He is a little stunner, soooo cute! looks like he has grown heaps. Bet your having heaps of fun with him?!!

I have used it occasionally, if we go away its easy if I am wanting to add a bit to thier dry food. also for training treats it is good because you can cut them in half and they stay pretty well contained and don't go too mushy.

Well done guys, nothing like a good old lamb chunk to mark the occasion!!

So sorry to hear about your dad Linda, hugs from us!

What is a dominant dog collar??

So true, I wish I had my dogs life, They eat better than me. ;) They have better clothes than me. They have a better social life than me. lots of doggy buddies! They get better hair cuts than me. They don't have to work as hard as me!! They get waited on hand and food.... I could go on all day..... I love my doggies ;)

Congrats and well done!!

Another early morning for me this morning, they were only slightly more enthused than the last time See Lacy the buggest sleepy head up first and telling the other two to hurry up!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1aQQl0hHM7U I love that most of the DOL doggies get to sleep inside!!

Just popped in to see how Chase was doing, Wow what an emotional rollercoaster you have been on. Hope he continues to improve now they know what they are dealing with!

The pic thing is my fault somthing to do with my photo bucket should be fixed by saturday I hope! yea it was a race horse and according to the council they should not be at AP at all they have thier own area, but it is not like the Wcc is there enforcing any rules. Awwww he looks so good, how is the visits going, bet you are both loving it! The girls had thier path tests today and we are a little closer to getting our facility up and running just waiting to hear from the hospital co ordinator. So it should be any time soon we hope!

So glad there is others that just love the morning cuddles, I would ha ve to say it is probly one of my favorite time of the day! Keep the stories coming!

Sending healing vibes for the little dude from us and hugs to you KM. Hope he pulls through.

more great morning stories! LOL TLC - Yeah I know that "nose to nose" thing - it's a split second of shock and then sooooo nice. I'm the same. Mad as my morning wake-ups are, since Dylan arrived especially, I wouldn't change it for the world. I might need to teach Dylan not to be quite so rough on my tummy but that'll happen ;) Bronson used to be like Dylan I had to persevere with him and every morning when he was mucking up and the rest of us were trying to sleep, he got put back in his crate which he wasn't impressed about so he soon learnt he had to get on the bed and go to sleep or back in he went. Didn't take him long to figure it out! Im sure they do that at times!! Mine always seem to wake earlier on a Sunday as it is OH s only sleep in, its such a novely to have him in the bed they all try to get on him and I am positive they know it is obedience day as Lacy gets twitchy if she doesn't get to go, CJ gets sooky if he doesn't get to go, Tully when it is her turn resists and doesnt want to go ;) and Bronson just wants to be where I am I think they know it is Sunday because OH is home!

A similar thing happened to me when my pup was about 6 months old, I left him in my bedroom thinking he was out of harms way for about 10 minutes and when I came to get him out he was chewing on a panadol packet. I was 99% sure he got the packet out of the little bin I keep in my ensuite as I certainly don't leave pills lying around but there was that tiny bit of doubt so I rang the vet and she agreed the best thing to do was to bring him in and give him the stuff to make him sick. So off we went, he had just had tea before this happened and up came the lot and no sign of any pills thank god. The vet did say they especially with things like panadol they don't have any effects till down the track when internal organs can be affected. I think I knew the packet was empty but I just couldn't risk it. It was after hours so $100 odd later but hey they are worth it!

When my oldest dog (now 4) was a pup I was loking after children at home (family day care) and I had a system I used, the kids 3 and 4 year olds had to turn thier back on Cooper and put thier arms up to thier chest so he couldn't grab thier hands. My system was if they could do this and get Cooper to stop jumping up at them, each time he sat quiet after jumping because they had turned thier back and put thier arms up, the dog got a treat and the kids got a smartie. It really didn't take long at all (maybe a 4 days to a week) for Cooper to learn it was more benificial not to jump as the kids didn't play when he did. Not sure how you would go with your young child but your 4 year old should understand. What breed of puppy are we talking about? Cooper wasn't huge but not quite big enough to knock a 3 year old over but it was a real pain to have him jumping on the kids. You really need to get the whole family on the same page with the method you use, and In my opinion ignoring is the best method. Also if you can pre empt the jumping and get the pup to sit and reward he will soon learn that jumping gets him no where.

great stories, I love that they are all soooo different in their routines! Some mornings when my OH lets Bron out of his crate, I know he is sitting at the Side of the bed waiting for me to pat the bed for his ok to get up, the he goes right back to sleep. Some mornings if I have had a late night and am having a big sleep in and they wake before me, I can feel them willing me to wake up but they just wait till I'm ready which is great. On the odd occasion I wake up to a head on my pillow and I'm nose to nose with one of them. I hope I can wake up like this for the rest of my life!!

