ORIVET and MASSEY not compatible.  All dogs have to be tested one or the other for mains registration.  Not happy with DogsQld as both testers recommended by DogsQld one after the other.

Q.  To main register puppies where sire is Massey dna'd and dam is Orivet dna'd, how do you combine information for parentage?

Is there a link to calculate Coefficient of Inbreeding for ANKC - DogsQld?

Thank you in advance for any advice.  For a 4kg puppy aged from 8 weeks, what are the veterinary requirements and all up costs transport Australia to New Zealand?  Do pet transporters set it all up for you?  I have heard cost about $2,000 upwards?

PM to you

RESOLUTION:  Will go to dog show but without dog.  Will disinfect on arrival home.  Will relax on the weaning.  All posts appreciated, thank you.  P.S.  Did a yummy mummy makeover groom yesterday. Cheers

 

 

I am considering taking my bitch to a show when her puppies are 4 weeks old and weaned by 3 1/2 weeks old. 

I don't have any experience in this particular situation and seeking Yes/No answers to questions please:

Will her boobs have dried off enough for her to be comfortable?

Would a show day away from home/puppies be too stressful for her?

Could there be a possibility of disease like parvo being encountered?

Any advice taken on board for a learning experience - with thanks.

 

 

Check out Gumtree for pet sitters.

Try a Thundershirt? Quote: Lulu also is less likely to jump on visitors, and our walks are a bit less eventful with the Thundershirt. One neighbor even took time to compliment her during a daily walk, saying Lulu seems so much different in her new sweater. Thundershirts also look pretty sporty, similar to vests worn by racing greyhounds. After several rounds in the washing machine, those Velcro strips have not lost their grip.

Maybe a hand held ultra sonic dog alarm deployed as aggression begins would distract the dog and give control to you as a "shout".

Thank you :D

There is a canine chiro at Wavell Heights called Nat and Darcy they do people and animals

Thank you :)

There is a Chiro/Natural therapy centre at Morayfield -Dog Chiropractic and Therapy Centre. I personally haven't any experience with them but maybe someone else has been there.

Does anyone know of a good Canine Chiropractor or Acupuncturist Brisbane northside?

Please can you share the details?

Thanks in Advance

Thank you for being a human with a human brain. Thank you for understanding a dog with a dog brain.

As a dog rescuer, I hear about issues in this situation very regularly so this is a topic that actually raises my blood pressure somewhat.

What the general population don't realise is that many dogs get beaten, euthanased or dropped to the pound for euthanasia BECAUSE they have killed a chicken.

I've rescued dogs just in the nick of time - beautiful dogs that were expected to live in a garden with free range chickens but killed them and were about to die themselves.

I've spoken to dropkick owners including the man who'd rescued a "lovely dog that I love" 5 years before and suddenly decided it was time to get some free range chickens. Hmmm, surprisingly the dog suddenly killed a couple and he had punished it severely before putting the dog back in the same scenario - guess what? Followed it's instinct again. It was time for the dog to move on he said.

I said what I had to say, in a nice way - that he had very unrealistic expectations that his dog should live with chickens and that it's the chickens that should go. The dog went. Some people don't understand the meaning of love, it's all about what suits at the time.

Perhaps removing the water bowl after her evening meal or after last night toileting may help. Then a fresh bowl of water after first toileting in the morning. If she's restless and lapping water to help pass the night her little tank will be extra full.

Thanks for the apple cider vinegar idea. I'm going to try the Pee Post and top it off with your garden guru's mix.

A friend who is a garden guru told me to buy a watering can and throw 1 cup of apple cider vinegar in it and fill the rest up with water.Then water where they pee. Helps the grass and no smell.

Of course I look like a crazy woman racing around in my nightgown at 11pm with a watering can but hey, my aim is to amuse the neighbours.
