Emery, this is her http://www.cavalletti.com.au/listings/view/24929. They are also selling this seasons colts for $500 plus gelding fees :thumbsup:

OzJen, was that Xavi (pally boy who has been sold) or Riva (grey Andalusian x Arab who is still her but on the to sell list) lol. Or a different one all together?

Riva of course, but Xavi is beautiful too. Just something special about Riva. :( So sad that Riva is not staying but know you will find the perfect home.

Wow the whole profile thing is like facebook, you can update a status! :p It says I have 1 positive feedback already. Is that by default or how do I see which of my ramblings received a positive feed

mirrawee I'd love to have Raven :D

I use to be really obsessed with collars to the point of having to make a rule that I had to wait 3 months before buying new ones :( but lately I've actually been really good but I did just get Bear a leather puppy lead from K9 pro and it's soooooo nice :) . I always have black leather leads and just change the collars :cry: .

Well count me in as one who never spends $$ on collars and leads. However, i have been looking for a set recently as her current collar is a bit stretched and faded. RS did you see the range of Kramer ones at Better pets? They are a new range since i last was there and I thought, had some lovely patterns. I actually got a set for Rosie, but when i got it home the leash was longer than i wanted :-(, so have returned them.

I like my Woollies 0.9m leash for her but they don't do that length at BP&G, smallest was 1.2m. Anyone know of any sets with short leashes? Rosie is better behaved when she is close to me.

I would love to get her a well made leather collar - to me, foxies should be with leather collar! but she loves water so much i would have to be taking it on and off all the time.

I guess i will just get her another 'snake' Rogz collar. Kids wanted to get her the orange one, but i thought that was a sign of a dangerous dog?!?!?! DH just laughted when i told him my reservations... as in rosie a dangerous dog?!?! :-)

Rosie,

City Farmers have a fantastic range of collars and leads, well, at least the Malaga one I go to has! Their prices were were quite reasonable, too. I went to BP&G and wasn't as impressed with their range, nor Pet Stock's range, either. Also, you can take your dog/s with you and try them on for size in store -- not sure about Pet Stock but BP&G and City Farmers you can. I forgot to go to City Farmers Malaga yesterday, they were having 10% off storewide and I had a shopping list ready, I was going to get a collar and lead, some chew toys and treats, for the puppies and a present for the birds. BUM

RosieFT - yep I've seen the latest range at BP&G and almost bought some from there, but again I held off because I wanted my same pattern, different colour thing :D :) I wanted an orange collar too for Millie cos I thought it would look nice with her coat :) Oh and about the length of leads, I hate long leads too so my last set I had mum cut down for me ;) The set I just bought off etsy, I requestd a 4 foot lead as I think anything longer is a disaster! 3 foot is more my style. I can't handle 6 foot ;) The girls slip leads I bought though are 5 foot, but they aren't used for walking, they were purchased for retrieving/agility.

Annie, bugger I missed the 10% off sale! BP&G also let you take your dogs into the store. I'd assume you can with PetStock also, though I'm not sure.

Tiggy - how did Bear like his first outing? It's so hot outside already, think we'll be spending the day indoors!!

It is hot already! Got out at 8am with the 2 weasels, took them both to the reactive rover group walk, and dragged OH along as well :) It was a good walk, but Daisy found it warm already. We stopped at a cafe on the way back and had breakfast, and Daisy got accosted by a sweet little girl ;) She did ask if she could touch them first which was good, and luckily Daisy loves kids, so she lapped up all the hugs and fuss - while I had to answer a million questions about them - such as...

Are they scared of policeman? (a police car drove by)

What's that spot on her back? (just a spot ;) )

And best of all....

Do they climb trees? :D

No I had to go furniture shopping instead - bleugh! I'm hoping my new lenses arrive this week :) Then I'll be out and about too :) If I can get the car on Thursday I might be able to join you if you want some company?

Where we go for the reactive rover walks is full of birds - it's at Perry lakes Reserve and the trees were full of white cockatoos. Did you see my Carnaby's pics? They were amazing birds :)

I am getting a new (secondhand) camera body for X-Mas so I am feeling very inspired. Although I have to go through and develop them (damn RAW :) ) I got some VERY cute English Setter and Old English Sheepdog playing shots yesterday.

Oooooo, what camera? I look forward to seeing some cute doggie pics :)

Pics are in the photos thread with title 'Rare Breeds Playing' and I am upgrading to an Olympus e30. :)

Yeah some company would be good, I am not 100% sure where in the park the birds are but I believe they are so tame that they will come and sit on your hand if you have food :) my lenses should also arrive this week but OH is being mean and is making me wait until xmas day to open them and my photoshop so I am stuck with just my 18-55mm lens!!

Great shots of the Carnaby's!!! We have them flying over the pine forrest here by us but they dont come visit in our yard!

ETA there is also a cemetary up near Joondalup called Pinaroo memorial park, loads of Kangaroo's to photograph there so I may do Neil Hawkins and then stop in at the cemetery on my way home ;)

Yay for the Xolo's :) well done

We get heaps of Caranbys, they have rest stops and drink out of the troughs and strip the plastic coating of my cable they also make a mess of the trees, but we love having them. It is a real pleasure seeing large flocks come over every day.

We have just come back from our Dog Club wind up and Lewis got the highest score for Class 2 for the year and got a lovely sash - We are very proud :)
