Seems we have dogs under 12 months getting Parvo down here even though they are up to date with their vaccinations :( Very scary. I know of two who have been lost in the last month.

This worries me. I just hope because mine are older they will be fine.

Are these older dogs, not pups? That is a worry....I wonder if its a different strain.

So far a 4 and a half month old and a 6 month old, not sure exactly of the others( I have heard via the grapevine of two others), but under 12 months.

I know of a 12mo Whippet in Perth last year that apparently died of parvo but was fully immunised.

My got the trienniel vaccine of which the parvo part is a bit different - not sure exactly how- but maybe wondering if maybe it is becasue it is a newer strain?????

The local vets has had 6 cases so far that I know of, not sure of vaccination history or anything though

Just a reminder for those who haven't committed yet, Saturday the 19th of November is approaching fast,

The restaurant is now booked for the WA DOLers christmas dinner. :thumbsup:

Here's the link to the thread for anyone who needs it:

http://www.dolforums.com.au/topic/228245-perth-dol-christmas-dinner/

All info is in the thread (and in our usual fashion, a lot of extra chat that has nothing to do with it! ;))

Please consider coming along and meeting some of the people you chat to regularly online.

Ptolomy and Bedazzled, it was lovely to meet you both last night and a pleasure and inspiration to watch your dogs work. :)

I think I will take the troublesome child back to obedience classes and see if she hasn't calmed down since turning 10. :laugh:

OH was most impressed, he's now learned two new dog breeds, tollers and aussies!

Rubystar and Mason_Gibbs, nice to catch up with you two and the lab collection again too.

They generally still hold them if it's raining, whether or not people choose to run their dogs is another matter though!

According to the BOM radar it looks like we're on the tail end of it now, hopefully.

Hortfurball It was lovely meeting you and you OH Friday night.

Was all set to go when I checked the dates and realised I am judging at Albany. Sorry will have to pass on the dinner...would have loved to have gone and met up with you all. Maybe next year.

Have fun everyone :)
