Congratulations Pip! That's wonderful news Now where are all the pics people were taking? :D

My 13 week old pup has what looks like a big pimple on her girl bits. She is otherwise totally fine but I am not sure whether I should make a trip to the vet or not.

Happy birthday Charlie

Aww so many gorgeous puppies ;) Welcome home little Ren! He is gorgeous SG - looking forward to meeting him at the next Kepala hopefully ;)

That is such a cute shot WA!

I have two young kids and a puppy and we have been having a few issues with jumping up and nipping too. I have found the crate and puppy pen invaluable, so that if I can't directly supervise, the kids can't be teaching our pup any bad behaviour! We have been doing lots of reinforcement of quiet calm behaviour, and making sure pup gets her rough play time with me or with our older dog so she isn't so hyped to play with the kids.

Wishing your dog a speedy recovery - this is my worst nightmare too as I live in a rural area, and with all the water around at the moment, I have seen quite a few red-bellies around

:cry:

Exactly!

She is very cute. I reckon there's a bit of coolie and whippet in there.

Hmm, we could always put them in a run! LOL we could always crate miss 1.5 with the puppies LOL Sounds very tempting If DP comes and gives me a hand they should be alright.

I heard those bunnings ones were good too - but start looking for them now, I couldn't get any for Ruby as they were out of stock, and they didn't know when more would arrive. I ended up getting a vebopet one.

That poor woman

Run free Lucky.

There is a good chance that I'll have Ms 11, but don't count on her for human company, unless it involves discussions on Pokemon and Nintendo DS games.....! No chance of that kind of discussion occurring with my littlies - they're only 3.5 and 1.5 lol. Do you know if the area is at all kiddie friendly? Mr 3 will happily play with a ball or cruise around on his bike but miss 1 has just entered the wandering phase.

Wow lots of good news! Can't wait to see pics of your little one atua.

Here's hoping the storm isn't as bad as expected.

;)

Is there anyone bringing human kids? Is there any play equipment or similar? Just wondering if i should bring the kidlets or not. So sorry to hear about your ex M&M ;) LC - that is great that Charlotte is on the mend!

My little SBT pup is nearly 12 weeks and has only really started to get into her kong in the past week. I think in the first few weeks she was home, she didn't have time to get bored really because she spent so much time sleeping. But now she is awake more, she has more time and energy to engage in toy destruction - I mean, playing lol. A pigs ear keeps her going for several hours - a silky pup would probably be chewing on one for a week though I got her interested in her kong by stuffing it with a mixture of soaked kibble and chicken mince then freezing it. I also rub a bit of vegemite on the inside of the kong before I stuff it. I saw a good idea on a blog last night - have a look at this: http://thedexterdiaries.blogspot.com/2010/...-leftovers.html

Well done PM and Oberon!! That's great news. I'm sorry to hear about Oberon's toe - I hope it heals up really quickly ETA: Ruby is entered for her first show at Bendigo on Feb 25th. ! I ran into her breeder at Bulla last week (and so didn't end up making it round to the Group 3 ring Gumnut - how did you and your breeders dog end up going by the way? ) and got some good tips on stacking, and she said I was doing really well with Ruby's leash training Another lady who also has a dog she got from Ruby's breeder, has offered to handle Ruby for me on the 25th, so I have the option to chicken out if I'm not feeling confident!

Aww Halo and Skoota are gorgeous! Glad to hear they are settling in well

;)

Oh! I only joined about a week ago and they haven't debited the amount from my credit card yet. I will call Ruby's breeder tomorrow and see if she can fax an entry through for me under her name.

As soon as I get my dogs vic rego number I am going to be entering this as my very first show. When can you enter - and what is the cut-off date for entries to be received? We will book into Central City caravan park too (or should I do that now - is it likely to be booked out?) Very excited and nervous!
