Doghouse

A firm believer in Confortis. Miss PC was down to blood and skin before we started her.. 6 months later.. clear skin and full coat and not a flea within 25 sqm.. not even the neighbors dogs !! Two doses and no residual fleas for in house MEDIUM sized dogs. WE SWEAR BY IT. When a vet is scratching his head at what to do with an OCD dog with flea and mite itch dermatitis.. CONFORTIS..

Thank you.. shall do.. She is fine this morning.. just looks like some mangy moth eaten junk yard dog.

Was walking a pot of hot leg wax out the front yard (dogs were with Miss 6 in backyard..) when Miss 6 opened door let dogs in and Lola bundled into me and I spilled leg wax on one dogs withers.. No scalding of skin but wax is still stuck in coat (thank god for a double coat) right down to skin. Have bathed her, cut back excess hair. How does one get the remainder of the wax out of the coat or should I just try and cut the hair back to the lilly white skin underneath and leave her with bald patches. I have some neocort..wondering if this would help if there is any sensitivity for the scalding. Vet does not open til Monday. She is fine.. just waxy..

If it smells clean, looks new or expensive or cant be replaced easily the love it dont ask me why they generally do.. I have lost count of the shredded matts, blankets, doonas, pillow slips, doona covers, towels, pillows and lounges etc etc and with two bitches if it belongs to one after the struggle.. then the other pees on it for ownership.. it does pass.. eventually

Yep..Staffies and alot of the bullbreeds MUST BE WITH THEIR PACKS.. My two sang better arias than Maria Callas.. I caved and have had nights of peaceful contentment since..

No PC is the brindle pig dog reject on the chain (the only time I could get that close to get a snap was to restrain her otherwise it is tail whip and lick kiss central) The one looking contrite is Lola.. she always looks like she is the good girl until she eggs or starts PC (Problem child) off and on to do something norty... No mum I had nothing to do with that destruction/chaos ;) Its all PC.. shes the bad one..

We now have purple poo... I was wondering what the hell it was until I worked it out..

PC has just raided the 5YO's stash of bubblegum (2 packs) ..given to her by her doting grandfather the other day (despite it being a no no) and she left it on her bedside table which was then snorted up by her beloved and always hungry PC... It shouldent be a problem should it? Bloody dog... eats anything..

Same as everybody else.. my girls are the closest of dogs.. except when it comes to food or bones.. separate or there will be the need for a urgent and very expensive day at the vet.. My girls had a major spat (over dominance issues) at 10 months and cost me a small fortune for week or two.. Is your dog desexed yet???

Just saw this.. Labs do like to eat, but within the mass growth period I would be feeding more than the 'pet shop' recommendations.. ask your vet.. My girls at 4 months were having 1 lamb shank per second day, lamb brisket or flaps to chew in addition to their three times daily meals.. and then there was puppy milk and our vegetable off casts as well as fresh mince with egg, and our excess meat requirements.. Mine arnt labs, they are working dogs of varying degrees :D and I have never had an issue with being hungry or the vet concerned about being over or under nourished.. Once your dog is through the mass growth period and after desexing I would cut back the food to the twice daily feeds..

I know its a long way away - but Moree show has it every year..it is in July I wanted to enter the dogs in it next year.. The Kelpies tend to excell at it, but so do some of the big pig dogs...

Same here, I found doing it like this when they were little got them used to be poked and prodded somewhat.. We use Advantage Plus.. but not until they were bigger.. up to the age of 16 weeks they were on hand fleaing

if you dont want ants getting into food bowls then place them in a shallow dish of water...
