Why don't you just get the test done asap and ease your mind? It is obviously bothering you big time.

No

I imagine cause you are saying you want to breed as quick as possible. That would make most people very wary and poodles are exploited enough already. What do you say besides you want to breed within 12 months? Do you talk about showing, health tests etc?

My latest puppy, 8 month old greyhound is very chewy and found an old nylabone that I have had for around 10 years. She loved it until she lost it somewhere. Only pup/dog that did like it. I'm buying her a new one to keep her happy. Can't give her frozen bones etc in the house with the other dogs. They all get bones outside but in the house Phoebe can have her chosen chewtoy, no one else wants it :D

oh the visual!

One of my favourite songs I've done video's of the greys running with some ACDC soundtracks, works great

My rising star is Phoebe, 7 months old now. Picked up a couple of baby in group and has merrily disgraced herself since turning 6 months old. We do have our first 6 points though :laugh: A friend has shown her her in this video, we won't be out much as my knee has died and I am waiting to see the surgeon. Warrior is at the front

kdf I was replying to the OP. They were the ones mentioning greyhounds at shows. If I was replying to you I would have quoted you.

Not all greyhounds at shows are racebred. Most are actually show bred ones and are very much in the minority. I have show bred ones and I can assure you they are much loved pets and I don't know of a single one put down cause they weren't successful in the ring.

Glad you are happy with the outcome, here's to continued smooth sailing :)

that is what I would do as well. Even if the tubes are tied you still have to treat her as an entire bitch when she is in season.

you can get baby gates with a little cat door down the bottom. I've seen them on places like deals direct.

very cute!

I feed supercoat and optimum to my greyhounds, pups and adults. They do well on it. No reason you can't keep your pup on it.

What's the difference between these and the Curly Coat Retriever please

My nearly 7 month old greyhound pup has been running with the adults since she was 7 weeks old, firstly with her litter mates and was 16 weeks old once the others left. I've always left pups alone with the adult dogs and never had a problem. As Archie and your girl will most likely not live together all their lives it would be a good idea to teach them both to be capable of living alone and independently. I don't make any special effort to teach mine I must admit, it just seems to happen.

you will still have plenty of opportunity to teach Remy where to go to toilet as I am assuming she will be inside quite often with you when you are home.

ears are totally wrong, would drive me batty having that in the house

I thought it was for a Cert 4 in some Tafe course?

K9+ for me as well

VCA says pups to be registered in Victoria must be whelped in Victoria. I asked this very same question of them and was told bitch must whelp in Vic for pups to be registered in Vic. I didn't ask what would happen if I didn't bring the bitch back for whelping. Ask them to point you towards the regulation. Never take the word of the office staff in any state for a regulation. You need to read it yourself to make sure they have not got it wrong. They cannot possibly know every regulation off the top of their head. The ANKC are the registering body, not Dogs Vic, who just process the registration. There is nothing on a registration application asking where the litter was whelped, it just requires that the bitch is owned by the prefix holder and that the prefix holder is resident in the state where they are registered. Yes there is in Victoria

incorrect for Victoria as I have stated previously
