roova- that's an interesting 'finger/featherprint!

thinking of you all , teebs

a new week here we have a happy Puddenhead . Honest ! ( look closely and you'll see a blurry waggly tail ) he is such a weird dog ... but facial expression is not the clearest a lot of the time

if you read here CLICK You will see which colours are acceptable in the Australian Breed Standard . Blue is Not one of those colours

A few days spoiling and rest while you adjust and think /feel . A part of me is saying that this latest is a not-so-gentle poke/reminder for you that time is short , and that sooner sounds a more likely plan than later . In a way , teebs, maybe , though it shortens the time you have her with you , it also relieves you of the sight of her as one very ill and rapidly fading darling dog , maybe ? I don't know ...

Oh darn . That just makes things very awkward I'm sorry ...what a silly old girl .

I think your sister is really fortunate she has access, via YOU, to DOL ..and that makes her new journey so much more informed.

THIS !! Definitely .

@Roova Nice That pink colour is incredible !!

yes!

LOL ..so does Puddy ..of course, being white *sigh* he rolls around on everything :P

The sky this morning looked MUCH nicer than the red & brown of yesterday

I do that sometimes for my bantams !! They enjoy a hunt .

Oh .! This type appeals to me nice shape, clean, look sturdy but not chunky ... Lovely little video, too. Thanks.

This video explains and shows trained dogs hunting rats in NYC CLICK here very graphic content , however it shows the effectiveness and speed of these dogs!

Oh Minxy - What a lovely memorial that tree will be Run free Kyojin, with those huge paddy paws and crooked grin ...

That must be such a good feeling

Compensatory extras are perfectly allowable , I think ;)

@natnatroswell22 .. do you have your own experience with Danes to share, as well as that quote from a website? They are amazing dogs - but possibly not quite the type being sought by the original poster

Hugs and thoughts. Is there anywhere you can send photos/videos to who may give an opinion? When I saw you had updated I thought the news would be bad , and am happy to read that Sniper's still enjoying life

That is great news I hope you all make a happy family!

Your little poodle cross is quite possibly rolling and vocalising in play/ecstasy Just like humans - and most animals ..dogs enjoy a back rub and the feel of different textures and may groan if it feels good . > he's a puppy .. and I suspect he is exploring/stretching/playing let him rub on grass, in clean sand, in autumn leaves ... it's fun, it smells grand, and it sounds as if he likes it Try to not fill him with chemicals if there is not a definite need ..he is but a baby ....

..it may have all started a couple of years ago ..if so, top marks for persistence!

The breeder needs to be notified, yes. You have taken him to the vet as a matter of urgency ..so now the breeder should be notified ASAP.

At the moment, he IS - he is being completely true to his instinctual male self -and you have allowed it by giving him free reign, unfettered by fences or your presence.
