Let me know when you head down next I'd like to take my little Beagle boy down and would be great to meet up!

He was bred by Aasky Kennels up here in Darwin but is out of two Breilla dogs (Ashanali on here) Thanks so much for the comments!

He doesn't have a name yet...

I wish I had a dog show to go to last night! What she said

A litter has to be registered on one day - there is no way to individually give a puppy a date of birth. Just pick one day or the next... I can imagine it'd be the next coherent day HAHA

Stick with your age class. They are only that age once and have years to come to enter the older classes. I find at Specialties less emphasis is put on the class and the age as a specialist is looking at a dog for that dog not for the if's but's and maybe's of how they grow or don't grow.

This is one of our new babies. His name is Brock excuse the pic he was slipping

I'll face the firing squad. We did it once. She was in the car in the back with me for the 4 minute drive to the show grounds. It was a small show, less than 50 dogs and she never left the trailer once we arrived. Great puppies too. Not an issue with any of them and mum was comfortable and whelped freely. If it had been an ordinary show we wouldn't have considered it but it was a specialty we didn't want to miss. *flame suit engaged

I wish people would remember thier code of ethics before openeing thier mouths and spreading rumors. (Not something I have expirenced much or that I am aware has happened to me. The problem with these listed Ethics is they directly relate to a dog, not the member, the member's family etc.

I wash out my shampoo, the effect of the shampoo remains. Nothing wrong with that.

Baby - 3-6 months Minor - 6-9 months Puppy - 6-12 months Junior - 9-18 months Intermediate - 18-36 months State Bred - 6 months and over and bred in the state/territory Aust Bred - 6 months and over and bred in Aus Open - 6 months and over and open to all dogs bred outside of Australia and anyone else that wishes to enter it. I think that's right.

I could check, but I seem to recall that that is not allowed. We aren't allowed to wash our dogs anymore?

The Dogs NT President presented the first Neuter Champion a trophy today. The young handler was a very happy young lady!

The people that suck all the fun out of showing. Show your dogs and be happy with whatever happens.

I love it. I live vicariously through the great photos and news posted by those in the Southern States. Love to see who's winning and what's out there. I can keep my boys breeder up to date with his wins and have bragged about my guys. I'm proud of them so usually brag everywhere hahahaha I have seen the normal nasty comments or under the table comments that are really so obtuse an outsider wouldn't have a clue what is going on. The funniest thing I saw was someone who congratulates in one sentence and then in the very next is basically saying they only won because xyz wasn't there HAHA

We allow our judges to make the call. Some judges prefer to get it done at the same time, others like the idea of a lap of honour. The latter is the more common

I got two answers on the Sibe.. Sniper or Cougar hmmmm

50 dogs???? It is an impossibility to ensure that all 50 dogs are given proper care and invidual attention. Yes, that does constitute a puppy miller! She is breeding as a means to earn herself a considerable income and that is a NO NO. It is a disgrace! Thank you for proving what I thought of you - you have zero knowledge and have a poor attitude. I'm sure the personal recommendations that this lovely woman has from the people below mean nothing to you and you won't apologise but more full you for judging a book by the zero minimal cover. Thank you but I forgot to tell you Pat's a little on the chubby side at the moment - really should get her back in show condition the fat cow My above friend has had two litters in the last few months, 1 Whippet and 1 Beagle and I think has another due in a month or so for yet another breed. All up she owns about 7-8 breeds - I don't see a problem with it. 50 dogs???? It is an impossibility to ensure that all 50 dogs are given proper care and invidual attention. Yes, that does constitute a puppy miller! She is breeding as a means to earn herself a considerable income and that is a NO NO. It is a disgrace! Actually I've sent two of my dogs there. A much loved boy and a girl that was my pride and joy. I couldn;t be happier with the time and effort that goes into those dogs. The boy sleeps in the kennels, which is fine by me, that's where he was here. The girl, lives in the house and baby sits the smaller breeds. This lady is so far from a puppy farmer that it's not funny. Immaculate house, dogs kennels, acres of grass and care that is second to none. You should be very careful not to judge a breeder by their numbers. Where exactly did you send your dogs? are we talking about the same people that the poster is speaking of? If that is so, then I am relieved to hear that the dogs are well looked after! Even so though, I personally am of the belief that dogs should be a part of the family and not live their life in a prison cell. I went around there today actually - imagine my horror when I went into the main house yard and saw 8 dogs lounging around on their beds and the Whippet babies making trouble on the grass. I was even more shocked to go inside and see 6 gorgeous (well I think ones ugly but he bites me extra hard on the toe every time I say it to him) 4 week old Beagle babies chewing on my toes after dragging themselves away from the milkbar and the other token mum our old Pug girl. Then in the back half of the house was about 10 others running amok out the back. That only accounts for about half - the rest were moping in the kennels each run with it's own undercover and grassed area and most of them are in the end 4 runs which all go out to an acre each. I know if reincarnation is possible I want to come back as a dog owned by someone half as terrible as this woman. Well said. I'd love to live there Thanks Megz If she is breeding for money she's doing it wrong ;)

EF and IR must be the same person. I don't know about anyone else but I don't do it for the applause or the accolade I do it because I love showing off my dogs and my dogs love being shown off. That extra run around the ring has no pressure and is all fun, an In Group line up has that nervous anticipation and that little bit of tension to it which I love and I might be the only one who gets it still but it's awesome to let that all go and let the dog fly around the ring without a care in the world.

To go around again????

My thoughts exactly. I usually float around the ring at that point haha

Shit if more than 20 dogs makes you a Puppy Mill my friend is f***ed she has closer to 50 dogs. I'm sure the assumptions can fly purely on that fact. My above friend has had two litters in the last few months, 1 Whippet and 1 Beagle and I think has another due in a month or so for yet another breed. All up she owns about 7-8 breeds - I don't see a problem with it.
