  1. He won't be 2 for ever, many people have done it, my mum did it with us as has my sister. I guess the question is do you want to?? I'd much rather watch a 2 year old playing and learning about animals than listen to someones abandoned dog bark ring side for hours because they are away socialising. JMHO Kate
  2. I have shown under Luis and John, at Royals and a decade apart in 2 states both made the event entertaining and were excellent going over the dogs. Can't say anything about the other two. Cheers Kate
  3. Can I unenter some I entered that long ago?? I'm sure there's a few in hindsight I would of been better of not entering. LOL Kate
  4. We had a 5 year old Collie girl quite sick with a case of gastritis after eating a pigs ear I purchased at a dog show - we have not purchased them since, never tested to identify the strain of the infection. Cheers Kate
  5. 2 year old high energy Collie with EPI she is on Grain free Pure Elements (not the fishy one) been on it for about a month now and is starting to regain weight slowly. Grain free dry foods are hard to find. She cleans her bowl and no problem at the other end (touch wood) shine back on her coat and a twinkle in her eye. Cheers Kate

  10. We have one, works well for some of our dogs, but I have one girl who stands and barks at it when it is turned on LOL Cheers Kate
  11. Rosettes are our favourites especially when they are donated and come from O/S :>)) Comets look nice and could be a change for a speciality show for placings or cc's Sashes are good too so long as they don't fall apart as you walk out of the ring LOL Our sashes are hung over a display cabinet door for the current year then unfortunately at the moment under the spare bed! Rosettes are pinned onto to wall hangings. I have both gold medals and Black and Gold Handler Rosettes :>)) Agree about the trophies and increase the value of the sashes or go totally to cash - but thats another topic Cheers Kate
  12. What if you are a partnership/kennel reg - (like we are) do all 4 get there mug shots on the card?? Why not move to Police checks as well. Some hobby. The undesirable will always be there as will the desirable, and no I don't have the magic answer either. Cheers Kate Hi Wayrod, when we see you back in the ring?
  13. Ditto all Sway said. Love the 'Cat'
  14. Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) So sorry for the loss of one so young. regards Kate
  15. Hi, will note on the SIBO issue as well. If it doesn't resolve we will test for EPI. It's just so expensive the test so we are trying to see if it's food intolerance first, if we can't narrow it down we will head off for the test. We usually would just go ahead with a test as we care for our pets greatly and expense isn't a prob but unfortunately we have hit a very bad patch of bills. Also spoke to breeder and they haven't had an EPI dog that they are aware of so far....but in saying that this girl's father is a recent german import. If it is a mild EPI case what is the usual procedure to control, diet only, or supplements/meds. I do know from vet the meds are limited at the moment and quite efty in price. Have also taken a look at www.epidogs.com Lots of trying this n that will also proof expensive! We had never had EPI till the first one either! EPI is ongoing treatment is a mixture of enzyme replacement and low fat foods. Our case proved a non responsive to all treatments and we lost him 6 months after diagnosis. Shock tactics YES test the dog. Cheers Kate
  16. LOL - we are on the last day ;) I'd like to know who the second string judges are just on the off chance! (sarcastic overtones) we don't get our advertised judge. The joys of a Royal lottery. Cheers Kate
  17. Sway, I am happy to take it with me, I am stewarding for the club :>)) Cheers Kate

  21. April 30 & May 1 in our Feb? gazette Cheers Kate
  22. Thanks everyone for your imput, have decided that it will be tandem. Cheers Kate
  23. Just looking for some thoughts really. We are looking at replacing our dog trailer towards the end of the year and I am really just thinking aloud. What are peoples thoughts for a six berth with wardrobe - would you go for tandem or single wheels ? pro's and con's please. Cheers Kate
  24. I would try the Lime option too, not garden lime though, it needs to be builders lime, the ground well watered both before and after. The dogs will need to be kept off it as well as the lime will burn there feet. Cheers Kate
