  1. Hi all, just wondering if there are any dog rescue groups that need/want some brand new dog collars, leads, bowls and other bits and pieces.  I am in Cranbourne North.  First group to comment here (no PMs yet please) that are happy to pick up or pay for postage (a 5kg bag for $20 will fit heaps) gets it.

     

    Stock was from an old online store I have.  Brands include Dogit, Ruff Wear, Prestige Pets and more.

     

     

     

     

     

     

  2. Hi there, I'm about to embark on a cleanout of a heap of dog products (all brand new with tags). Just wondering if there is a Melbourne Rescue Group who would be interested in the goods (donated by me - no payment required)? Only proviso is you will need to pick the goods up from me in Cranbourne.

    Things would include rope tugs and other dog toys, I think there are towels, bowls etc.

    I'll have a big plastic tub full (or more than 1 not sure yet). It's all ex stock from an online store I had. I've now got a baby and sick of seeing all these dog products going to waste, don't have time to individually list them for sale.

    Would be happy to email a photo of the products to the rescue group before you make the trek to me. It will be over the next week or so.

  3. I have a ACD, she is eight.

    Super loyal and great with my nephews. Her only downside is she isn't a fan of dogs she doesn't know and she malts ALL THE TIME. Very smart too.

    My poor dogs have been housebound for a few weeks as I'm heavily pregnant and just can't walk them anymore. They have adapted well.

    I absolutely love my ACD. Best dog ever.

  4. I'd say probably a medium. Definitely not a small for a Bassett hound. I used to sell them, and remember they were quite small, more for toy sized dogs.

    My heeler who weighs 23kg wears a medium.

    They are very adjustable.

    Edited to say I don't use my webmaster anymore. It was always rolling to the side and I would have to readjust the position multiple times during the walk. I use a Red Dingo harness now and love it.

  5. I was given a beautiful Standardbred many many years ago. He was jet black and didn't have the usual thick neck and "ugly" head most Standardbreds have. I was often asked where I got my Warmblood from. The only giveaway was his brand on the neck, a long maine hid it well.

    He was an ex pacer but had a beautiful canter and trot; the pace would only come out if he was stressed or overally excited.

    I had Willy for the best part of twelve years. He was the best horse. He now sits proudly on my bookcase next to the dog and cat.

  6. Aussie dog can one person put it up by themselves? And how heavy is it ?

    I always had someone with me to help put it up (my mum) so i'm not sure if one person alone could do it. Possibly. It's reasonably lightweight - you would need a trailer and/or a car that allows the back seat to go down to fit the frame in. Whilst it folds up it JUST fitted in my Outlander.

    I have a bung back and my mum is pushing 60 and we were both able to carry the frame quite easily.

    Back to the one person question - the frame can be done by one person and I guess if you put the roof over the frame before you erected it - it could work.

    I have the black 3m x 3m. So much cheaper than on eBay. Great price COTD!

  7. People think I'm overreacting when I put our dogs away when other kids come to play, but its just not worth the risk.

    I do to. Actually because one of my dog's is naughty and jumps up on people I put them outside whenever we have visitors that isn't family.

  8. One of my dogs was sick after eating the canned food so I haven't tried it again since. It looked good but there must have been something unusual in it so I won't be getting it again.

    Interesting you say this as I was just googling if anyone elses dog was sick after eating the can food.

    I feed the chicken version in the can to her and she was sick. Thought it could have been her irritable bowel but tonight I fed it to my boy (who has an iron gut) and he has thrown dinner up twice. It was the chicken version again.

    Strange.

  9. Noticed the kittens and puppies in FG about three months ago. Queried what happened to the rescue pets and the shop assistant told me they had to start selling puppies and kittens as they found people weren't buying accessories with the rescue pets, ie not making enough money.

  10. If the council is using baits I thought they had to put warning signs up near the areas?

    I was looking at our local council the other day and found all the areas currently baited on a map on their website. In the information it also said warning signs where/would be placed around the sites.
