Glad you had a fantastic weekend TCM ! The weather was amazing !

I feel so very lucky to have this gorgeous area right on my front doorstep as I'm sure you are too ! Say Hi sometime ! I'll be the one carrying the little puppy for the next few weeks :)

Bagnall Beach on Government Rd Nelson Bay is a lovely friendly off leash area, I'm there every day :) Also Birubi Beach at Anna Bay is great They are the only two I know of, I'm sure you could find a nice quiet spot at either this time of year Enjoy your weekend

Looking for some toilet training advice ! We have had our 14 wk old cocker spaniel pup for just over 2wks now & toilet training has been coming along well She was at the point where we could leave the door open & she'd take herself out, having only an occasional accident In the last day or so she seems to have gone backwards, peeing in her crate & just squatting on the rug I know she's still only young but any ideas would be much appreciated Thanks

Our house overlooks the playground & beach access area of Bagnalls beach. So many dogs running & playing offleash right beside one of the busiest roads in Nelson Bay while owners are completely oblivious to their dogs whereabouts

Bagnall Beach in Nelson Bay is a stunning off lead area for dogs

Haha there must be something in the water here, my two go nuts after their time at the beach too !

My boy Floyd gets Floydalicious at home but a much more manly Dude in public & Indy gets Indylou or Chicky Growing up a friend had 2 dogs called Tiddles & Mr. Pee Good luck with the names

Same thing happened at around the same age to our Cavalier puppy We were advised to go grain free & with a change to Canidae Grain Free saw an immediate improvement !

So if some puppies are only given 2 vaccinations can I walk my puppy now if he's had two & is over 12 wks ? She is 13 wks & booked in for her 3rd mid month

Thanks for all the helpful advice ! 1 week in & we've managed to eliminate both the crate soiling & the alarm and now seem to be in a routine with only one wee walk during the night.

How big are they? Each of the squares are 40x40 cm

I've found the artificial grass squares from Bunnings are fantastic on our balcony, both dogs used them from day 1 They sell in packs of 6, plastic bases clip together & grass sections can be replaced if needed. Great wash & wear for balcony spaces

Thank you for the helpful & positive replies ! We had a successful night with no accidents YAY I added a small rolled towel to the crate just in case it was to big, left a dim light on & set the alarm for every 2hrs Dry bed - No accidents

The crate is only 45cm long x 30 wide Indy is a 10wk old Cavalier, I think any smaller & she wouldn't be comfortable I am going to try the alarms tonight

I know it's a big thing being away from mum, I thought I was doing all the right things with the crate all warm & cosy, a little blanket that smells of mum & the placed less than arms distance away from me where she can see, hear & smell me. Thank you tlc the alarm is a great idea, i will give it a go tonight, her crate is big enough for her to stand up, turn around & stretch out in, it's 45x30x35

We picked up our new puppy Indy yesterday !! She's 10 wks old & our first day was fantastic ! 10.30pm I popped her into her crate next to me in the bedroom & off to sleep we went 12.30am soft whimpers & we're up & out to go wee WELL DONE !!!! 3am soft whimpers & we're straight up to find she'd already weed in the crate 5.30 Same Again !!!! I'm a light sleeper & have no doubt I was up as soon as she made a sound Can anyone give me any advice

Hi, I'm reasonably new to the forums here & since we are eagerly awaiting the arrival of our new baby on Wednesday. I thought I'd just pop into this thread & say hello A pic of Indy received from the breeder

My 8mth old Cavalier puppy lays flat on his belly with his legs stretched out like this & when he sits his back legs are quite often splayed out to the sides.
