  1. *a cautious * Hitting his hip pocket may help ;) Also the fact that when walking Hunter if he is castrated *oops, wrong word to use around human males* there is not that testosterone cloud surrounding him ..notifying all & sundry of his presence ;) ..and , for Juno ...the local entire dogs won't all be frantically wondering where that in season bitch is hiding ;)
  2. Oh, Jules... I am so sorry ... be kind to yourselves over the next little while
  3. That giraffe pic is smileworthy ! :D *off to flickr*
  4. Thank you for the update - glad to hear of progress already! :)
  5. .... can't say I fancy dipping my hand into a bag full of meat/offal chunks during training ;) Would it be OK with Steve to perhaps use cooked chicken for training - most dogs LOVE cooked chicken :)... have him hungry before training ..then feed him a small meal last thing at night? I have no idea, and am not going against what Steve says ... it's just a thought . Maybe ask raw feeders- put a post on the training forum ?
  6. This link MAY give you some ideas. BIG dogs should not have things like neck chops(rosettes) or chicken necks . in case of choking when gulped .. turkey necks and wings are great! CLICK HERE for the different things which can be fed :)
  7. saw the first one here two days ago - thankfully it was my favourite , a very pretty yellow-faced whip snake :) I am happy for these guys to be near the house as they have such small mouths they rarely get a chance to do much damage . The cats have been bitten on a couple of occasions with no serious harm ..and these delicate snakes are just so nice to watch :) NOT looking forward to their bigger cousins making an appearance though
  8. Ok ... can you give a bit more info - it may help in deciding what particular type of meat etc your dog needs ? Short term, or longterm ? Young dog, or old? is it for health reasons ? There are some health problems where red meat is ill advised, or where proportions need to be though about . does dog have teeth/jaw problems that it needs bite-size food? Ok! I found "THE" Thread CLICK HERE but if you need anything specific , give us a bit more info , and you may not have to wade thru pages & pages ;)
  9. Oh Dear !! Wonder what they did to annoy someone
  10. I hope you can get some answers/have another vet visit soon ... Joey is obviously not enjoying life much at present
  11. So does most of the population, councils, etc. It's not a new concept ;) That's why there are leash laws, and restrictions.
  12. yes.. Wonder if it may have been on some organic /free range farm? :) it looks great, actually !
  13. some longer coated ones HERE and one of mine when still young .. He had a very thick coat , and didn't shed heaps in Summer ...HERE
  14. OH .. I was thinking double coated dogs were only those waterproofed/'dense' coated types ... oops ...
  15. They (if anything like Koolies) don't really have a 'double' coat as I understand it .... we have had very fluffy koolies & border collies here as working dogs ..and they didn't seem to fare much worse than the very short coated ones ...
