RallyValley Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 It's like I would be semi curious to start up a 'Rare Retriever Breeds' club for Chessie's, Toller's, Flat Coats and Curly Coats. I know Flat Coats have a national club but none of these breeds has a club in WA (and most of these breeds dont have a club anywhere in Australia).

Guest belgian.blue Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 Could someone please write down easy directions to Leighton dog beach? Maybe the closest cross road/traffic lights? Really want to start going there this summer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although last time it was advertised as sashes for BIG/RUIG at the open show.... and they werent handed out, as they had run out - i was dissapointed as my boy got BIG!!!

Daydreamer Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 Hi ........ I have some news We get our Ridgeback puppy two weeks on friday She's a show dog and we're totally new to the showing side of things, not quite sure how we'll cope but we're willing to give it a go! How soon do you have to start booking your place, do I wait till we have her? Not too sure what her show name is yet and I assumed you'd have to put this on the form . Here's a photo of Nala Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lab_Rat Posted November 24, 2009 Author Share Posted November 24, 2009 Woo-Hoo only two weeks to go Daydreamer!!! Better get lots of sleeps in before then ... Seriously tho, HOW EXCITING On the showing side of things - there will be heaps of WA peoples willing to help you believe me! But ridgy specific, rijbiz and wash are two WA ridgy showers. I used to be but sadly not anymore . So any questions - PM those guys! Regarding the show entries, each show has a closing date for entries. The bi-monthly DogsWest magazine has all the show ads in it - when you get your girl, you will need to become a member of CAWA/DogsWest to show your dog. Im sure your breeder will help you out with all the rego and related stuff!! Im pretty sure someone takes showing classes at DogsWest too, very helpful if youre a newby! Good luck with your new kid too, enjoy her while she is still "small". They grow so damn fast, I can barely remember what Zola was like as a baby! I hope you get some more useful info from more experienced showies than me!!!!! Rat PS - How was Albany guys?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was my fault that we didn't get the Group ribbons up in time but all the group winners were told that if they wanted their ribbons that we would post them!!!..............all you had to do was write down your name & address I'll get one for you if you still want it???

Daydreamer Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Thanks guys, it is a little scary this show business. We're nervous enough about getting a new puppy and trying not to stuff up the 'normal' puppy training/obedience :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SparkyTansy Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 trust me, puppy breath it is an acquired smell which doesn't last long and you will miss as soon as "loosing teeth" breath sets in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
