NO YES YES Sorry .. but as you have said , you have no experience ..why on earth would you subject your bitch to this , when her hormones will still be all over the place ....what provisions have you made for the puppies on this day ? Someone home to feed/clean them ? heating in their bed ? and why are pups weaned at 3.5 weeks ? If it is because the bitch had no milk/other problems - then she should not be shown ... Please do some more homework on breeding dogs. What has your mentor advised ? Weaning at such a young age is unusual ..and not in pups' best interests... I took this from the RSPCA site . I do hope this is a "maybe" ..and that you have not already weaned these pups ..I really do ...

Ok ... (I'm so glad you got thru that !!) I rather was thinking of her thoughts ....

primulas ... ohhhh.. they are so delicate looking and colourful

!!!!! I do hope the links and suggestions help reduce this while giving your dog good food

Exactly . Any living thing can come into the world different/unhealthy/brain damaged/unsound.

Ahhh... that makes sense ... those last minutes would have been just awful for her Thoughts flying to her family , kennel regulars ....

Woohoo!! :D let the adventure/s begin

oh, T

Maybe have a look here ? WHERE TO BUY RAW

Any particular cuts/organs/bones? There may be cheaper options . Also for any vege content/supplements

I guess it depends on what sort of food you are feeding We may be able to suggest other meats etc to substitute for this time ?

Fingers crossed for you

just for @Scottsmum :P Is Don. Is rained-upon.

Horrible . Something obviously went badly wrong .

You have confused me . TOT ( Triangle of Temptation) is training in drive . it is teaching the dog to WAIT until you give a release ...then it is left to eat in peace, or go outside, or play with a toy ... or whatever the end result/treasure is . AFAIK ,TOT is NOT about having a dog work,access a reward only to stop and start again .....

I don't understand why you would do it ... dinnertime is for eating .

maybe have a look at these links ? https://www.optimumpet.com.au/dog-advice/dog-selector/ https://www.domain.com.au/advice/choosing-right-dog-for-your-home/

LOL .. medium ? Not a lab ! plus the shedding ....!!! 26 hrs a day First timer ... p'raps not a pug either . Brachy breed .. breathing probs ..kid/s wanting to play /hot weather ... Mini Schnauzer? Whippet CKCS maybe a Golden Retriever ...

Yes..they are the ones which have a very loud take-off burst ! .... LOVE the fly ... to share from Flickr..I go to the image click on the Download arrow/icon ... click on " view all sizes" ..then pick a smallish one .. get URL ..and paste it here/FB /wherever .

LOL ... probably !!

he's very different ... Makes me laugh sometimes ...all good !

A Crested Pigeon who was still long enough for me this morning ! (click to get larger size )

Pud, this morning ...

Mostly the Billy's horns are much stronger & larger ... luckily they grow fairly slowly , and give us time to get used to them ! The horns gets polished when goats toss their heads in shrubs etc ..the whippy branches act as brushes .. like the stropping of a razor , or those old shoe-shine guys slapping a polishing cloth over leather shoes

Looks like a scratch, really ..but it will be sore use body temp saline ...betadine...silver colloid is great for this- no smell, no sting, no stain!Calendula tea ..once again , warm , and just a few drops ... Vet if you want .. I think the problem here is how much it hurts/itches/is annoying . Shaking his head a LOT may give him a haematoma .. much worse than this original problem :P Do you have any Neotopic ? Antibiotic ear drops ?Pure Aloe vera gel? manuka honey? ( what I would do ... NOT telling you to do it ) clean and dry .. with silver colloid , or calendula tea ...and apply SOOV ointment a few times a day .....
