  3. Thank you. The honeyeaters were at Werribee Zoo. There were a lot of them! The Red Hot Pokers were very popular.

  7. I've been away from Dogzonline for awhile (marriage & kids), so thought I'd share some photos of our current dogs. This is our oldest, Fox (13 years). Fox by Diane, on Flickr Desmond (11 years).

  9. Fox's dryish coat returned to being soft, sleek and shiny after I added a whole egg to his diet given every two or three days. I also feed Fish Oil which I think helps...
  10. Thanks for sharing that LisaJ and what a nice story about the boy in the wheelchair ;) .
  11. He's so cute! I look forward to meeting him one day .
  12. Thanks corvus. I was actually eyeing the bigger pup from the litter you chose Erik from. It sounded like he may have been therapy dog material...but of course I was nowhere near ready for my next dog right then. It'll probably be around 5 years before I'm ready (after Hope's gone).
  13. How do you think a SV would be for Agility? And as a Therapy Dog? And have the temperament to do both well? (Researching my next dog) And how much herding instinct is still floating around in Australia's SVs? Are there any trialling in herding in Australia?
  14. I read somewhere that adding a little Apple Cider Vinegar to the water helps stop the growth of algae. Haven't tried it myself though...
  15. Thanks for your encouragement . Don't worry Leema, I knew you meant Link! Kelpiechick, that 'Protocol for Relaxation' sounds intriguing. I would love to see it put into action (on Youtube?) as I'm not certain I would be able to do it right. I would love a copy of what you did - I'll PM you my email. And yes, that was me with Fox at the Bendigo trial. Where I forgot my spiked agility shoes and slipped and slid in the mud all day! I'm on the verge of retiring Fox. He's nearly 9 and appears to be losing interest. I'm really looking forward to training and trialling with just Link now, if only I can get past this pressure/focus thing. It's been quite exhausting training and trialling 2 dogs at once!
