 dollars. get rid of every single pensioner that counts on her puppy pin money. and kiddo they are the bulk of the canine registries belive it or not. actually it would get rid of all but opps litters wouldnt it?

thats a no brainer....more laws mean more chance of catching more fish. like judy guard makes it easier to raise income levels

sorry steve asked the question in the wrong thread cheers

Trouble is far as i can see,,, you no longer have rights if you are a pet owner... its interesting.. they talk of you having the right to make your own decisions,, if you kill someone you are innocent until proven guilty.. although that Gabe watson (is that his name?) can kill his wife of 11 days.. do a plea bargain... get 18 months.. and... the very same govt lawers that got him that fairy smack... wont let him be taken to the states until THEY are guaranteed he wont face the death penalty over there.... that guy HAS RIGHTS... as for the dead wife? dont see her getting parole or rehabilitation any time soon. BUT you want a pet dog or cat or whatever and what are u? GUILTY UNTIL proven innocent,, and anyway if you do attract attention and they cant find something to charge you with the smoke taint never lifts... is this world sick and getting sicker by the minute?? looks like it to me anyway

"10. Stop any further breeding of companion animals, including purebred dogs and cats. Spaying and neutering should be subsidized by state and municipal governments. Abolish commerce in animals for the pet trade. Excellent progress has been made. The gene pools left in Australia after all the spaying and neutering over the last 15 years have now been substantially weakened. Oh yes, and all the blame is now cast on the breeders of purebred dogs, not the people who have desexed animals that should have been left in the gene pools. Another victory!" thats the victory that worries me the most, is it too late to stop the slide into extinction? Number 6 dare not comment on, always gets me labled hysteria mongering

"12. Prohibit the genetic manipulation of species. This one might take a while. Evolution has shown that Mother Nature is quite capable of manipulating genes all by herself and definitely had a headsup! Now, where were we ...... " love it Souff trouble is now if it shows up in a dog, then its automatically the breeders fault..... they did it... mother nature and evolution dont happen only unethical breeders happen..... sigh :D

lot of ticks or near ticks already n fifi dont kid yourself its all is the intention

good one erny has it occurred to any one all these dog laws or more politically correct than actually realistic? still cant get my head around the one that snared judy guard is still out there unamended

well ive tried google to try and find where it came from. found three talking about it http://www.nawcc-ch149.com/ch149mb/viewtop...d5ab8c350b50845 http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2634124/posts http://quasi-superspooge.blogspot.com/2010...orrectness.html

i think dumpage is a public education issue how has it come about that in so many quarters that its being slated to the actual breeder of the dumped dog being treated as the cause is a bit beyond me?

Water does nothing to dogs that are intent on fighting.All it does is make them wet and harder to grab hold of. not quite so. keep the hose full bore on the nose, preferably straight up the nose if you can so it fills with water, and guess what? they cant breathe.... have to let go and youve the chance to pull them apart while spluttering... worked a treat when two cattledogs latched onto each other. partdrowned the worst agressor, then turned it on the other when he tried to renew the attack while the half drowned was being dragged away

There is a contest at University of New Brunswick calling for the most appropriate definition of a contemporary term. This year's term was: "Political Correctness". The winner wrote: "Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a piece of shit by the clean end."

my brother was in that situation.. three, or was it 4? greyhounds. certainly more than they are legally allowed to walk, pulled their trainer over and went after his shetland sheepdog. run certainly wasnt an option. he scooped her up and held her as high over his head as he could. the greyhounds trying to climb him.. being nearly 6 foot helped a bit and them being muzzled certainly had to hold the pose until the trainer caught up with them and pulled them off. his dog not panicking or trying to jump from his hands probably saved her life too.

ummm since when is wringing its neck and putting it into some form of shock which is patently obvious, acceptable on ANY level?

there is a vet near north ryde that work in collaboration with engenic and their success rate against lymphoma is amazing anyone who wants to give their dog a chance at total cure. they already have theruns on the board.. its called nano cell technology Lane Cove? and brain cancer is the one they are working on now.. have 2 dogs tested totaly gone in mri scans still cancer free 2 yrs on, they were so affected they could barely control themselves when treatment began

come to think of it. its not just herding dogs that think for themselves . neighbours had a filly and a gelding by a stockhorse at oberon. went to visit their breeder to show off their champion ribbons. he was comming in with a mob of cattle.. n rode over to the fence to talk to them as the cattle went into the yards. wasnt watching the cattle but his mount obviously was. suddenly his horse took off so fast he was left in midair to land in a heap. his horse? flat gallop to the yards to block the cattle which had decided to come back out the still open gate. horsie, blocked em.. n stood in the gate.. pointedly looking back at the fallen rider... with "hey get here and shut the gate? i cant do it all by myself" apparently he had also finished yarding the cattle and would wait at the gate if his rider came off during the muster.... rider had a tendency to go out bareback n halter so if things got hairy he occasionally did come off. n his horse didnt bother waiting for him, if the cattle were moving fast.

dont forget the kelpie. still remember a friends story. he had a sick filly. had put her in the house paddock seperate from the mob. she was in the far corner and the main mob on the other side of the fence keeping her company. he sent his kelpie to go get her into the yard to medicate. she flatly refused to leave the tree and her mates on the other side of the fence. dog looked to him for direction,,,he? rolling with laughter at the dogs discomforture.. so what does his dog do? jumped the fence, moved the mob down towards the stockyards n filly followed along the fence. pushed the mob along the edge of the stockyards and filly went in the gate to stay with them. dog jumped the fence and stood in the gateway. head over his shoulder as if to say.... "now get your sorry butt over here and shut the #### gate man!"

hey heres the link for those who missed it, gee the bit about our faces was a bit astonishing, which eye do u loot at? left or right? never even had given it a thought till this? n yep u have to wait till the add finishes. before the program starts.... http://player.sbs.com.au/programs#/program...he-Dog-Full-Ep/

I AGREE that is soooo weird,,, i know how desperatly i wanted to know who stole mine? n if you dont know who to watch for how do you know more wont go missing either?

just remember he may not want a friend either. i have looked after many dogs for friends while they went away or other emergencies and theres are some dogs that dont like other dogs. full stop. i well recall two that to put another with them was asking for trouble. one in particular springs to mind. loving and the sweetest to her owner and people.. would go for the kill the second another dog was in the same area. should she have been put down? her pensioner owner adored her and she her, great with the grandkids. tolerate another dog... no way.

well said. more like unreality show

It's not important enough for me to stick it on my calendar. And I know there are others who dont agree with me and think the shows is great. Good on them . I watched a new Australian film the other night and thought it was absolutely brilliant. There are more people on the internet movie data base forums who think it's garbage. No big deal to me. I dont take it personally - not sure why people who like the show and love Dr Chris are getting their knickers in a twist that a lot of people here are saying the show is unrealistic. If you watch the film critics on The Movie Shw say your fave film is garbage, is that going to upset you? No it's not going to upset me at all and that's why I love the freedom of speech. I don't take this personally and I haven't noticed my knickers in a knot what you are forgetting is there is an element that do not think anyone with dogs has freedom of speech or decisions anymore.. look at all the legislation thats being passed and contemplated all in the name of "in the best instrests of the dogs" like how is the law that meshed Judy guard in the best interests of anyone ? well except for income generation for the rspca? this is one section of australian citizens who are losing their freedom of choice all in the name of "for the greater good" so dont presume democracy is alive and well for all eh?
