So it may be a part of her personality? She did fret when away from Sparkles, eg will sit whining outside laundry when Sparkles is being bathed, sits and won't move if not walked near Sparkles.

:D

I had never heard of them until about 2 years ago. Hubby and I were at a show I think in Narranderra and we met the owner/ breeder who had a black one and a white one. Sooo cute! I love fluff! :D

We were told that they run off and you would never get them back. Reading above I guess it's not always true.

Yeah, I worried about that after reading some breed reviews. However, after talking to breeders, it seems that's not true at all. Mine certainly never leaves my side.

It was the owner/ breeder/ show person who told us this!

Oh.

Well, maybe they're not big on training? Or maybe I should take back everything I said in my last comment and lines do matter.

Ha ha I would trust your experience owning one more than my experience of a 10 minute chat! :D

I have 2 dogs, Sparkles a 2.5 yr old maltese and Chilli, a 2 year old mini daschund. Chilli often licks Sparkles fur, it seems obsesive, her favourite spot is on Sparkles left side between her shoulder and hip. She has done this since a few days after I brought her home, at 9 weeks. At first I thought she was trying to get milk. Did she leave her mum too early? I keep Sparkles fur fairly short, otherwise it gets knots. I joke to family and friends that she has OCD, I was just wondering is it real? Thanks

That's funny. It gives me hope for my mini dash. :D

Love it because I have done something for me :D Hate it when the kids argue over who is taking which dog. More kids than dogs- maybe I should get more fosters Love the fresh air. Love finding new places when I move :D Love leaving housework because I'm out with the dogs

Bloody interfering neighbours, why do people think a dog needs to be fed becasue it looks at the or looks hungry!!!

Ha ha this made me laugh, my kids say that about our fish!

I found a cav NYE this year because I had gotten lost. I spent half an hour trying to get him from under my car, which wasn't easy as I was 6 months pregnant. The next day I spent with the yellow pages, trying to find any vets or rescue place that was open. I eventually found a place that his owner had contacted, and she picked him up. It turned out that they were on holidays here and she and her friends had hired a "dog proofed" holiday house, and gone to watch the fireworks, and left 3 dogs outside! All 3 got out! Fortunatly all 3 were found and returned safely the next day. Still amazed they didn't keep them in when there was fireworks

Congratulations!!! I love hearing about others who have bubbies and furries!

You might find a back pack for baby useful when s/he is too heavy for a sling.

Good luck!

The Newcastle paper on the weekend had Bordoodles- Border collie/ poodle. They are "cute, black and fluffy"

About a year ago in Wagga I saw an ad in a pet shop window for maltese cross mini daschund. I felt sad, I have a female of each of these. I could only think a cross of them would just be a long pile of ugly.
