  1. I would also be interested in hearding classes in the Hunter Valley
  2. Mine handles the Kelpie hair with no problems. I empty mine after each use, although its not always full.
  3. I have set up the Stirling robot, as for cleaning it is as good as the roomba, a lot quieter, but my roomba would be about 7 years old so they have probably upgraded them by now. I have used the aldi one twice today and filled the dust bin up both times of which I was surprised. The mop only dry mops, so really useless, I was hoping not to have to use a mop. I will run it for the 60days satisfaction guarantee and than decide on whether to keep it.At this stage it is looking good.
  4. Aldi has the cleaner for $169, this one sweeps, vacuum, mop and UV sterilise's, comes with 3 yr warranty, On sale this morning
  5. Jelly, Daisy, Coco, Dexter, Gypsy and Babi
  6. Same with smooch, I am lucky I am home most of the time, I watch the weather forecast like a hawk now and act when the storm is about half a hour away. Several weeks ago we got a storm that wasn't forecast, it came through the night, I woke to the bed shaking before I heard the clap of thunder, Smooch was that bad I had to get him into bed, cover him up and hold him tight in a bear hug. I ended up with bruises on my arms from Smooch trying to get away. It was just too late to dress him.
  7. We had a bad storm here late this afternoon, when the storm was about half a hour away I put the thundershirt and mut muffs onto Smooch also gave him a dose of Rescue Remedy, he survived the storm pretty well, he mostly lay on the floor next to me instead of trying to climb under the computer table. Finally a win.
  8. I use the ruffwear grip tex boots, not too sure how good they would be on the beach, I think they would get sand in them and rub the dogs feet.
  9. Sounds like it could be FCE (spinal stroke) some dogs recover within min of it happening, some take months like my Smooch who took over six months and has never completly recovered from it. My vet said FCE is getting more and more common for some reason.
  10. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=686607348035342&set=a.172433719452710.42240.172426779453404&type=1&theater I like this guy
  11. The storm rolled in in the early hours of the morning, I wasn't expecting a storm and therefore wasn't ready for it. I did get Smoochies thunder shirt out a couple of days ago thinking I would soon need it. I managed to get the shirt onto him and drag him into bed with me all to no avail, Smooch was terrified. I ended up having him in a tight bear hug but every time there was a rumble he would shake that hard the bed was shaking also. Now have to find the Rescue remedy and have it handy although it doesn't make a lot of difference to him. I am so dreading the summer storms as the older Smooch gets the worse he seems to be getting with storms or any noise.
  12. I have to use a muzzle on Smooch when he goes to the vet and also through the night as he likes to sneak to the bottom of the bed and lick his leg off a night. This is the one I use as they can also drink with it on. http://www.farmerswarehouse.com.au/product.php?productid=22552&cat=0&page=1
  13. I was with Insurance Line, was happy with it for years until smooch turned 12 than his monthly premium more than doubled to $115 per month, could not afford this on a pension.
  14. We have these on all our dogs, they used to loose tags in a short time, these have been on them for a few years now. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/DOG-TAG-ID-PET-NAME-LARGE-BRASS-GOLD-BUY-1-GET-1-FREE-/121071305053?pt=AU_Pet_Supplies&hash=item1c3069815d

  18. Smooch has left the odd ball bearing, Poor baby had no idea it fell out of him. with his disability he has to be actually walking or moving to empty his bowels.
  19. And pushes my hand off the mouse. If I continue to ignore him he grabs my cloths and gives it a gentle pull the pull gets stronger and stronger if I continue to ignore him.
  20. Great news, hopefully the full tab will do the job.
  21. Thanks, that is handy to know. I ended up getting mine through Amazon only about $6 cheaper, postage was only a few days.
  22. Smooch did try and take it off for a couple of min but fine after. He is generally pretty good with anything I try on him as he has to ware a muzzle to bed as he is OCD and licks his leg of a night when I can't see him. Funny think is he never touches it when I leave him home on his own, think he just sulks lol. He really hats being away from me. His OCD is that way when he is nice and relaxed he closes his eye's and starts licking.
  23. Smoochies ear muffs turned up last week. We have a storm coming through atm. I did give Smooch some Rescue remedy and put the ear muffs on. So far so good, he is shaking a little but overall he is laying on the floor near my chair and not trying to climb under the computer table. smooch
