I have border collies & feed them drumsticks. I have never fed chicken necks but used to feed turkey necks, but they are now hard to find & more expensive than chicken drumsticks, which are often on special. I have always fed them straight from the freezer . It takes them longer to chew them & they have lovely teeth. I also feed frozen pilchards

Hmmmmm....a self confessed dog trainer for 4 years & only 24 years old

There are pieces of grain coming out in their poo. They are fine otherwise & poos are right consistancy tho probably a bit bigger than normal.

I have started feeding VAN plus kangaroo meat, but notice that it is coming out in their poos. They also get a variety of either frozen drumsticks, frozen pilchards, raw egg and/or yogurt Is this the way it should be?

What is P

I have used Cetrizine in the past for a dog with reverse sneezing

Money heals all wounds apparently . She would be covered by medibank. I would bet the two dogs were entire

& 99% of them in the Council Pound are still entire, same with the cats

I carry my own insurance. I worked out 4 years ago when I got my new pup, what the minimum monthly premium would be for two border collies & have been putting that away in a special account ever since. One of my dogs is now elderly & probably wouldn't be able to be insured anyway, but I keep putting away each month into the account. Even with deductions I have accumulated over $4000

Sorry can't answer your question but what is a Cockalier. Never heard of them, is it a new breed?

According to the post on Facebook, it is an ongoing battle with RSPCA not doing anything about it & also the council. It is a nightmare for her neighbours as well as those poor animals

My boy hates thunderstorms & can detect them coming even before there is any rumbling. I give him Vetalogica chews (2) plus I have a wide cloth collar that I spray with Adaptil. It seems to work. He is still a bit stressed but he doesn't want to chase & bark at it anymore. Just hides away in my bedroom. He feels secure in there apparantly

Yes. I have more photos, as it is in my community area & is constantly being put up on our community facebook page

Thank goodness someone else raised that affliction. It is so annoying that I have given up trying to read his/her comments

Same thing happens at dog club Christmas parties

I have one in my class & while I think they are a lovely dog, I agree, their howling would wake the dead

That would have been Kelly Gill with her lovely border collies & Alex, the Pap at the Dog Lovers Show. A Google of The Wonderdogs will bring up lots of videos of Kelly & Alex

My chosen breed is border collies, but if ever I could no longer have a BC, my choice would be a Papillion. I couldn't have one living here on the farm, as I would be worried of him/her being taken by a wedge tailed eagle or even just a chicken hawk . I didn't know that they didn't have an undercoat....that's interesting !!

Very strange. I have grown up with horses all my life (70yrs) & never seen a chestnut that colour before. Maybe it is the colour that comes out on my computer screen as being not chestnut

Maybe they should have let the horse do its thing & kick the f***g dog in the head, which is what usually happens

Both look like bays to me. The one on the beach is a different horse...that one is a chestnut

I have been feeding the top of the range from Supercoat for the past 12 months. There are two, True Origin Fish & True Origin Chicken & I alternate the two. It is about $39 for a 7 kilo bag, but I buy it when it is on special & stock up. Woolies sell it, so it is easy to get. My dogs love it & they are both looking good. They also get frozen pilchards, chicken drumsticks & raw eggs

I have asked a few people lately as to why they have chosen an oodle over a pure bred poodle or whatever the other breed happens to be & the answer is that they are available imediately . Basically they are "I want it now" people & they can't see the importance of going on a waiting list for the pure bred, & they dont care what it cost. They are readily available & with covid lockdowns & working from home lots more people have bought companion animals

Goat horns or frozen kongs filled with mince ( I used kangaroo mince)or stuffed with chicken hearts (frozen)
