  1. Thanks scottsmumand ddd Looks like it's the same number

  3. Hi all Have been clearing out the garage and decided to cull the many dog coats and blankets to make room for new ones I have in the past done a run to Blacktown holding facility with old towels but was wondering if anyone knows of any centre in dire need I know its summer but there might be a place for some of my old but still useable stuff! I have both big that would suit a greyhound as well as little ones Thanks Happy new year and keep our doggies safe :)
  4. oh yes! especially if we are on holidays overseas...i get so nanasick for the animals...by the end of the trip im salivating of course it depends on the situation...i wont cross a road or risk life and limb or interrupt someone..and i also stop short of chasing after joggers :) but i do try to strike up a conversation with someone who has a cute or unusual dog...puppymelt moments...that kind of thing i missed the animals once so much in norway that i bought a carved wooden bunny and had it up on the dashboard of the rental in nz recently i found myself stroking the stuffed kiwi i bought for the kids
  5. hes bluffing who is he? donald trump? just to see a lawyer is anywhere between 300 and 450 and hour thered be an initial phone call and the lawyer would say that there was no case...unless he embellishes dont worry about it...ring the ranger or the police if youre frightened and avoid him
  6. what a shock to read this post..im so very sorry... but thank you so much for posting..i have never ever envisaged anything like this...so it really does serve as a warning so sad that your day turned such an awful corner i would definitely pursue this ...this must be a warning to the whole industry..surely the reputable groomers would never risk this...lord it doesnt bear thinking what horrors could well be lurking at shonky 'groomers'
  7. if its a proper kids playground you cant be anywhere near there anyway...i think it might be ten metres if it isnt and kids play there then i guess its ok but you might get someone cranked up at our school there are parents who bring dogs on leashese to the play equipment ..noone says anything..but it still makes me feel uncomfortable..if the rules are there for everyone then noone should break them its hard for dogs in oz...so many rules but we will never change anything if we dont follow the law
  8. thank you for posting i have just annoyed the entire fam...who is watching stupid captain america lol..my exclamations and squeals disturbed their viewing pleasure :laugh: have to go back and look some more pricey but nice!
  9. we dont go... i think thxeyre mostly a melting pot..of potential trouble its ok if they have plenty of room but it only takes one over-excited in your face dog to start trouble too many people with very little knowledge of how to read their dog and others saw a little dog die in a park a few years ago and have seen fights...ears torn...dogs knocked for a six people hurt too...knocked over by big boisterous dogs hitting them in the back of their knees nup...not for us we used to sit and watch from the outside ...nice to see some dogs having a ball but too risky for our dogs we prefer to go on long walks...off leash stuff is reserved for long or deserted beaches unfortunately
  10. I would crate train her or keep her tethered with hooks screwed into a few convenient places round the house...she is not to wander every repetition of an accident is teaching her its ok to toilet inside you have to break the cycle use biozet laundry powder dissolved in water to clean the area use cold water first then warm for poo ( and vomit)...cold to dissolve the protein and warm to dissolve the fat ...dont use warm first cos it will set the protein biozet gets rid of all the urine particles too dogs cant remember much after the incident so unless caught in the act its pretty useless to scold even and theres no guilt anyway...defaecating is all good and natural to them the crating may take time..maybe up to a week but id put up with the howling and be determined is a good idea to get up to toilet dogs can hold on to wee better than poo...so when they have to go...they have to go~
  11. we have had dogs and introduced kittens and vice versa...cat then pup it's about the breeding and the nature of the cats we have had really chilled out cats ...the latest two are ragdolls and they were brought in to a pack of indoor dogs...a=two spaniels and a shihtzu later as we lost the older dogs...we had a new dog who accepted the cats well..unless they ran ,,,then hed chase but when we moved to the new house...i had the cats put into a cattery/ cat run on the side of the house and whenever we brought the cats inside, this dog would chase them as if not recognising them or maybe he became territorial cos they were no longer part of the household scene on a daily basis he still wags his tail at them through the cat run fence and i have had them in the enclosed breezeway with him but i know now that attitudes can change even if theyre brought up as pups with cats... good luck..it is gorgeous when theyre all together living in peace and thats how it has been with us for the most
  12. really nice..thanks for sharing!
  13. i choose dogs by their coat and personality i rule our terriers cos i dont like rough coats i dont like overly smelly dogs...although i know all dogs do have some odour i just dont want an overly smelly coat so avoid the shorthairs size will matter as we age and then i guess there will be grandkids one day so has to be a pretty relaxed breed
  14. oh dear Lord that is beyond horrific...i am so so sorry thank you for letting us know...when i saw the thread i was interested cos we use kennels in that area RIP lil Jack gutless of the owners not to be forthcoming
  15. ahhh hard for them... as it will be for many of us as our dear dogs come to their end all the best to your friends through this tough time
