Rebanne

I am glad I was able to bring you out of lurkdom, you never know where you might meet a doler!

Today Miller got the last points needed for his Aus Ch title. Miller is my "first born", the first pup from the first litter. The journey has had a couple of rough spots in it but we weathered them together. My bouncing baby boy. Aust Ch Brantarby Blast From The Past (AI)

Me and the greyhounds are entered for the weekend, going for sure Sat, not sure about Sunday yet.

what pup paid for the stud fee and/or the surgical AI? My last, and so far only litter, I had a stud fee, surgical AI, c-section and all the other normal costs associated with raising a litter. Bitch had 2 pups, one sold and one kept, where's my profit?

some people may not advertise the price in case it tempts thieves. If people don't ask the price in their 1st approach to me I tell them, we both might as well know early on if the price is within their budget.

Lighting a candle is a symbol of hope. The threads about Jed are full of hope that she recovers well & that her dogs & other pets are safe. It was a fitting suggestion someone made, to light a candle...& raise a glass...for her. Thank you Mita I was just about to reply when I saw your post, you said it so much better than I could have I'm afraid I struggle to find the right words sometimes in these situations to each their own, I just find the thought of burning something for burns victims, not my cup of tea, sorry don't really have the words either to express myself properly

burn a candle, for house fire victims

X 2 :D

you'll have to hunt down a copy of Disney's The Fox and the Hound, most likely book and film are the same

Trust us everyone, it's a great 3 days whatever the weather and wherever you are set up

Were you with Sway on the first day??? I'm sure you were next to us but maybe I'm thinking of a different show. I just remember the rain and BBJ staying over. we are getting old I was with Sway and you and BBJ were over the far side, that bit I remember cause we only had one gazebo the Friday because we both thought the other had the 2nd one

:thumbsup: Congratulations!

Oh I can think of a few reasons, a donation to the local club, a nice day out with friends and like minded people, valuable experience for yourself and your dog (if needed).

I know I was there but I don't remember the weather, maybe cause Sway had her heater with her and we were sharing

if you are happy with your dogs and how they have done on the food you have been feeding why change?

mud was the year before wasn't it , still a great 3 days

:mad the OP's dog is a rude dog and I can't fathom why they think it it ok to behave this way

only if you are prepared to travel. It's the same wherever you are, if you want to go to something you find a way, if you don't you won't. I am passing up 5 shows within 2 and 1/2 hrs of me later this year cause nights away, costs and having 2 aged dogs to look after at home, my choice.

You have no idea if this happened ( the bolded bit ) such awful assumptions being made in this thread. Need I say that experience goes hand in hand with the comments that I have made. I do not make such comments lightly. Yes, you could be right Rebanne and then again I could be right. I guess, at the end of the day, we will never know for sure. you have no experience with this person though so have no idea

I had a dog with with these issues for several weeks and she was under vet care the whole time. How can you make such unfounded statements?

at least some people have a specialty that they can choose whether to go or not.

shut them both in their crates at the same time to start with

it is perfectly alright to feed raw eggs as long as the whole egg is fed. Yolk are full of biotin thus negating the egg white.

Where did you find this nonsense? A litter from two parents of two different breeds produces licorice allsorts. Go look at some of those designer mutt websites. All the progeny are different in size, coat type and overall apperance. No way can you tell what "breed" of dog you are looking at. + 1
