Toujour replied to Toujour's topic in Training / Obedience / Dog Sports
Thank you! ive printed an entry form..... now i have to figure out how to fill it in -
Hmmm im amazed i havent ran into your lot i train sometimes at Port Kembla on hill 60 or in the fishermans bay area. The lake bike track is too busy with too many people and dogs passing by. My fav spot down here in the illawarra is on the soccer/soft ball fields behind the netball/basketball courts in Berkeley flat ground and so big that you can see people and their dogs coming from quite a distance. Normally very quite back there.

wow lots happening in here! Socialisation - is a big MUST in any breed! ettiqutte is something not all dogs have (both human and/or dog) Puppy preschool is normally conducted in a vet clinic on constantly cleaned floors. to my knowledge, parvo is more commonly found/affected on grass areas and urinated areas eg tree bases, poles, etc you can go for a walk to the corner shop and bring parvo in on your shoes into your 'safe' home. All my gals were taken to family member houses before their vacc was up and running. So puppy preschool for an 8wk old would have been fine. IMO Corvus's posts about socialisation was i very good post I agree with alot of the comments in here about owner behaviour/mood will have an affect on the puppy/dog (dogs read humans like a book) if your nervous most dogs will thing they have to guard their owners. Calm behaviour is what you need from both human and dog. You and your mother would benefit from reading Ceaser Millians book (they are real easy to read) - he discusses calm assertive behaviour extremely well, and gives alot of different case senario's. For those who 'hate' CM i must say that his books brought me over to a new level and taught me sooo much about pack leadership (dynamics) and pointed so many behaviour keys that i didnt notice before. But i am a fan of Dr Bruce Fogle. You need to understand more of Hugo's dog needs before you ask him to accept your human needs. Being a dog owner means that you need to adjust your life style to model the new pack member. Look around for some dog training clubs and go along and participate in something basic like obedience. I previously had no 'doggy' friends untill i started attending obedience on a weekly baises. i now have a very close friend (who is older than my mother) but we now do play dates for our dogs outside of the obedience. If you want 'doggy' friends you need to get out there and start to mingle with people I respect what SDDU was trying to get you to understand about asking other breeders for their own personal information sheets and food recommandations. Breeders (such as - say for instance SDDU) have spent alot of time to put together info sheets that they hand down to their puppies owners - as part of their responsisbility and helpful manner - to take care of their prefix puppies. Different breeders have different perspectitives on food requirements (brands) and additives - Hugo's 'prefix mum' might not like the fact that you go against her recommandation and might take offence to the other breeder for 'filling' her position. Hence why they always recommand that you go to your own breeder. Lucky for me all 4 of my breeders feed the same food brand i understand that you may feel confussed and 'stretched' at times with conflicting recommandations (i know i was there once too) - but this happens in the human world aswell: one parent sends their kid to a public school, another one to a private school and one gets home schooled - all of them sit own to the same exam at the end of the year. You will always have 'options' but the thing you really need to grasp is 'commitment' - pick a path and stick to it, instead of hmming and ahhhing what to do. you could pick 10 people off one forum and compare their 'doggy' lifestyle and find extremes in each of them - doesnt make only one of them right - but the common conception you will see is a commitment to a particular course i think would recommand that you set yourself some goals, get some informational books and enlist yourself into a dog club - that you can enjoy. Start structuring Hugo's training a little bit more (i would start with only offering him food for 10min and then removing it). Dont know about your lifestle but i know my parents never let us pick at the food in the cupboards all day because they knew we wouldnt eat our dinner

Storm is 16mths and has only had her nails cut once (and boy were they long) they are all due for another cute - espically Raiven - there heaps sharp
-
i would place the clippers on the floor and when he goes near them - treat him.

hmmm i know that purina makes afew products that you can buy at woolies in the pet section. i havent and probably never will use them. actionly i have used the cat wormer from there - but it was for my ferrets (back in my high school days)

No not on a big income. my house was a run down old housing commission house. the place was a bomb! lucky for me my dad works with bobcats and excavators and my pop is a concretor and my cousin is electrician came in handy to make the place liveable. still lots of work to do but the income wage only stretches so far i wouldnt cut the chews in half! btw: i have a partner who is extremely handy around the house. But all the dog expenses come out of my pocket.

im only 22 and bought my own house (which mean i have bills and home loan repayments) i watch where i spend my money too. there is no tick prevention that i can find that you can spend $20 a year on. shampoo is not convincing enough for me to protect a dog against ticks btw: my dogs are my 'fur kids' (probably not the only person out there) all my 'spending' money goes to them.

.... in one week, scary
-
This is all hypothetically assuming that the worming tablets will cost me the same as what they cost Toujour though pretty sure if you vet doesnt have the same figure, check another vet shop. otherwise i can post you some - the only thing is they arent in a pretty label box - when i buy them they open their huge jar and ask how many i want (which i usually buy like 30 of them) then they place in an empty little jar for me to take home.

Adcocate is $166.83 for 12months .... where are you going to find a tick product for $20 for 12months cover??? this morning my dogs had their advantix put on and as a reward to standing still i gave them their heartguard (silly's think its a treat) no confussion to have to handle these products - and both products come with stickers for my calender to remind me for the next month when i need to do it again
-
Damn i clicked on the wrong thing and got the 3month price and x by 2 woops (with the advantix hence the wrong figure. your correct $187.87 (total) for 12months cover
-
Nope not priceless pets - still my Vet Shop Australia site (hence why i said with change) doing it off my provider came to excatly $147
