It's just heartbreaking

Not sure if this has already been posted (apologies if it has) but there's a video on Ninemsn: http://news.ninemsn.com.au/national/105134...e-in-house-fire

All sorted

Just tragic :thumbsup: Sending positive vibes and hoping for good news......

I agree, that's exactly how I have gone about it myself. I started out with a dog just over a year ago, I waited 8 months for him as I was wanting something from a particular line. And it has been non-stop learning ever since. Learning about showing, how to handle, how to groom, learning about my breed, developing relationships with other exhibitors and breeders within my breed. I now have 2 great mentors and am waiting for a litter to be born later this year in which will hopefully be my foundation bitch.

Sooooo cute

Bump

Cool... it is a great setup.

My breed doesn't have a National, so it makes no difference to me...

Or any recommendations of transport companies?

Can't wait Poor Fletcher... hope he's feeling better soon!!

I am looking at possibly purchasing a dog trailer which is located in Cairns, and am faced with the logistical problem of getting it to Brisbane So I thought I'd put some feelers out and see if anyone is (or knows of someone who is) travelling from Cairns to Brisbane and could possibly tow a trailer with them in exchange for fuel money? Or even someone who is travelling part of the way eg Cairns to Rocky etc?? I have also emailed a couple of transport companies so will see what they come back with...

Love it How did you make/install the false floor? Have been thinking about doing something similar in my VZ.

Got your PM, thanks I will give that a try. Problem with him is that he's not really interested in me, or bait... sniffing the ground is far more interesting He's not an 'eager to please' type of dog, he's pretty naughty independant.

My 15-month-old JS boy likes to go around the ring with his nose buried in the grass. He has been doing it since he was a few months old and it is so hard to stop him. I have tried every single type of collar/lead imaginable, I've tried talking to him in the ring, tried getting his attention with bait. Nothing seems to work. At the moment, I am showing him on a plain paracord lead (an all-in-one 'choker' style). I have to position it right up behind his ears so I can 'pop' on the lead when he puts his head down... if he is really naughty then I end up having to string him up and it looks awful. I have had several judges tell me that he is a lovely dog but his behaviour is letting him down as it throws his movement out. Any tips/suggestions?

Ohh!!

I've got a small-medium breed and my current car is perfect: There is loads of room in the back and the lockable canopy is perfect for keeping all my show stuff secure. I can carry enough stuff in there for a whole weekend away - two show trolleys, a deluxe oztrail gazebo, a compact oztrail gazebo, my tent inner kit, a couple of camping chairs, two PP40 crates, a gazebo floor, my grooming bag, a queen size camping bed, plus my own bags (clothes etc). The only negative is that the canopy does not have any ventilation, so it's not really suitable for transporting the dogs in the back during the heat of the day (they ride up front in the air con ). Overall though I absolutely love it

RIP Stormboy - he was obviously very special to you.

Hey Kissindra I just realised I met you at Maree KC on Monday and didn't even realise it was you I was the one who asked you how your first show had gone Atticus is lovely!

Fabulous achievement for one so young!!

Yep! Asian Breeds Club 2009 was his first ever show at exactly 3 months of age This is a pic of him on the day :D Awww soooo cute ! Congratulations !!!! :D Thanks!! 12 months later and nothing much has changed, he still rarely has all 4 feet on the ground LOL!

Great idea :D

Thanks everyone :D I wasn't actually there, sorry! My boy was handled by his breeders daughter while I was stuck working all day! Thanks guys, and big congrats on Rumba going Junior in Show at the Champ show

Yep I've never heard of that rule either...

Can't say I've ever thought of a Labradoodle as being 'manly'