Well I will definaltey look forward to some pics, Now make sure you take some before and after the B & W cans! I so wanna come down there to visit you guys, It would be so great but can't stand the thought of taking the dogs on the boat and can't stand the thought of going without them! Someone suggested we fly, I think it would be rather exxy with 2 adults and 4 dogs?? So I will have to be happy with some piccys! Shell I need a bubba fix so hoping you can email me some new pics soon. Hows Miss L doing??

Hi Guys, just curious as to how your dogs get out of bed in the morning? Are they big on sleeping in or are they eager to get out and about? I only work part time so on the days I don't go to work till the arvo me and the dogs love to sleep in, on the days I go to work early, 7 on Friday and 8 on Saturday they are not impressed. I made a little video of the younger 3, On this particular morning OH got up, let Bronson out of his crate (he gets up with me for a cuddle) and Cooper went to the kitchen with him. I then got up made the bed around them and had my shower and they were still asleep. This little video shows what sleepy heads they are http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zp4dIQTPc1U So how do your doggies wake up in the morning, are they early birds or sleepy heads??

Yes I found that out too! Thought Id delete soem pics to make room not realizing if I had psoted them to a forum (which I did) they wouldn't be there any more. Strange thing is I think there has been months when I have posted a lot more pics than I have this month and it has never happened before. I also resize my pics before I upload them to PB. ANyway no matter I will eb right again on 23rd. Hope my siggy comes back then and all the pics I have posted.

I assume your taking the video camera and have it at the ready this time!! Geez Shell you better be prepared... Very celver Ellz!! Can't wait for the next installment. And anyway how about some piccys of you guys all together at these events. Is there any??

Just found this, Still think it is strange as I didn't think I had posted all that many pics this month, im sure there has been others that I have posted more. and why would it let me post to flickr but not here? Anyway I will wait till my date clicks over and hope the ones i have posted here show up them. Bandwidth is used when digital content is viewed from a link you posted on another website or sent in an email (e.g., MySpace, eBay, message boards, etc.). Bandwidth is a measure of the number of bytes passed over time via direct linking. It is calculated by adding up the size of each of your images or videos as they are sent from Photobucket. The “Monthly Bandwidth" number is the amount of bandwidth you have used within the last month. The month is determined by the day of the month you registered your account. Example You have various images of 25K each in size that are viewed by 100 users on your favorite message board in one day. You also have one video of 15000K that is viewed by 10 users in one day. 25K * 100 requests = 2500K (or 2.5MB). 15000K * 10 requests = 150000K (or 1500MB). When you add the two together, you have used 152.5MB of bandwidth in one day. Important! Do not confuse bandwidth with your album size. Bandwidth usage is unmetered for Pro accounts, however Photobucket reserves the right to disable direct linking on accounts that use excessive bandwidth or are otherwise abusing the system. Free accounts are allowed 10GB of bandwidth per month, and Pro accounts are unmetered. 10GB is hundreds of thousands of images viewed via direct links, and the value resets each month on the anniversary of the day you registered. Bandwidth resets each month on the anniversary of the day you originally registered. Example: You registered on the 5th of June, and your bandwidth will reset on the 5th of each month thereafter.

Something is wrong with my photo bucket so Im just doing a little test

Just deleted 3 pages worth of pics and no difference? It has really got me stumped.

I do have flickr, and I just uploaded my pic of Coop for the 52 weeks and it went thier no worries, it just seems to be here that it is saying exceds band width? Very strange, the PB account does not tell me that I am over my limit, my old one did, told me when I was close to exceeding the limit so I just made a new account. Ill go back and look at an old thread and see if its the same.

Seems to be my signature and all the photos I have posted everywhere on ther forum?
