  1. We walk Maui offleash quite a lot (in an area where we can)... Every time I see another dog approaching I watch carefully. If they start to reign in their dog then I immediatly put Maui on leash also. Its just not worth it.. About an year ago I was playing with him in the park behind our house (no-one there at all) when a big dog came rushing towards us, leash dragging behind... Thankfully Maui was within arm distance (playing tug) and I was able to scoop him up. The dog was circling us and I really thought it was going to attack. Maui was growing and carrying on, wanting to protect me, but I wasnt letting go.. The dogs "owner" came aroudn the corner calling him and managed to get a hold of the dog, he even had the gall to say I was lucky I picked my dog up as his dog would have attacked him!!! I was just too shaken to say anything back to him... I later found out that this dog has attacked another dog before. I regret not following the idiot to see where he lived...
  2. I think Stan is the most loved and favourite dog on DOL :)
  3. What a lovely lovely boy... I am so sorry.. Someone pass a tissue??
  4. I think Im missing something, the link takes me to their facebook page, not any specific photo though.
  5. I couldnt vote... Maui starts off on his bed, then around 3-4am gets up on the bed at my feet :)
  6. I buy my comfortis from ebay, its the cheapest I have found!!
  7. Ive had two totally different experiences with children and my JRT,... At our local "Trash and Trasure" market: One boy, around 8 I would say, saw my dog, who was standing in front of me, in his harness, not payiong attention to anything. He came over and went to kick Maui, in front of my eyes. I managed to pull him out of the way and let out the loudest yell. (along the lines of "Oi, if you EVER go to kick my dog again, it will be your last time".... Meanwhile everyone else around me is crapping themselves (Im little, but have a powerful voice when needed) and the kid shrunk into his parents, who said nothing!!! ARGH! The little sod is so lucky he didnt connect with my dog, I would have smacked him myself. Totally opposite though, a little girl saw Maui and cooed with excitement. Her mother then said to her "if you want ot pat you have to ask the owner first, then you have to show the dog your hand so he can have a little sniff" She was just an adorable little girl, Maui loved the attention, that was one smart parent and one little lady who will grow up appreciating dogs.
  8. LOVING the photos!!! Cant resist adding my own :) this is my adorable boy at 9 weeks old And Maui at Christmas time :)
  9. Can I be rude and demand more tiny pony photos!!!!! ?? :)
  10. Easy solution to that though, couple of bricks in the bottom.
  11. Hypethetical here: I pay for absolutly everything to do with our dog, everything.. If we ever split up, I wouldnt take him. My husband and Maui are bonded closer then Maui and I.. They are best mates... I wouldnt split them up.. Not that it is ever going to happen.. But just because you pay for everything, doesnt mean they dont love the dog any less....
  12. When Maui doesnt get his way, or we are ignoring him and doing something else. He does a very dramatic flop, followed by the biggest and loudest sighs... He will lieterally stand near you, throw himself on his side, then sigh so loudly. We end up stopping whatever we are doing and cracking up!!!!
  13. I can add anythign else that hasnt already been said.. But Caz, my heart is breaking for you. I am so so very sorry..
  14. Id love to name my next dog Defa... :) Growing up had a cat called Gizmo :) Now, we have a Jack Russell called Maui :)
  15. My Gran used to own a beautiful Rotty. I loved going for visits to her place one a year (Vic to SA), Id spend just as much time with her dog, who would follow me everywhere. But I still had healthy respect for her!.. My old cat on the other hand, all the bites and scratches and attacked I got from her, were all very well deserved....
  16. I would say starting with absolutly nothing and everything associated with it would be at least $1M or more.....
  17. I found my Maui on Gumtree and couldnt be happier.
  18. I finally have one to add, please excuse the poor quality, was taken from my cruddy iphone...Its a tad blurry too... This was at my MIL's house, she has these size decorations everywhere, Maui loves to pose!!!
  19. I worm Maui with Milbemax once a month as directed by my vet.
  20. Not much this year I dont think.... Too many bills to pay! (Damn theives made it hard!) He will get a few scraps of ham as a treat.. :) (I get a leg of ham on the bone as a work christmas present, Maui LOVEs to eye it off)
  21. I how could I forget these... Maui loves POO.... he loves to roll in it, the smellier the better... urgh And mud!!!
  22. Maui loves playing with big balls too!! And playing at the beach.
  23. What about Maui?? Thats what our boy is called. He was a Hawaiian Demi-Dog sorry, Demi-God :)
  24. So it looks like it may be the change of food that did it.. After having rice/chicken last night he is back to his normal stupid crazy self today, solid poops and all.. So, I will re-introduce VAN to him slowly mixing with canned food (which is what he used to have each night).
