  1. Hi all I have decided to clip my own maltese..... With many weeks of researching i have come up with 2 model clippers that i am interested in. They both seem to be very similiar in price and functions.. but i just don't know which one will make the cut.. so.. to everyone with experience in clippers and clipping your own dog of course.. please help me The Andis Pro Pet (single speed) MGB2? OR The Wahl KMS single speed?
  2. I know this is a little off topic.. but i want to look for a really good groomer for my pure malt. Mainly for the paws, clipping of nails, glands and ears. I live in Strathfield area.. can anyone recommend me a good groomer?
  3. hello.. it has been a while since my last visit. I am trying to find a reliable dog groommer for my little maltese. She really needs a good fur trim but i just don't know where i can get one that is realiable and safe for her inner west would be close to me any suggestions?
  4. her teeth is slightly wobbly but not as loose as the front teeth's when she was teething them. I will watch her for a week and then decide what to do.. she is nipping and biting which is really killing me :rolleyes:
  5. i have a 5 month maltese puppy and she is teething she started teething around 4.5 months.. with her top and bottom front teeth going first.. now the top and bottom fronts are all the new ones. The sides are now just starting to wobble. (not sure the proper names of these) st The bottom sides (really pointy ones on each side) are just starting to wobble but i can see the real ones starting to come out behind it. Since the baby ones are not falling out.. will it cause any issues with the real ones? How do i get the baby teeth to wobble more and fall out? so they will not be in the way for the real ones to come out? I am already feeding her chicken necks and frames along with her daily diet of dry dog food.
  6. i use newspaper as i don't have grass at my courtyard.. otherwise i would definitely have my dog outside to do her business. (less cleaning up ) i use newspaper and ensure i have at least 4 layers so it will not seep onto my tiles.. once baci does her business i get another sheet of newspaper and lay it on top so it seeps onto the top layer and bottom layer.. then i will clean it up after it has all seeped so it will not run everywhere... the down side to newspaper is: having to clean her mess frequently she does step on it every now and then.. so you have to wipe her paws.. and maybe the tiles where she has trotted I have tried puppy pads when baci was young.. but she just doesn't go on it.. and went on the tile instead.. so i reverted back to newspaper.. sorry i cannot be much help with the training pads
  7. i have a maltese puppy.. nearly 5months old and currently teething.. I have been searching around trying to find out when puppies fully form their adult size body? any help would be great.. so i can start looking for winter coat for her cheers
  8. she has finally finished it.. she was pretty good.. no gulping down and took much longer to chew than chicken necks.. she is teething right now so i really need a good bone she can chew on thanks heaps :rolleyes:
  9. I would not cut them up, when you cut bones up it can make them more dangerous than if they are whole as it makes them smaller and not natural. It depends on what kind of eater your dog is. Most dogs know what they can swallow, some are a bit grandiose in their plans! Chicken frames are quite soft, baby puppies can eat them, so I would be surprised if your maltese can't get through it very easily My collie pup was on frames and wings at 8 weeks with no problem, and they have teeny tiny mouths :rolleyes: she is eating the frame now.. i have cut it up because a whole frame is about the size of her entire body.. she has the size around about her head. She is licking it and trying to get into it. Which is good. unlike the chicken necks.. they go down pretty quick i am supervising her.. just incase thanks heaps.. will keep you updated
  10. tess.. i want to move to chicken frames as they will give my maltese more chewing time. I am cutting them up into quarter pieces. But the rib part (middle section) is really tough. Is that safe for her? I am really worried if she chokes. :rolleyes:
  11. i feed my maltese chicken necks frozen and she chews on them to soften then gulps it down pretty quick. She doesn't chew them for a long time. Unlike when she was 10weeks old. She took ages to finish one. She is now around 5months old and teething.. so i am feeding her chicken necks to soothe her but she eats them so quick.. what other bone can i use? how about chicken frames?.... are they ok?
  12. is it a female or male? how about bass treble
  13. i would give it a go.. but do supervise so they do not get lazy and try to swallow it whole. puppies do get lazy if they try to chew it and get frustrated then try to swallow it whole which can be dangerous and choke her if he cannot chew it or is taking ages.. then cut it up into pieces. this will then not cause any choking problems good luck!!
  14. yes i saw these while trying to find more info on clippers and they look really easy to use and pretty good quality for domestic use has anyone used it before.. please give me some feedback.. the website has a u-tube link and it looks so easy
  15. something around $100. is that too cheap to get a decent quality?
