I've used it for years, get the dairy free powder. http://innerhealth.com.au/content/product/inner-health-dairy-free

How does that work? Aren't ALL dogs "potentially dangerous" given that they all have the capacity to bite? Or is this leaning towards BSL? We have annual dog registration fees in SA. It's not overly expensive - roughly $40 for an entire dog or $20 for a desexed dog, $5 discount for micro-chipping (which is not mandatory in SA) and $5 discount if you have a certificate to say that your dog is trained (which can be as basic as completing puppy school). Pensioners pay less again. ETA, I don't think it is a silly idea. You can't make everyone register their dogs but for the ones that do it does help to keep details current.

Ezydog make a neoprene collar. http://store.ezydog.com/neo-collar/ I'd just use a s/s fursaver either locked into place with the leash or a small steel carabiner clip. Doesn't smell, lasts forever, wont cut into the coat or tangle and strong as. efs

Separate the dogs. You've had this new dog less than 24 hours, give him time to adjust to the new household before trying to introduce him to another dog.

Kane, Kage, Kasper, Ky, Kole, Knox, Kade, Kato, Kedar, King, Koda, Kolt, Kyros. Hope it works out for you.

Yes, they are in Australia. http://www.vicoridge.com/cirnechi.cfm

I've used Rufus and Coco Bug Off spray (available for around $12 from Woolworths/Safeway/Big W) with success.

I read it. The article was poorly written and seemed to have no real point. Nothing in there about registered breeders or where or how to obtain a well bred dog, just a bunch of dribble on how they visited a puppy farm, that wasn't a puppy farm, that turned out to be selling pups to a store in Adelaide, so could have been a puppy farm....

Have you ever used an e-collar before? Used properly I can't see how it's 'awful' at all. OP, most e-collars have a pager (vibrating) function on them as well as the momentary and continuous stim.

Get a webmaster. If it's fitted properly I can guarantee that he wont get out of it. http://www.caninespi...er_products/148 Cleanrun also have free shipping in all the Julius K9 harnesses and accessories. I got new patches (Fast n Furious), chest piece and saddle bags for my Malis IDC harness for $25! I you Cleanrun!

Google.. there seem to be a few around. Pretty expensive for something that shoots air if you ask me! http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/ellenbrook/dogs-puppies/bark-control-collar/1014482606

I remember your first post about Charlie. Sorry for your loss

Well said.

We have a Cruising Canines trailer. Very good quality, easy to tow and well insulated. The dogs stay comfortable even in 35+ degree heat. Features that are optional extras on most other brands - cabin door hooks, leash hooks, bumpers, interior lighting, etc are all standard on the Cruising Canines, which is something that I really liked. Highly recommend them.

Is it this one? http://www.ebay.com.au/sch/i.html?_trksid=p5197.m570.l1313&_nkw=nylabone+frisbee&_sacat=0&_from=R40

42 inch crate and buy the wire divider to section it off as while the pup is small. http://shop.vebopet.com.au/store/xlarge-42-collapsible-metal-pet-dog-cage-crate-2.html

Thanks for the info Rappie I did find this last night http://www.ema.europa.eu/docs/en_GB/document_library/EPAR_-_Scientific_Discussion/veterinary/000109/WC500068832.pdf which suggests that the implant can take up to 90 days to become effective. It also suggest that the effect lasts longer than 12 months in most dogs. I could not find anything to suggest any percentage of failure rate though once effective. My male was not interested in my female during her last heat at all (at the time he was 2-3 months into a 6 month implant). This time he showed absolutely no interest until yesterday (day 15). And by this afternoon seems to be over it again. No pacing or whining though and not overly determined to get to her. He is currently 3 months into a 12 month implant. I do think it lowers their interest and is a good back up in preventing an unwanted breeding if they do get to each other. But would still supervise and separate as necessary regardless of the implant.

So there is no failure rate when active? - say 3-4 months into a 12 month implant

Is Suprelorin 100% effective? No real reason for asking. Just curious to know if it has a failure rate like human contraceptives - the pill, Implanon, etc? Or does it work in a different way?

Good stuff. It's going to be 40 degrees next week and I'm sure my poor girl will appreciate a nice cooling swim.

I recall reading/hearing somewhere that you shouldn't allow a bitch on heat to swim due to the risk of her developing an infection. Is this correct or just an old wives tale? Thank you
