  1. What a beautiful boy Crash is. I have a good relationship with my current vet, but it takes time and work to find a good one that you trust.
  2. I have absolutely no advice, but I feel your pain. My 7 yr old Wire Foxy started midnight whinging, digging, biting the metal gates about a year or so ago. He is now on 5mg Promex every night and sleeps through. No idea what the cause of his strange behaviour was. Tried behaviourist to no good. Good luck with finding out whatever is causing your young 'un to have these moments.
  3. “I plan to send my liver somewhere in France, to protest foie gras (liver pate) ... I plan to have handbags made from my skin ... and an umbrella stand made from my seat.” — PETA President Ingrid Newkirk speaking to onMilwaukee.com, Feb 2005 With comments from Ingrid like that it makes me wonder how people can believe anything about PETA. Must be the brainless dead following them.
  4. Sid is adorable and Lola looks like she is really coming to life playing with him
  5. Could not answer on the poll, but I was a breeder 30+ years ago. I thoroughly enjoyed it (had a great mentor to get me going). I am not way past the thrill of breeding and showing, but still have the same breed of dog as a pet.
  6. Zedleu atracts males and females over 60 - they know what breed he is (Wire Haired Fox Terrier) and have not seen once in years Kidlets love him 'cos he is furry and he is very patient them. He is not a licker, but a kiddlet with bare toes gets a heap of attention
  7. Maria at Click go the Shears in North Perth 9444 0937 ‎ She used to groom my Mini poodle and does all breeds. Great woman.
  8. What a gorgeous girl. Happy Bithday Abbey
  9. Welcome, what beautiful dogs you have. I am sure you will love these forums.
  10. Happy Birthday to a special Charlie Boy.
  11. Lovely boy, and so lucky to have found you to give him lots of love ;)
  12. Brilliant, congrats on becoming a Schnuazer auntie :D
  13. My neighbour uses these people. The looked after her old gal for many years, did leg ops, and generally are very good. Applecross Veterinary Centre 9 Sleat Rd, Applecross, WA 6153 Perth Southern Suburbs p: (08) 9364 7666
  14. Zedley gets Pearly-Boy (he has lovely teeth :D ), Zipper, Zippy and Kirk = don't ask, I have no idea why I call him Kirk from time to time He is AKA Shirley My 3 yr old g/daughter got her dressing-gown belt, tied it around Zedley's neck and tied it to the table leg. Then she announced "Nana, look I have a new dog" (they have a Wei), so I asked her what she was going to call her new dog "Shirley" came the reply (she can say Zedley). She then walked into the wardrobe and siad that it was their new home. My son and I nearly choked with suppressed laughter
  15. If it is the lower part you mean, then it could be that he is dragging his feet, digging holes or pawing at fences???
  16. Nah, he knows he just has to bat those eyes at me and a bone is his
  17. Jed he is on Promax for a week, then the plan it to move him onto Endep, minimal dose Curlygirl, is the Promax is decreased. I've tried the DAP and that does not good at all We had another great night last night and are both perky and back to normal
  18. GR he does seem more calm and back to his laid back self. I can ony hope this is breaking some kind of wierd cycle.
  19. A second good night of zzzzzzing. We both slept until 8.50 (yesterday really wore me out). Under normal (pre his night time antics) it was not unusual for us both to lie around until 8.15. I am feelign much more human today.
  20. Thanks Mumof3. Been for a thorough check up as it also occured to me. GR we had a good night last night, we wil see how we go tonight. He'd better be careful, I've been for a hospital clinic appt today and nearly passed out in the foyer, ended up in ER and a wheelchair. No feeling super, so I hope he has a calm night.
  21. GR I gave him a 25mg tablet. In the middle of the night I am frustrated, desperate and drugged myself. Showed them ot his vet and she was not concerned. I really don't like drugging dogs, but it was way better than choking him into silence. He tries to headbut his way through the windows which are 40 years old and thin. He could kill himself, before I got a chance to do it for him.
  22. Thank you all for your very kind suggestions, they are very much appreciated. I gave him a pill called Sleep Right (an over the counter human thing). He slept the first night, but not after that :D so I am just hoping that last night was not a one off fluke.
  23. Left lights on. I cannot sleep with any light in the bedroom. It doesn't matter what room he is left in, even with a light - he just wants out of the rooms, out of the house and off the tiny bit of land we live on (the garden ). It he can ever escape he runs off and I live near a 4 lane highway whihc he crossed on boxing day night , having found he could get through the new gate. (new gates on order and he is not allowed in the front garden until they come). He cries in and out of the bedroom, he howls out the back and in the conservatory, but he does not want to come back into the house with me. ;)
