I would suggest getting a spot on a flight for the dog will be the bigger challenge,Covid has severely affected pet transportation. My dogs fly a lot and picking flights is a priority but this year has changed all the normal

No problems I do cool air fluff outs regularly on the coated dogs after spraying

Contact the Newfoundland club in your state or the main club they will most likely have all the details you need

Actually one off the biggest issues is some people do way too much off everything without paying attention to the stress signs the dog is displaying .A trainer is only as good as the trainer & too many cant read a dog . It sounds like you had the expectations that if i did YTV then all would be good but it sounds like the dog has been pushed way out off its comfort zone & walking out the front door is overwhelming & it has no idea how to behave,react or process the outside world . Keep in mind your frustration is nothing compared to how the dog feels . Sounds like you need a behavioural trainer who is actually good to get you back on track . Whilst young maybe consider a thyroid test

So she can do all that on the associate register but I’m gathering as you don’t want her spayed there lies your issue . So in the end it comes down to having the info to meet a recognised ANKC option ,breeding her then spaying her to compete in ANKC . UKC i gather your meaning the America which won’t give you a back door option to ANKC as UKC papers aren’t part of the reconized body anyway .

What sports are you wanting to compete in that she is currently ineligible for

Where not vets & we cant see the exact issue ,if your worried go to the vet

What advice has the breeder given ? Sorry to ask is the pup full Great Dane or a slight mix?? I would be inclined to take the collar off due to the lack of hair underneath or certainly be mindful off that area in watching for irritation . I would want a skin scraping done to rule out mites . Also a raw diet is only as good is it being right portions .

The first breed listed is already here with a litter on the ground . Bolognese is also already here being shown

I would doubt anyone has brought them into Australia as there an American breed. Great little dogs ,have seen them in the rings in the US Whilst they have health issue that study was 10 years ago based on stock pre then. DNA testing for EIC which affects other breeds in Australia is know available . Maybe consider the Nova Scotia Duck Toller or Field Spaniel ,if going working Cocker then like any breed pick a breeder who health tests & breeds for sound mined

I would consider starting at $1500 plus each dog could be more . Too much to factor add vet costs,permits etc etc one place may charge more another not . Obviously will depend on when flights are opened up to Perth from NZ otherwise the quote will be different again with internal . You need to contact an agency to see how things stand at present & what the current backlog time is depending on when you are looking at coming back . A friend brought 2 dogs over a a few weeks back but the wait period & flight guarantees difficult & ended doing NZ to Qld ,Qld to WA . Simple answer not cheap

His discomfort may be a result off the pain meds its on

It’s an American site legit or not who knows but if legit pup can’t leave the US till 9 months and will cost $$$$ in transport and quarantine. Simply contact a breeder in Australia and put your name down then no dramas about a scam as you have done the work to talk to people . Contact the Rotti club in your state but I’m presuming your interest in that site was based on the prices listed

I guess what you need to look at is if you decide to pursue the breeder for costs you may not get what you fully want . In this case if we sold a pup & something went wrong after purchase & the person contacted us we would get a second opinion .Why because too many vets do get it wrong & it can be an expensive wrong . We make it very clear in our puppy folder if anything weird crops up let us know. We have been there last year with a pup we sold & what a massive screw the puppy owners did . We received a very nasty email based on the vet telling them we breed an issue & they should pursue bigtime . Give the owners one moment of credit they did decide to email us before they did what there vet wanted . Got a second opinion & that vet was horrified at the complete incompetence & the attitude. The puppy owners forwarded all the tests,x rays to the vet picked ,that vet discussed the findings with there vet & just shock there head . Dog actually had no issue ,had a treatable issue the second opinion vet found & that was found to be due to something the owners mismanaged themselves . Short story pet owners paid big bucks for testing & extra testing based on there vet ,they no longer talk to us due to the aggressive method they picked informing us (most likely very embarrassed ) . There vet as a side note charge $1500 to spay a 6 kg dog which is OMG . So i think you need to do some serious deciding on the path you want to follow . Keep in mind if you ask for refund then generally you return the goods . Many breeders will refund the price & work with the no further costs if you want to keep the pup ,you truly need to start talking with the breeder . As you have found from replies on the post your vet is saying go big ,where those with experience work with go simple whilst still growing . In the end only you can decide

Dogs will e press there glands if fearful,frightened or nervous ..

