I have seen them at shows but i prefer the wire coat

The most important advice i can give is she start crate training the dogs now . The sooner they adaptto the crate the better there travel will be . My dogs are frequent flyers & have been since pups but they are crate trained & happily will sit there for hours without any concern

Considering is weight i dare say it would never hit the ring,it must be a very over sized dog or very very fat . US height is 32 inches or more

Grazers are your worst nightmare & so much hassle especially when sick & when older plus there often self created . Personally i wouldn't want to be encouraging birds to hang around for food especially considering some of the diseases there poo can transmit. Chances are if the dog is a grazer it has taken a back step to the birds & is going hungry anyway because its food is being eaten so infact the dog is missing out. You could try other options but birds often don't give up on easy food sources

What size are you after ?? Most people who contact us say Schnauzer when infact they want the mini not the Standard . All you can do is email the breeders or look at the mature dog pages. Also be prpepared to wait as mature dogs are placed in like minded homes for the best fit

I would say that is expensive & many are charging for those collars which we have never used . One of our puppy buyers used Ranford last month & for a 7 kg dog where charged price plus a very over sized collar . We did havea bitch spayed last month & her bill was near $500 (8kg) but she had complications(first stage pyo) & an over night stay . George out at Midland is apparently great with pricing

Our solid blue greyhound had thyroid issues .

NSW also have training nights if your within travelling distance otherwise email the committeee & ask if they can suggest someone who can help explain or demonstrate the rules. Videoing the senior class is also very helpful for kids to watch

We have boarded both breeds & i would go Bullmastiff all the way . Personality,loyal,friendly ,laid back & go with the flow . Dogues we have never had an issue but i just prefer the character of the BM

First of there not a terrier . They do not shed but must be clipped every 6/8 weeks or if shown hand stripped when the coat is blown. Brushing a few times a week more so if ther is lots of crap on the ground as there legs & beard will collect all sorts of garden They are highly intelligent & do very well at obedience/agility They normally aren't a one person dog BUT the pitfalls of away workers & the others in the house being the primary care gicvers may mean the dog doesn't click like he thinks. Being a companion breed they thrive on human company .

I am currently showing a dog in another group & have to say that breed takes the cake for displaying every aspect of bad sports or poor ring form . Some prefer to play the game more . I have no trouble speaking up if there affecting my dog.my dogs are fine with what ever is thrown at them BUT i will not tolerate people who have no care for another dog no matter who owns it. First rule is don't get sucked into the game ,judges & outsiders are good at seeing the bad display in the ring & i am finding judges are speaking up more & more now. Personally i think the stewards especially if there is only one aren't there to be the ring moderator ,there job is hard enough without having to be the umpire & as someone who has stewarded you can get varying versions of ligit complaints to those who are also serial whingers trying to create mischief themselves & making out there the one who is being affected when they aren't. Video cameras can also be a wonderful tool . As for the shadowers they peeve me off the most . Although the laughable part is these idiots seem to have n clue how it affects there dogs in the ring For people that seemingly want to win at all costs showing there dogs like a normal person brings out the best

We have never ever followed the vets no exercise,if the dg is sane onlead then take him for walks,he will not damage his stitches walking . What is the dogs daily activity level ,what do you do to make life fun for him?? Some dogs will chew things to simply get the attention it may be lacking & being told of doesn't off phase them as it is attention. I just read this on another of your posts He also takes great delight in "stealing" things - he'll snatch a item and run off with it and if left unchecked, tear it to pieces. Many many many times a day. He enjoys being chased and considers it a great game, but if I don't recover the item it's as good as gone. Chewing gets rewarded with a fun game ,sounds like time has come for some new rules & respect . Has pup been to obedience school ??

When you say generally fit & healthy is there something that she suffers from. Some skinny Boxers when feed up end up with the runs so feeding up needs to be monitored . What exactly have you feed & quantity wise ?? We board a number of skinny boxers a number have done great on Royal Canin Boxer often its a malabsorption issue so things like thrive D can be helpful. I do feed ice cream to any of mine that get skinny but they can stomach it . I did have an entire bitch that after 2 years we decided to spay due to weight issues & once spayed she put on weight easy . Also some young Boxers just take time to settle . How many times a day do you feed her ?? Bowen massage can encourage appetite aswell

Set times means expectations,pups learn very quickly what set times are & providing you are happy to do the demand thing that is fine but we teach our pups that food comes when it does ,this doesn't mean they don't get feed but we don't feed as soon as we get up the priority there for us is traing pups to go outside to toilet ,have a play & when we are ready or its suitable pup gets feed. Our dogs learn to sleep in aswell.we don't set the alarm for clock work night toilets.If pup cries we get up,if no noise we don't disturb they also learn quickly that at midnight last night & the night before they got attention. We breed & show so all the dogs are taught from day 1 that good things come to those that wait & that we also set them up for the routine we expect latter on

Nope no set times here ,they learn that food doesn't come on demend. If we get pups from the east we will wean them in to our routine simply because of the time difference & them being hungry at different times but they soon learn

Never put a collar on .

Mine are frequent flyers but the main advice i would give ensure your crate is well labelled for contacts not just yours . I laminate a sign with my name frequent flyer # (easy check for info Flight number coming/going contact number ( i normally put someone at both ends if possible or someone who will be able to deal with an issue if dog is loaded etc etc I always watch the dogs being loaded on the plane so i check luggage then go to gate asap ,if i don't see the dogs loaded i have asked the staff when free & they have on the 1 occasion checked no drama;s If flying Virgin well you can't pre book seat or ticket until dog is lodged which is a pain . The airlines do have sparky ties to tie crate door but i carry my own . I have never had an issue with my guys needing to wear ID collars but have had tags made if i feel the need to use one east with contact more suited to being out of state

Most people can't follow offleash etiquette & believe there friendly dog can do as it pleases so you aren't going to stop the other factor either. Plenty on DOL have posted about things they break the law about or believe it doesn't apply to them & they get educated but don't care. Then you have the band wagon brigade who support any new trend when they don't have a clue

Haven't had a dog with this issue but we board many epileptic dogs & those on high doses are like zombies . Was this her first time for seizures because that many in one day is an awful lot if she had no history prior too
