I feed supercoat to my 4 dogs and they do really well on it. They get the occassional egg with it and the odd marrow bone.

Goodo the more the merrier

There is not a lot of difference in temperament that I have seen. Both have timid, shy, aloof, loving, bold etc. Both can have a very high prey drive or very little. The greyhounds that get into pet homes while younger are usually more "dog like" for lack of a better term. Race bred can be shown, show bred can not be raced. Rarely are the two types crossed because the racing industry won't accept them and neither would most showies. Physically, on a whole, show bred are bigger - taller and longer, though there are plenty of race bred males that are at least as big as my boys and plenty are bigger. Race dogs don't worry about the set of ears for example, they worry about speed. Show bred would not win a race, but so don't many of the race bred! Racing after a lure on an oval track has only been around for about 90 - 100 years, controlled coursing a couple of hundred years before that. Hunting game for thousands of years before that. Race bred have got smaller and faster for the track, show bred have got larger and possibly a bit slower. But as they were never timed, hard to tell. They are coursed competively overseas. They can still catch bunnies. Race bred are in their thousands. Show bred are not. At the last Melbourne Royal there were people from NSW and SA as well as VIC and between us all we could only come up with around 70 - 80 showbred greys in the country. We rounded it up to 100 just to make sure we had them all covered. In NZ there are 6! 4 of them not yet 4 months old. There may possibly be 2 more but they would be very old so not likely to be around. Greyhounds are S curves top and bottom, the show bred more so.

I got my rotary tool from Bunnings. It's cordless and has 5 different speeds. Brand is GMC and it's 9.6 volts there is a number on it: DEC004DC as I said I have had mine for around 3 years so may not have the same one's in stock still

how stupid! if you don't advertise where most people look how are these people ever going to find out about good breeders and good dogs It's up to the breeder to then vet any potential owner no matter where they come from.

Have you found your dremel "wannabe" ok? or would you go with dremel next time? There is a big price jump!!! my wannabe is great, very happy with it. It was around $60, much cheaper then the equivalent dremel.

I use a cordless rotary tool (dremel wanabee) I bought from Brunnings. Had it at about 3 years and do 3 dogs with it. I go through sanding bands a lot quicker then Erny! I use 1/2 inch bands both rough and fine. I tried the smaller bands but they didn't do as good a job. Others swear by them.

and I never did use any of them :D

How did things go today?

I got mine off the USA ebay site, they were cheaper than anything here. Now I know about the garden supply places I would just buy from there.

how many breeds are entered on average? How many have a dog and a bitch entered? I don't mind having cards left over but I don't want to run short!

The cane. It holds 12 straws or 3 to 6 vials depending on the size of the vial. Google tells me vial = pellet. Each pellet is one breeding unit. Stud cattle sites very helpful, gave me key words to refine my search

Got my answer, can't complain about the company, Sat arvo and they are still happy to help me

I have emailed the company and asked this question but curiosity means I don't want to wait When you get a quote to import FS is it for each individual straw or is it for a cane? And a cane holds 6 to 8 straws?

Thanks for that freundhund, I've found 10 ! near me ranging from 35 k's to 90 k's, never know when it might come in handy

Yep... They're blue. Ta, just got to try and work out how many I'll need.

are the BOB and challenge certificates different for neuters? I need to order cards in soon

maybe cause the surrounding area's were flooded or unde rthreat of being flooded and people had more important things to do such as save houses etc Geez Louise, these decisions aren't made lightly, get a grip, it's only a dog show

is the cujo kennel big enough? cause you could buy a pop up gazebo to put over it. I use one in my dog run, well anchored, it never moves. When the roof gives out I put a tarp over the frame in winter, shade cloth in summer works well

The only way to do it is to lease your bitch to a breeder who already has a prefix. Preferably that would be the breeder who trusted you enough to sell you a main registered bitch. Does your breeder know of your plans? I would be ropable if a bitch I bred was leased to someone else without my input being asked.

mine all went up, I cancelled Piper's. In 2 years I had never made a claim for him, his excess was $200 and he is coming up 11. Still got the other 2 insured though.

Ovens Valley at Myrtleford will have them at their shows on April 2 and 3rd.

I had a bitch spayed at 3 yrs. Couple years later I found a pea size lump next to a teat. Had it removed, but not tested, she never had any more. Currently have a 4 1/2 yo entire bitch no lumps. I keep an eye on all my dogs, anybody gets a lump, it's spotted pretty quick and attended too.

Here in Victoria we have a lure coursing area at KCC Park and it is advertised on the Dogs Victoria website. but they are still only fun runs, no titles on offer. Competitive coursing, different sorts, all behind a lure, are huge overseas. Can get different titles from different orgs.