Your breeder may feed something crappy BUT when the pup comes home it’s what it’s use to so you just slowly change ,your breeder may feed an awesome diet . Questions are great but how long is a piece of string is the diet answers . I have a breed that has a higher than normal cholesterol level ,highly predisposed to pancreatitis,the diet we recommend can be tweaked and changed BUT it’s based on not creating an issue .

Puppy contracts are very common in Australia don’t know who told you they weren’t . Personally I wouldn’t have taken the puppy without discussing the issue ,yes you where told in poor form BUT you had the chance to say hang on a minute we need to think on this & certainly discuss it

Agree go back to simple basics . Puppy pen and building her confidence about toileting .Make her space smaller and less overwhelming and build upwards. If you feel she’s doing it deliberately then your body language will come across as annoyed and frustrated . Your pup will be even more frustrated so go back to simple bed. Some cavies can be shy and that is where building her confidence is a must .

Your breeder will be your person off knowledge and will tell you what it’s been feed,how many meals,current quantities after all there feeding the pup in question . Keep in mind you will get many confusing answers to you post . Some breeds diets can be more breed specific. If wanting to feed raw make sure you feed a correct balanced raw . Also keep in mind any diet transitions should be done slowly in case your puppy ends up with the runs . Do you know what the breeder feeds .? Talk to them after all if you feed something else when pup arrives home and it gets the runs or sick the first person you will call is the breeder so . Our diet is part of our puppy guarantee which is in the contract and we also have a section about requiring a change and informing us . We went with this path after puppy owners going on there own and getting it wrong . Most vets will sell what they stock and most vets aren’t savvy with breed diets relating to growth ,high cholesterol etc . Ask your breeder about diet now and go from there

I still am weary off a vet that goes full OMG than saying not ideal but the jaw has lots of growing to do & hits you with the hefty,gonna cost you line.Did your vet discuss a referral to specialist dentist?? You wouldn't even consider any surgery until the jaw has grown i have seen bad bites go perfect in puppies & great bites go bad Your issue is you still brought the pup fully ware it had an issue as you where told ,i would have wanted it noted on the sales contract . What does the sales contract of the puppy state as for as a vet check at your expense within a set period.Did the puppy go with the free 6 week puppy insurance ?? What you want to also decide is it a parrot bite ,where are the incisors currently sitting inverted ??

First off find a new vet ,any vet that makes those claims at this age is a worry and not a vet I would trust with my dog . Many puppies can have overbites and with the growing process rectify itself. Often surgery is not required ,talk about a dramatic vet. Would i be pissed with the breeder yes . im a breeder and anything like that would be discussed ,having said that bites change so quickly ( did the breeder say they new well in advance) We sold a pup last year perfect bite ,6 months it’s bite went ,total shock too us .We refunded the pup price . Has the issue been listed in the sales contract ..?

Has the dog been tested for thyroid issues

You didnt post in the breeder section you have posted in the general section where pet owners often ask for free advice or general pet questions and are simply pet owners who have never experienced litters . The Breeders section is where those with the potential knowledge are . At the end off the day known of us are vets ,able to see the pups infront of us ,the colour of the poo or the pups themselves . Only a vet could help you

No papers and chances are not health tested for important Border Collie issues . The issue you have is you have to take the pedigree part on face value ,the pup may 100% be but without the papers there is no proof . Registered father could mean any registery to registered with the council but if the owner doesn't actually have the papers in there possession there have no real clue either . Depending on why you need the papers & that can be for very legit reasons you in this case wont be able to get any form off proof as to your pups actual parentage or history . Hopefully you discussed all this with the person with the puppies prior to committing & the breeder should have fully explained the pups have no paper trail as such that your simply buying the pup on face value & honesty

Puppies have been in thousand bracket for many many years . This didn’t happen this year .
