    Digging!

    maybe try blowing a balloon up (small) and adding some water to it place it in the hols and cover with a small amount of dirt (so cant be seen) and when she digs next time it will bust as shes digging and deter her from digging (we did this with our boxer who was digging along the fence line and it did stop her... now only rips bits of grass out...hmmm how do i solve that one???
  15. we feed our dogs (miniature pinscher, german pinscher & boxers) chicken frames, necks, thighs, and wings. i have also fed turkey necks (can get them at woolies) as they are higher in fat and alot larger (looks gross the dogs dragging them round the yard) we also feed them lamb flaps, shanks. have NEVER had a dog choke on any of the above mentioned bones. our pups are started from about 6 weeks of age, i generally hold the neck for younger pups who havent had them before, and they manage quite fine.
  16. chickens in australia do not have hormones in them # Are chickens fed hormones in Australia? Australian chickens are not fed hormones. Nor are they administered hormones in any other way. Their rapid growth occurs naturally due to selective breeding and optimal nutrition. Independent tests by the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry, as part of the National Residue Survey, confirm that Australian chicken meat is free of added hormones. # Why do many people wrongly believe that chickens are fed hormones? We believe that one reason might be that people note that the chickens sold these days in supermarkets, butcher shops and chicken shops are much bigger than what they may recall them to have been 20 or 30 years ago. They may wrongly conclude that this must be the result of some unnatural intervention. The actual reason for this increased growth rate and size is the ongoing extensive selective breeding programs that have been adopted by the industry over the past 50 years, which aim for not only faster growing birds but also for healthier and more disease resistant chickens. the above statements are from the site below:~ http://www.chicken.org.au/page.php?id=150
  17. what about a miniature pinscher? short coated smart little dogs and just the best. easily trained and affectionate little mites. they come in blk/tan, red, stag red (red with fleks of blk hair through), chocolate/tan, blue/tan (not prominently bred here though) also isabella (blonde but not here in oz) great little watch dogs also.
