Thanks guys, this is the first time in 6 years/3 litters that we have lost a puppy. BB

ok an update. We lost our girl today, the brother is doing fine. :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: BB

Well, we had a tiring day & night. Most of yesterday (Tues) Jess was huffing & puffing and some straining, then decided to sleep in the arvo. BUT she would not let me out of the room. Then in the evening more panting & some straining and digging up her paper. Just after midnight she whelped a black girl 208gr Waited two hrs decided to shred the newspaper then gave us a black boy 180gr then decided to sleep. So we just made the May thread. All are doing fine. The girl is certaintly heavy average is approx 140gr I think. BB

Ours are in the sit position. BB

Good on ya BB for doing this. If the VCA wont advertise it on their web site, what about in their weekly/fortnightly email called AT A GLANCE? I don't have a neuter but I am all for this class as one day we might have a neuter. Will search for this page and join in. BB

Good luck everyone & rug up incase its cold. I am not entered but OH is stewarding. BB

Is there any results from today or has everyone frozen??? BB

Have the pups been to the vet yet? What was the outcome? BB

I think a friend of mine in SA went to Two Wells just to see if a virgin male had a good sperm count before an interstate bitch flew to him, cost was about $80-$100 I think. Good luck & I hope you get the result you are after. BB

PomsNZ I am sorry to hear about your girl. :( Congrats LizT on your arrivals, that boy certaintly did make you wait. Ours are still in the oven and hoping for a day time arrival although the other two litters were night time births. BB

Good Luck Angelsun with the rest of the whelping. Any news from PomNZ? Wednesday is our day 63 from first mating. BB

Then why is it I have seen people at shows with the kits & paperwork to do this? I thought you had to get a licence to do it?? BB

Even if DAHLET are no longer breeding they may like to hear of an update on how one of their dogs is going. I know I would like to hear from one of our previous buyers from 10 years ago. Keep up the search and see if you can find a ph number for the breeder. BB

To me Puppy farm conjures up an image of rolling hills with cows & sheep. Nice looking house with picket fence, perhaps some chickens & horses & dogs running around doing doggy things. This is not the place most oodles etc are coming from. I would call them Puppy MILLS as they are churned out at a regular rate. just my opinion since everyone are calling them farms. Thundercat, is there any progress with your neice? BB

Hi ALL, How'd you go today? Was the weather nice? Does anyone have the grp 7 results from today (Friday)? Thank you BB

Thanks for that folks, hoping my numbers are in the PO box today (Friday). has any ones cheques been banked yet? Heres a link to the Seymour forecast so far. Looking all right. http://www.bom.gov.au/vic/forecasts/seymour.shtml BB

Is it just me or is this pregnancy seem to be dragging on? It feels like that Jess has been pregnant forever. BB

Hi All, I was wondering if anyone has had their cheque cashed and numbers received? Positive we put in a return envelope but haven't got our numbers or cheque cashed, hopefully they arrive before Friday so I don't have to contact the busy secretary. BB

It isn't just a case of publishing the schedule. There are rules to be followed and one of those rules (at least in NSW) is to have the schedule and judges contracts into the CC 5 months before the show. In Vic it has to be at the VCA 5 months prior to show date IF you want it published in vicDog OR if you don't want it published in Vicdog it has to be there 4 months prior. IF the club has the schedule into the VCA within the four month time frame why couldn't they ask for it to be slipped into the packaging? Or just advertise it elsewhere??? BB

Thats a shame if they missed the cut of date, but couldn't they ask to just have it slipped into the plastic bag as a loose sheet? Or have it included on the VCA web site? Ozshow or even here? Emailed to breed clubs (yes I know there would be lots of work involved in that idea.) BB

Angelsun, she certaintly has a belly full. :D Congrats on the babies so far. BB

Love that cute fluffy face. That stacked shot is soooo good. BB

Bugger I forgot this will be held tonight. I Hope they get a good turn out as these events were fun last year. BB

I have not seen it either, I can't remember who started a thread about this new club awhile back. Hoping they will be back soon. BB

Why do all show suits have to be a skirt??????????? I can not find any colored suits with PANTS in a plus size. Can any one point me in the right direction?? BB
