I bought one and it had no effect at all .
-
i have 2 Syntec leads from them, they are great leads,good when wet and look like new still. However the first one i bought has a different clip and when my dog shakes her head it can come undone! not great with a powerful dog.I did contact them about it and tbh they didn't give a shit. The new ones have a different clasp so hope this one is ok. ( the dodgy one has a brass fitting).

My old boy never gave up running and chasing rabbits everyday until his hips finally gave way at 14.and we had to let him go. He did sleep more, but he lived for his walks, head down sniffing out bunnies , checking in with me. i lost him 2 years ago and think about him everyday and wish i had him back, he was the best dog i ever owned.

It seems to have good reviews for storm phobias, but nothing on fearful dogs and about.
-
Do they work ? VERY fearful older dog , who is scared of the outside world . My personal thoughts is it’s time for meds but the shirt has been suggested ( herbal remedy for 2 months had no effect ) .

HELP! my staffy’s keep escaping

Dog run, safest option if they are that intent on getting out. -
yes i hope money has been discussed before you go ahead and then they hand you another bill!
-
yep , exactly , means they get more dogs producing puppies , pay no keep for them and hopefully the families then buy them when they are done with them so off their hands. It’s a good money making scheme made to look like they care about the dogs when $ is all they care about .
-
It can work , the older dog will teach boundaries and the pup will copy the older dog , so in a way it’s good . As long as when the pup gets too much the older dog can go sleep without being pestered . Perhaps an older lab or Goldie might work from a breeder ?
-
that is a lot of litters in a short time frame , bred while it’s still a pup itself ! Money grabbers ! I would also be concerned with health issues . These cross’s are a mixed bag , some are skittish hyper nuts others are scared of their own shadow . I’d want a few guarantee’s on health and temp . Also if you decide to go puppy route make sure the older dog has a seperate area to get away .
-
If it’s where I think it is , yes they have a wait for appointments , but they also have spots for emergencies, so stand your ground and insist he be seen .
-
Get on the phone and insist you get an appointment now, also email the director of the practice and complain now.

What a load of rubbish , considering Frenchies fetch 5k and they are listed as popular , TM are the same price . Staffies are popular because they are dirt cheap and easy to get , not because they have good temps , most are as dodgy as .

"Designer" dogs rescued from Illegal Breeder in Vic
juice replied to Animal House's topic in In The News
Let’s hope the RSPCA don’t “help” or most will die . Perhaps the state should not still keep approving new puppy farms too ! -
I would say you probably need the help of a proper trainer , not one from a vet . I put my hand in my Bull Terriers mouth to get stuff out as she is a dustbin , you need to feel comfortable doing it . Food sounds like a issue , that’s a lot of poop in a day ! Has breeder offered any backup ? Go in the rottie thread too and ask for help , some darn good breeders on there .

Dogs are not allowed on the furniture , Barbie thinks otherwise .

Looks boxer to me

I’m not really sure what the point is of asking for a reference ? You could get owners who liked the breeder but have a dog that hasn’t yet developed any problems but might down the track . It’s like recommending a hairdresser , everyone has a different opinion . What you really need is to find out what the breed can suffer from , what tests should be done and check the breeder does them . Bedside manner means nothing if the dogs are unhealthy .

She comes from the same breeder as Zelda , his dogs are lovely and I had been waiting for another from him . She is still on trial and he contacts me every week . I know kennel life is not ideal , but it happens .
-
Yes all men. She has been a kennel dog for 7 years after getting spooked in ring .
-
Was she bought to show ? How do you know she is good enough ?
-
I think you are missing the point .
-
They get on great , not left alone yet . She does have a lot of issues we are working on , terrified of the outside world and men , which is hard when you have a teenage boy in the house she is petrified of . But she is a sweat heart so going to keep trying .
