it's called making an informed choice. An informed choice..... what to let your animals die from Distemper, Hepatitis or Parvo should they be exposed to these diseases. That in my book is not an informed choice, that is just plain fool hardy. (Excluding medical reasons) or they can die from over vaccinating or live a life full of misery from the reactions some have when over vaccinated.

ordered on the weekend and arrived here Tuesday morning

That is the easiest way to put them up by yourself!!! I will be watching to see which company has the compact deluxe on sale in the next few months, I have a 3 x 3 Oztrail Deluxe and I love it, but when going away without the trailer it would be easier to have a smaller / shorter version. Thank you for posting this thread it has been interesting reading the responses. yes I will be watching for sales as well, no real hurry to get one.

Hi Cavalblaze, your babies are beautiful! Do they nearly take your fingers off if you are silly enough to handfeed them mince? All going to plan re enough pups having show potential, I think I have one left still looking for a home.

yep it's the mad scramble all over her that seems to be too much for Fern. They aren't far from drinking off her standing up how did they get so big, so quick? It took a while for the brindle to show up on the blue but she's very pretty.

That's handy to know for the future

I can put up a deluxe gazebo on my own, I have heard the compacts can be a bit harder until they loosen up. I usually get the frame up enough to put the roof on, then climb under and push up from the centre.

Fern's cracked it to a certain extent. She is still cleaning up after them but only feeds them when I tell her too. I think she finds them a bit overwhelming when they fall upon her like famished sharks! She is much happier when I have fed them first and they aren't so frantic.

You obviously don't visit facebook much. Topics on here are regularly cross posted and discussed already. I use facebook all the time and have only seen the odd topic crossed over, and only very recently. I am obviously not political enough, or, more truthfully, am not "friends" with the "right" people

please let us know how you get on, soft crates are so popular I'm sure you won't be the only one needing ideas on how to repair them.

all have come home sitting on the passengers lap, longest time was 3 and 1/2 hrs.

I have one at the foot of the bed, the rest are in the dog trailer for shows. Of course the greys have the choice of 2 couches or my bed for alternative sleeping places but they all take turns sleeping in the crate (open)

fair enough, I am stalking your posts in the July thread for pics! :D

enough??

sorry! 2011 litter

but then people at least have to go to the trouble to click on the link to read it. Can see alot of user names changing in a hurry.

I would suggest going to a saddler with the crate and ask them if they can sew some shadecloth or the soft flywire mesh onto the door panel.

I'm happy with my cheapy one, no problems with it yet, 3 years old and going strong. I am sure I will be just as happy with the one I have ordered from Dyzney as I am happy with everything else I have got from her over the past few years. Great reliable service from someone I have a history with.

do you know how to send photo's via email? if so I can put them up for you. Will PM you

me too that photo needs to photoshop out the flag hanging from Shimmer's tummy though

why? The breeder of my bitch is not big on communication but I would go back to her again. Shes breeds great dogs.

years and years ago when I had German Shepherds I made up a prefix from their names, never thought I would end up breeding greyhounds, it was my first choice; Brantarby - Brandy, Tara, Abby and it doesn't include the name of my best GSD ever Zoe

I know gazebo's topics abound but I am thinking of downsizing to a deluxe compact gazebo, mainly cause it would fit in my car and I wouldn't need to tow the trailer to show just one dog. So good reviews or bad?
