Firstly good luck in your venture and I wish you all very best. But I get the feeling that you may not be well versed in the dog world, I am just picking up on a few things you have written....like.....I am bringing a boy and a girl, when most of us would say ....dog and bitch. You also say they will be two unrelated, well....... most of us would want them related in some way to carry on the line. I am just concerned that you may be getting yourself into something that you may not be fully aware of. Do you have a person that is reliable that could help and advise you. I may be reading your post entirely wrong,(and I hope I am) but I just don't want to see any person go into a venture like this without being fully versed, as we all know how costly it can be. If you do go ahead with the imports I would be keeping them with me at all times, how about putting the dogs you already have out with foster familys with written agreements as to their breeding and wellfare.

I agree entirely.

Not true. Could pee on himself. Could have a yeast infection. Could have Anal gland problems just to name a few. The dog may just need more regular bathing.

Well done China.

I will be happy to meet you and show you around till you familiarise yourselves at Durack. I will be at Durack for Maree Kennel Club Show on the 18th Sept. I would be happy to meet you at a time that suits you on that day. I would suggest that we meet near the coffee van. I will be easy to recognise I will have an Italian Greyhound with me.

Come on China keep turning that corner.

I am assuming that this dog is on the main register??????? Why not contact breeders in Tas that may be interested in purchasing and showing this pup. There may be some who are not aware of the pups existence and would love to take the pup over.

why not build her, her own pen on concrete, out of metal with a roof, that way she will always have a safe and secure area.

Could there be a Merle parent behind the breeding somewhere ?, and the colour is just starting to break.

All I can tell is that if you don't have fleas you won't have Tape Worm. Fleas are the host for Tape worm.

Your right that's beyond a joke. I am like you...live in area where snakes are....I am ever vigilant even in winter. Sending you and China all the best.

Do what I did....take the snake with you to the vet.

This is the best I could do. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/260818463039?ru=http%3A%2F%2Fshop.ebay.com.au%3A80%2Fi.html%3F_nkw%3D260818463039%26_sacat%3D0%26Size%3D7%25252E5%26Brand%3DDiana%252520Ferrari%26_dmpt%3DAU_Women_Shoes%26_odkw%3D%26_osacat%3D63889%26_trksid%3Dp3286.c0.m270.l1313%26_fvi%3D1&_rdc=1

This is address where mine came from, A new order has been placed for a larger container for a friend. Sorry the link isn't working and I have removed it. I will keep searching for a correct one.

All I can tell you is we all survived very well with ordinary Vic C before we heard the word Ester C. I have used it (vitamin C) with great success but not in a giant breed.

Thanks Oakway. But hey ..... life might get boring if my dog didn't keep me on my toes and guessing, wondering, trialling, spending $$$$$ on him, all the time, . Don't think lamb will be the 'thing' for him, not long term at any rate. Not going by his farts. Just watching and waiting atm. But the silver lining is his teeth cleaning up . Well they say it's an ill wind that bows no good or some such thing. With owners that care the way you do I know your dog is going live a long and happy live. I dips me lid to ya. You are one that goes above and beyond the call.

Why??? were all honest people. Plus their is nothing to see in any of my dogs mouths they have clean teeth to begin with. This product for me, is to save the dogs having to get their teeth brushed, mainly the Italian's front teeth. The back ones are usually clean from all the bone she gets. Plus my dogs are shown and you never know when you may strike an overseas FCI tooth fairy. Why so defensive? Just thought it would be good to see the tartar going from the dogs. Sorry your dog has a bad mouth. :rofl: :rofl:

Yes almost golden /honey coloured. Just a brown the vet said????? I took the offending body with me to the vets to be identified, so we could use the right anti venom, alas we did not save the bitch, but one of the dogs had retribution in it's death. I saw another exactly the same colour while mowing near the kennels in the middle of summer and the one that caused the death was in the middle of summer to, so I would say it's just their colour. I get lots of browns/tigers and red bellied blacks. Snake season does not seem to end where I live in Queensland just a slowing down in the cooler months.

Yes, that was what I wanted it for. Just thought the Tranquil worked best in this case.

Oh gee, just when you thought you had things going right. I am sorry to hear that.

Orrr, I am going to upset you.....I found that "Behave" was not as good as "Tranquil". But don't forget that was in my case it may not be in yours. Best of luck with it.

Woo Hoo glad it arrived. Well I am so far pleased with the results that I am seeing. But we may not all get the same results. Lets all keep reporting back and let one an other know our outcomes. The most important thing we need to find out is....does it help our dogs, especially the ones with teeth problems. Heres hoping.
