Having a rare breed of dog it has been brilliant for talking to people overseas, I have made some great friends from over the oceans, lol ;) and been able to find out much more from actually talking to people swapping photos etc, than I have ever found out on here for my breed. I can talk to heaps of friends, not just doggy friends, its a great way to share family photos etc, and yes we like to have our brags as well, find out who is going where organise what to take to shows, ask for help if needed, advice, and its answered pretty quick too, and with little of the arguing that tends to go on other forums. I like that fact if you dont like someone or you dont want certain people looking into your business you can delete and block them unlike on say a forum like this where everybody can still see you posts regardless, and yes it can be useful for free advertising but hey who wouldnt want that?? ;) I have found I can keep in cocntact with people whom I normally only see at shows, giving the huge distances we have to travel to shows out here, cheaper than STD phonecalls, we have live chat !! facebook isnt a pointscore, like DOL, so whats the problem? as for the bragging I love to know who won what where !

I have wondered about these as well, trouble is the ones I can find dotn have the coloured materials I like,

I hate things like that, I revceived a text from a man the other day wanting to know more about my BRT, no thanks just a Mobile number and him demanding that I call him back, I dont think so sunshine.....

keep up the great work Sway !! oh and you have a prefix on there called : MACNALLEM its a Border Collie prefix you have unknown next to it , it belongs to friends of mine just trying to help, lol

Thanks for that Fifi, very much appreciated :D a freind of mine has semen stored with them, she isnt on the internet I will give her a call and tell her whats going on incase she hasnt ben informed by them, its all a very stressful worrying time for everyone involved, and it all could have been so easily avoided...very sad state of affairs

ok then ......so is Frozen Puppies NSW up on the Central Coast still going ?? or has it or will be closing its doors too ????

When I have people ask me this I say...... " how long is a piece of string ? " lots of factors, stud fee, vet fees, food for bitch in whelp, food for babies after whelping at weaning etc, possible emergency caesar, vaccinations microchipping, and taking time off work.. the list is endless... a large breed litter may cost more than a medium breed and again depends on the circumstances. a couple of good examples... Large breed/giant litter a friend of mine had a couple of years ago, Stud fees + AI collection , stud dog In VIC bitch in QLD semen transport etc Vet fees for AI, plus ultrasounds during pregnancy extra trips to Vets when something seems to be wrong. emergency Caesar.....2 pups one live one still born... weeks off work, feeding and caring for ill bitch and one pup, one pup fit and healthy, she was sold to myself, lol :D $1000's of dollars out of pocket. Medium breed.... take bitch to stud dog 6 hour drive + overnight stay bitch at stud for two days...drive home 1 ultrasound to confirm pregnancy bitch delivers 8 healthy babies, pups weaned and fed microchipped vacc etc, all but one sold, that 1 kept here to show, funny I am not sure if I made a profit or not and I dont care, my main concern is that all babies arrive safely , the bitch is well, and they go to great happy homes! I think if any breeder stops to think about the costs and not to mention the emotional input and bloody hard work, took note it would be scary and we wouldnt breed at all !!
