That is certainly bad news about the collars I shall stop sharing .

BAD PK ... BAD!! LOL They are very nice looking ..and also look soft

wish I had spare money ... I can see pudden in one of these collars!

@PossumCorner They are so lovely MUCH quicker than a honeybee .. and of course in way smaller numbers It's one of my favourite challenges ...trying to get a decent image :D

Went hunting Blue banded bees yesterday ... (native..pretty, and very fast!)

wow!! that lorikeet !! :D love the BTN <3

That is a pretty angry face :P

12 weeks ?in OP

Agree with Mjosa. Also , contact the breeder and let them know .

LOL .. because it has an instant response ..seen by the owner to be amazing ..and so creates a dependence immediately .

Lovely swans

Perfect !! She knows her spitz breeds well, too

Took this last week in the Big Smoke , when my friend & I took my 93 y o aunt from out of the walls & blaring TV at her nursing home to a few seaside spots .She couldn't get out of the car , but so enjoyed watching the crowds, all the different dogs, and even a few boats

"Crown of Thorns"..one of the Euphorbias, I believe . Tough as old boots ... spectacular flower colour

YES. Why is he allowed the opportunity ? Dogs don't need to go to dog parks . really . he can have plenty of exercise and fun with you .... and learn all sorts of things He can socialise with known dogs , and enjoy company that way I do hope you can be recommended a good professional to help you both.

baby venomous snakes around the house are sent to their ancestors - as they are more dangerous than adults who have learned how to control envenomations . We have numerous , gorgeous yellow-faced whip snakes who are left alone ... they are small mouthed, dainty little beasties - very fast , and they are acceptable garden dwellers . While venomous, not dangerous ..and lovely to watch .

A little smartphone 'Spring' contribution ...

Thanks for a good news update

@Whiskeys Mum A few ideas : Carry a hiking pole or similar to thump on the ground to let snakes know you're coming ..(they feel the vibratiion) Only ever walk in a clear area, with great ground visibility . Only ever walk in the coolest part of the day . never walk in the dark Always make sure there is some mobile coverage , so maybe you can remain with a bitten animal, and have help come to you ..someone to help carry , perhaps . Make sure you have one or two proper snakebite bandages ..it's not only dogs who get bitten after all !

We have the occasional litter of working Koolies ... they do very well on natural weaning / supercoat puppy kibble and HEAPS of large meaty bones .. plus a mix of raw food. Every pup/dog is different, as is every budget and lifestyle usually dogs only get excess fat from their humans feeding too much food ..no matter what the food . ;)

Sorry you lost your girl . Rescue dogs can be any combination of breeds - but it's temperament which counts

wow, @Canisbellum ! Lovely crisp and detailed photos.. and great things seen & recorded No way would I drive those tracks :P

It was wonderful to see these ratbags last saturday Not any decent pics of Enzi ... he was moving at the speed of light !! Always love your beautiful images, Griz.... ...thank you .
