  1. They defiantly do! But I want the water I use on my lawn to be 100% effective. What is a euro? Do you have wild European cars in the outback!? LOL euro There are four sub species of the Euro. M.r. robustus, Eastern Australia, QLD, NSW and north eastern Victoria. M.r. woodwardi, North Western Australia, Kimberly, WA and Arnhem land NT. M.r. Isabellinus, is restricted to Barrow Island, WA. M.r. erubescens, distrubution into most states of Australia excluding Victoria and Tasmania. Each sub species differs in physical colour and size. Size - head and body length 1110-1985mm, tail length 535-900mm. Weight 7-60kg males. 6-28kg females. look here
  2. mind you - any lawn needs lots of water! :) We have an old buffalo lawn , which I have to water & water to keep up with the grazing kangaroos, rabbits & euros!! :p
  3. It's not suspicious ... but also not clear ;) if you had said that you were thinking of getting XYZ dog - what health problems do these breeds suffer from , and can they be fixed/managed ...:)' /> Standards, and minis may also differ
  4. looking so good! i would think if she were going to have a reaction to clipping it would have happened by now ?
  5. Hi :) Is this research associated with school/uni/advertising , or just your own interest?
  6. it is doable - however , 7 days every week , it is your responsibilty to accompany the dog outside for training, toileting & exercise . Your unit needs to be safe - any barking ,etc will need to be addressed ,and it is a whole new lifestyle ;)
  7. :) she is such a sweet girl around humans - but her nickname is 'piranha'- she is deadly if she feels at all threatened by any creature . pint sized- but ferocious! hence her name - given her as a very tiny baby .... ;)
  8. full of dog bed washing , the big barrow was " little Bitch"'s choice when she came home tonight.... :) (she is Don's mum and had been mustering goats up hill & down dale )
  9. yes A chiropractor - walking on a collar instead of a harness - walking with another dog - walk in a totally different area - ok - something else. What if he is driven a couple blocks away from home .. a route he knows - and set off to walk home ??
  10. it does really sound as if he may have a pain issue , and I agree with the suggestion of a chiropractor visit :)

  12. if she ate it .. it could well be - perhaps no more food tonight, and see how she is tomorrow?
  13. have you taken him to somewhere in a car ? How far does he walk then?
  14. ;) looks like he would love to be a stockyard or truckie dog ..he could bark & bark !!
  15. No - as green tripe is meat/fat :) if they eat horse poo/graze grass , & eat the occasional bit of fruit - they are well covered in the vegetable department , IMO ;)
  16. I have just watched & shared :) Love the idea ! Terrific pics - all sorts of moods & weather ...
  17. Actually , her not eating the dry stuff ..sounds as if she doesn't need it! :) her little tummy cannot hold heaps - and if she has home cooked , plus bones, plus chicken necks - she is getting good food!
  18. Love that last photo :) Glad it's going well . Another week & you'd never guess :)
  19. What else is she eating to stay alive ? is she able to chew/eat bones/treats? has she had a vet check ? How long do you try a new brand for ? Do you hand feed the dog ? is food left down for her to nibble , or does she get set meals ?
  20. Best of luck with the poor old boy - not what he needs- or you
  21. I would suggest that you try meds - BUT please get a consult with a Veterinary behaviourist - NOT your GP vet . That way you can also ask about crating .Not sure if that would have him anxious with nowhere to go /nothing to do to alleviate it .Other habits may develop...?
