  1. Was great. These guys are a wealth of knowledge and it was good to see Little Dave and Sandy. A great clip of her before she lost her leg.
  2. My boss looked at him briefly today. He has a lot of what I call "yeh but" spots. I think he has got away with a lot of evasive behaviour so carries on when you handle certain areas. Its not all pain as he does it when I know what I am dooing is not painful, like brushing where there is no knots. Such a big girl lol. When hes put on a bit of condition and of worked on allowing me to handle all over comfortably, I will get him desexed and probably take an xray while he is under. Temperament to die for with people and dogs so far
  3. Hey Roz. I have thought of you often and wonder how you are. I'm well and still pop in now and again. Still have most of the dogs, lost my old goldie a year ago. Doing the NDTF course so I can further my behaviour work in my clinic. Thats one reason I took on this boy....plus, i just loved the look on his face.
  4. He is such a friendly boy. Forgets his manners but working on it. Not housetrained grrr. He greets everyone like a long lost friend and has taken being told off by the others in his stride with no sign of retaliation. The only thing that bothers me is the back end. He is skinny and has no muscle but I am concerned that his hips arent good. Has a strange gait and loses his feet if he turns quickly. Hoping that building up strength and decent diet will improve him. Time will tell
  5. This boy arrived here today. He is so friendly and played with my other shep, a border and my swf. Am a little concerned re his hips but he has NO muscle and is very skinny so will give him some time to build back up to what he should be and get him checked at my work. Thanks to Blacktown pound (from the forum) for the pics and getting me some info on him, hope you dont mind if I post the pic you sent me but didnt get home till 5pm so no pics of my own yet
  6. This was a great day (always is) even tho' I am just there to watch and take pics. As someone who loves to watch dogs do what they were bred to do, I love seeing HG work with these dogs and see the joy on the owners face when there dogs "get it" Fantastic!
  7. As someone who has the chance to have the course paid for by my work, I am after opinions as to which one to do. I attended the recent seminar for Delta in Sydney (I am from Melb) and have mixed feelings about the limitations of positive only.
  8. He is only a baby, but he is a kelpie after all and being raised with Ben the "2 legged kelpie" and a rotty, what hope does he have Fiona doesnt have a car. Says she really likes your boy, Scout isnt it?
  9. Hey herding guy, spoke to a mutual friend from Frankston today. She has your dogs half brother. (and a kelpie with 2 bung legs Hope you all have a great day
  10. That is just beautiful. Brought tears to my eyes. What a special old girl she must be
  11. Hi Kath, Just thought I would let you know there is a behaviour trainer in Ballarat that our vet clinic recommends. I have seen her work and heard great reports from clients. If you ring Ballarat family petcare in Victoria St, they will give you her number. She may have some more ideas for you.
