A friend sent me some amusing military photos...thought I'd post this one :D

I can imagine that! Daisy would have a kids voice.."pickme pickme pickme O pleeze pickme" Penny-Bossy-Boots would sound like a prefect.."No running in the corridors, stop playing zoomies" and Mac would just go in a Nick Park/Aardman Turtle or Slug voice " Oooookkkkay, whatever"

I was looking for a Westie and Googled 'Westie for sale' and there was an advertisment on DOL for 2 older (10 & 8) Westies that had to go together. I didn't want dogs that old so continued looking.There was a few others for sale in other States that I made a note of to contact the next day. I woke up at 2am thinking about the two older ones...emailed Victoria at 2.30am and went and bought them the next day best thing I have ever done! I hadn't known of DOL existence until then.

Yes raineth...flaxseed meal is good (called linseed meal in the supermarket) keep it in the fridge so it holds its goodness. Mine get 1/2-->1 tsp sprinkled on their dinner. You could also put a little cold pressed extra virgin olive oil in as well (it's a good price at Aldi, $19.99 for 4L Australian olive oil)

Yep...I reckon you are correct Sky, when people stop to say hello to my lot they always have the same story of knowing someone or having had a Westie. I bought a old postcard with some Westies on it off ebay and the seller said her next-door neighbour had one ..getting back to the topic...there was a beautiful Ridgeback at the John Goss park in West Chermside on Saturday 12th (Westie Clubs BBQ day)

okey dokey Mirawee, that'd be good. Thanks

If you do, and would like a $50 treatment voucher (FREE) at the Smooth Synergy Cosmedic Clinic. It is for a treatment and is not redeemable on retail products - not redeemable on cosmetic injectables or cosmetic tattooing - redeemable on treatments only . I have posted this in the for sale section but no replies yet and as it needs to be redeemed by the 30th I thought i would post here. I won it in a competition. Just email me and I will forward my email and you can print it out and phone them up. If ya do want to pay something after the treatment (if the treatment is really good I mean) you could donate some money to PACERS.

Perhaps try turkey necks, ask your pet food supply shop. My pet food shop gets them in from a distributer who buys them direct from Ingams in North Qld. They are human food-grade and there is 14kg in the box.

I am so sorry that your little sweetie is no longer with you BBB. I know he was your special boy. RIP little Bazzy-Mate

on ebay (US Seller) it's pretty cute http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150620136308&ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:AU:1123

My squares went yesterday also, with a bit of luck and good management by AP you should get them Friday

I emailed them last week to ask them the ingredients breakdown on Pernease powder as they has a special on (Sacha's Blend ingredients and percentages were there, but not Pernease powder) I received an email back within a couple of hours listing the ingredients and percentages and also note to say they were exactly the same. It's good to know that someone is on the receiving end of the emails and will read them, then send you a sensible answer.

perhaps we could have a ratting play-date? http://www.couriermail.com.au/news/queensland/army-of-rats-the-size-of-possums-invade-goodna/story-e6freoof-1226072746676 Army of rats 'the size of possums' invade Goodna * From: The Courier-Mail * June 10, 2011 6:39AM Rats in the ranks: These unwelcome visitors are running amok in flood-ravaged suburbs around Brisbane. Source: The Advertiser A PLAGUE of giant rats has invaded at least one outer-Brisbane suburb ravaged by floods. Ipswich City Council has already reacted to the vermin explosion and is planning to use a fox-terrier canine force to hunt down and kill the rats, which have been rrported in homes around Goodna, the Queensland Times reports. The vermin have doubled in numbers since January’s flood and, with the cooler weather setting in, are now nesting in people’s homes. Goodna resident Keiron Butler told the Queensland Times there had been a surge in rats on his property. “Some are as big as possums, they’re massive things,” Mr Butler said.[/color] And to top it off there is a picture of a 'giant rat'

I bought some off a wonderful seller on ebay...the auction had 8 days to go but she sold me a fat quarter for the starting price anyway. I hope to get it tomorrow so will cut it up ad post off asap. it is neat looking dog piccies...no calendulas (though the bum of the poodle looks a bit like a calendula flower) :-D

I caught some of it on the news last night...the dog is home (good!) but still has no collar or tag (not so good)...perhaps the TV channel can buy the owners one.

I saw a Llama tied up outside Freemasons hotel just the other week poor bugger had a NSW scarf wrapped around its neck too. I know the police booked that guy who always rode his horse through the main street and up to the Freemasons at night...if I can remember correctly they booked him for having transport with no tail light

A few years back, when I lived in Gympie, I was at the plaza/mall and a teenage girl and her mother were carrying around a kangaroo joey wrapped up in a cloth. The poor little bugger had only the finest covering of fur, had it's head stuck out of the cloth and was shivering.

I have had those calls as well...I just laughed and then said something rude about how Telstra wouldn't give anyone even a $1 discount on their bill let alone 50%...bunch of D***k heads

I'll check that out tomorrow Akay, thanks very much. I'm just gunna go and hunt for some fat quarter material for Erny's patchwork quilt...I think there is some with westies on it for sale in 'quicksales' :D

Thanks for that...I did a quick check on costs Pernaese powder: http://sharlee.com.au/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=293&utm_source=myshopping&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=Pet+Supplies&utm_term=Pernaese+Powder+250gr Sacha's blend (very wide price range among sellers but Vet&Pet Direct seemed the cheapest): http://www.vetnpetdirect.com.au/SASHA250G?utm_medium=cpc&utm_source=myshopping&utm_campaign=Pet+Supplies&utm_term=Sasha+s+Blend+Powder+for+Dogs+250g are you buying your Pernaese powder cheaper than the shop above? by the way, the Sharlee Stockfeeds site seems pretty good

Penny and Mac are now OAP's and though they still seem fairly supple I think it may be time to pop them onto something like Sacha's Blend or similar. They do get home made BARF and I mix in cold pressed olive oil (Aldi brand, made in Oz and only $19.99 4L) when I make up the big batch of vegie slops. They also get linseed meal sprinkled on their tea in their evenings. I got a 50g pkt of Sacha's Blend in that offer that was advertised on DOL a while back so I have been putting that on their food as well (it smells wonderful :-D ) Is Sacha's the best one to get price/quality wise or is there an alternative that anyone has tried and found helpful?

That is good news Teebs

Penny is the only dog I have had that gets matts on her elbows. I thought I kept them all pretty tangle free (especially their armpits) but I found little matts on her elbows
