I'd be more likely to suspect that your boy is coughing due to irritation from the tube he had in his throat during surgery... KC has a longer gestation period than a day or two... Same treatment though if he has a sore throat - the Manuka honey will sooth it for him... T.

They are all so cute!! T.

It sounds like your old girl is having a second childhood... lol! My Zeddy has funny spates like this sometimes when certain personality type rescue pups are around... and as long as whatever is ingested can pass happily through at the other end, I'm not too worried... *grin* T.

Jed - I wish I was in a position to help you out... but I don't think you'd want your sweet dogs subject to harassment from my regular rescue foster pups - although I think you might not have too much trouble finding people to look after your babies until you are ready to have them back. Wishing you a speedy road to full recovery so you can have all of your dogs currently in care back with you where they belong. T.

Give Andrea a call... http://www.companionsforlife.com.au/ T.

Beagle and Cavalier zoomies... Cavalier crazy ears zoomies... Cute Koolie puppy zoomies... Crazy scruffy zoomies... You took my toy and I'm gonna make you give it back zoomies... Big and little zoomies... I gots a toy and ain't sharing zoomies... 3 way zoomies... Uncoordinated puppy zoomies... Happy dog park zoomies... T.

This one has an older twin... Check out this photo of a particular foster I rehomed to the most perfect home... Slight resemblance methinks... T.

Loving the happy Staffords something chronic - awesome shots! T.

Better to have learned from your mistakes and moved on, than to never learn because you choose to be ignorant... You can only try - but don't push too hard if they aren't interested, OK? T.

I've had a few rescue foster pups... here are some faves... Zoe Willow meeting Zeddy... Winston (now called Herc) Clyde James getting goosed by Flower Bindi Dexter giving Trouble a pat Buster doing his Aliens impersonation Buster all safe and sound T.

I wish I lived in Victoria... *sigh* T.

Trouble has her name for a reason... but you wouldn't guess it from this photo... I love this one of Trouble and Zeddy together... My fave one of Zeddy... telling me she didn't just snaffle another dog's Puppacino... T.

OK - what about slowing down the dodgy commercial mass puppy breeders by insisting that the RSPCA (or any other body that has the powers) actually go in there and enforce the current laws that are being broken. Until the people responsible for policing the laws actually do so less than intermittently, we ain't going to see anything change - new laws or not... Get the RSPCA to go with Debra on some of her puppy farm raids that she has pics posted of all over her website... surely those sort of places can be shut down under the current laws? Maybe some of the money that is earmarked for policing any new laws could be better spent possibly advertising on TV, radio, print media, etc with some very real info on where so many of those cute little fluffy puppies in the stores actually come from? T.

When my Lab was a pup, doing the poo patrol was always an adventure... The best was one day she had been playing in a mud puddle and scoffed a gutful of mud - and she had done a perfect poop all made only of mud! Truly weird! ... oh... and we STILL don't know where the missing remote battery went - the vets swear blind it wasn't inside her... only bits of chewed up rock... err!! T.

We certainly have plenty of velvety ears for rubbing at my place SheWolf... lol! T.

They are too cute for words, that's definitely the truth. Had them outside yesterday evening while I cleaned up the day's mess in the playpen... and the little buggers decided that playing in the rain and getting all wet was a good idea... *sigh* At least I don't have any mud puddles in the yard, or I'm sure they would have had a riot of a time in one... T.

It's way too cute when they have those really fun dreams, isn't it? I think the one who needs training right now is Mum... err! T.

Stunning photo of 2 stunning dogs... I just want to cuddle them both! T.

I'd probably qualify the above with something more along the lines of "backyard bred, undersocialised, and undertrained dogs tend to develop poor temperaments anyway" Not all backyard bred dogs are going to be problem dogs - it really does come down to getting out what you put in - well bred dogs can be nasty little things when owned by idiots too... T.

They aren't always cute... it's the nice camera that takes good photos that makes them look cute... *grin* You are welcome to come play with my babies anytime too ruthless... T.

I'm gonna stick my neck out here and bet that the BF gets a new puppy for Christmas... grrr! T.

Well... you could lose the husband... then get another dog.... haha! T.

those extremely cute beagle pups keep popping up where ever I go! I seriously need to hide from Tdierikx's posts.......... tells self *cannot possibly get a second dog atm* Two dogs are twice as much fun and cuddling... I should know - never less than 2 here (currently have 3 pups, 1 adolescent, and 2 adult dogs) T.

The best puppy toys are really cheap... empty toilet rolls or paper towel rolls are a big fave with all of my fosters! Then there are plastic soft drink bottles - they LOVE those! You can get a small Coke bottle, put a little bit of uncooked rice in the bottom, tighten the lid, and roll it on the floor for hours of fun... lol! T.

Willow gets on fine with my Lab and my Rotti X... *grin* T.
