  1. This is my first dog, (a ridgeback) he's 20 weeks tomorrow. It looks like he has a pimple on his nose. He doesn't seem bothered by it. Should I just keep an eye on it or give it a wash with something specific? Thanks.
  2. When you say 'unbacked' I see they have ones that are either ribbed or 'green' backing. Is there another version or which one would be best for my needs?
  3. Thanks Maddy, do you know where I can purchase this from? Australian Online seller? I would recommend Wolf's Den. (If you have ad's enabled, you may see their ad on top of the forum).... http://thewolfsden.com.au/ Higly recommended. And may I say, one lucky puppy to have such a grand kennel. Photos eagerly awaited! (when you are ready, of course)... Thank you Vizsla Momma. What's the benefits of the different backings? Hope the pic comes through of our very quickly growing bundle of puppy joy.

  5. Can anyone suggest what type/brand of bed/mat would be suitable for an outside dog kennel please. Would like something that water would roll off I guess so if our dear puppy (who's not going to be a puppy for too long) was wet, that it won't stay wet and make him cold. This is my first dog, so its all a bit new to me still. Thanks in advance.
  6. Yep, I did toy with that idea. :)
  7. He loves the car, we are doing all those things already. He's just getting heavy when we go between places that's all. Sorry, pretty dumb question. One way to get a workout anyway.
  8. How did everyone manage to carry their 11 week old large breed pup around prior to all his immunizations being complete. He feels as though he weighs about 10kg already!! (I have a ridgeback)
  9. Thanks for everyones replies. He is going really well in his crate. He still isn't loving his outdoor area too much, but I guess these things take time.
  10. The indoor crate is going relatively well I think. He does get upset, but seems to settle quicker than being outside. I guess because we are nearer to him.
  11. We have an indoor crate, and an outside area which is safely enclosed -- it has a shell pool, a dog bed, a kennel and we put toys in there with him. It has a grassed area where he is using to go to the toilet. He just gets really distressed when we are not with him. We play with him before we leave in the hope he thinks its a fun place, but then gets upset when we leave. We are doing the 10 - 15 minute thing, then going to get him when he is quiet.
  12. Sorry Rebanne? I'm a first time dog owner thats all.
  13. How are your pups going with your enclosures? We only just bought our boy home last night so he's not a fan yet of his outdoor area. Just wondering how long we should leave him cry and whimper until we go out and comfort him. I'm concerned about the neighbours, but know you have to do the hard yards at the start to make for a content dog. He just wants to be nears us constantly, which I understand is fairly expected. Heartbreaking time....
