  1. I don't make that assumption, not all pet shop pups come from farms. But any pup kept in a display box in a retail environment being exposed to random stimulation from the public for hours at a time is being mistreated. End of story. Pet shops are very environment bad for any puppy.
  2. Stay around Atanquin.A good remedy for a bad day is a large block of chocolate.Report the cowardly PM.
  3. She is so beautifull.I like her colour,I had a bullterrier when i was a teenager,she was white with black eye patch.I have always liked darker colours and brindle.. .I like Harli and Indi,either would suit her.
  4. There are a number of native grasses,ground covers,and even herbs that can be used instead of lawn grass and can still be mown.They also need less water.Look in the library for a book called;The wild lawn handbook,or something similar.Google Lawn alternatives for more ideas.
  5. Try this and see what comes up. http://www.showdog.com/breeds/breedselector.aspx
  6. I agree with a Boxer or a Vizsla.I don't think you can have a greyhound off lead they can take off accross roads.In our area greyhounds must wear a muzzle when out walking.
  7. My inlaws had many dogs over the years and they never trained any of them.They said they didn't believe you had to train a dog and that they would learn themselves what was expected of them,oddly enough they never had any behavior problems with their dogs.
  8. What a good idea.Our council don't issue tags anymore with registration,so you are only relying on the microchip or putting your own tag on the collar and i found they often came off the collar anyway,so i will get one of these for my next dog.
  9. We can agree to disagree then showdog.I believe dogs are different to us.They are not human and not babies. Once a dog snaps at anyone then you do have a problem.My advise was directed to the OP's situation. If people want to have thier dogs sleep and eat with them then its thier business.But i am sure all the dog training books i have read can't all be rubbish.
  10. Yes ,I think Harley is good too, for a girl or boy.You would get used to it after a while.Hailey would be more femanine to add........You already have the ee sound for Roxy so maybe one that has the ahh sound so they don't sound too similar
  11. Pippa-Penny-Asha-Ginger-Ally-Brea
  12. Can you get on the Hill's website or email them and ask.
