<br /><br /><br />I found some on ebay ... LINK (sorry) puter being silly http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/SCOTTIE-ALLNIGHT-3-PACK-MICROWAVE-HEAT-PAD-BED-WARMER-HOT-WATER-BOTTLE/251978081585?_trksid=p2047675.c100012.m1985&_trkparms=aid%3D444000%26algo%3DSOI.DEFAULT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20140107090229%26meid%3Dce048a2c30cd409d8961e2d589ee0d09%26pid%3D100012%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D3%26sd%3D251974348751

I think xylitol is used in protein bars/mixes that have PB in them ... not actual peanut butter. BUT , yes, it also in sugar free stuff like sweets/chewing gum ....

yesterday , I came across these! k&H microwaveable pet bed warmer

just looked at ours- Dick Smith , crunchy Sanitarium - no added sugar/salt ...( the pig/dog one) NO Xylitol listed

That is sounding positive :) Do we get photos of the cutie in question???

<br /><br /><br />ha!- I told him about DOL dog, Stan ...MISTAKE. last night, one of the coldest ..at - 2 ..he took his water dish into his bed - and yes- it had water in . Seems a Stan-ish idea ;) Sorry ,hazywal.

..Boy, Molly is blessed with you as her family , really :) We do need some cute snoozy/happy pics , you know ;)

leah - ok :)

I love the photo of her in pink :) She is a lucky puppy to have such an owner !

....and I definitely would NOT be passing on the breeder's name to friends wanting a pup. several red lights there.

<br /><br />I'd add some extra water to her dinner too if you aren't already <img src='http://www.dolforums.com.au/public/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /><br /><br /><br /><br />why not take the cone off a few times a day and encourage/tell her to have a drink? That seems to me easier than syringing ;) ?

poor pup. food amount seems to be fine - she is certainly not thin :) Perhaps she has learned to do blah blah, and the food appears! ;) There have been lots of posts on D O L about itchy staffies - and blue staffies with problems - go up to 'search' - type in itchy staffy , or similar , and see what you might find . I would also suggest you look at some supplements to help her immune system - it will be working so hard coping with everything itchy, plus vaccines , plus whatever flea/wormer she has . The tooth/jaw thing concerns me a bit - did the vet say the adult teeth would grow in straight ? It would be awful if a jaw misalignment means she needs teeth removed etc .

it's Ok - he is from working dog parents ... and he has no intention of killing/eating - even The Boss said he was smart for bringing a sheep home - it's not an easy thing to do at all - to steer/guide a sheep away from their mob , over an open paddock , in past other dogs and vehicles ... yesterday I watched Don ... we were out walking - and one silly rabbit decided to run from the bushes .toward our yard - they go in & out freely ..at present. Anyhow - rabbit took off - so did Don, but at an angle , which I thought was weird - UNTIL - Don went to where the gate was open - dashed thru that, and was waiting for the rabbit as it came thru a hole in the fence!! No, he had no hope of catching it - BUT , showed me that he can think/anticipate pretty well :) Wish I could stay focussed and do some training with him .....

Doofus Don , dear Don , dashing Don , ....damn Don ..... I had him loose for a run just now ...checked, couldn't see anything to chase .. came back inside , only to hear some of the other dogs in a state of excitement. I saw, around 300 mtrs away , a black streak running around the sheep - until one stubborn old ewe broke away .. I saw him start to run after her , jumped in the 4WD , and prepared to rescue her - just as she came racing past me,with Don guiding her path . She then stopped , nostrils flaring and probably thinking "WTF" !.... standing with her bum against the garden fence - at which point the black beast came over to me - happy as larry!! The ewe stood there for a minute, getting her bearings - then trotted , stifflegged and bug-eyed, back out into the paddock . I will have to get myself into some sort of training mode ....just can't find it

How sad for you the breeder needs to be told immediately . Bottle feeding? if pup was smaller while breast feeding - then a bottle won't really help, IMO. Please -- don't let your heart rule your head - get a very thorough check of this pup - how is his eating/breathing going to cope as he grows ... will he be able to run /cope with hot weather ...will he be at a big risk of infections? Will he possibly get food into his airway , and maybe get aspiration pneumonia??? These are things you NEED to think about - the poor puppy should have been thoroughly checked before sale - the breeder has let you, and him, down. he should not have been rehomed with congestion, and /or breathing problems :( Thinking of you ....

She has grown into such a lovely looking girl :) her coat is SO good ! I am pleased to see an update ...although it seems no time since you first got her ...

<br /><br />Pers, I think we need to keep feeding Jed a Boxer thread every now and again, <img src='http://www.dolforums.com.au/public/style_emoticons/default/rofl1.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> so that we can see those gorgeous photos again.. The three in a bed is just precious.<br /><br /><br /><br />:) good plan !

Look at the bed-full-of-boxers :D How wonderful .

our cliffs are 70 feet high .....and are popular with all sorts of birds :)

Kirty - love the landscape you caught - and the golden colour :)

and part of our 'driveway' ....

Took this yesterday - kinda landscape ...

LOL I thought Justice was a lion!! There are some wonderful shots - I like the road one as well - and the SNOW :) r
