I think Brendan was putting the dehydrated tripe on the site Saturday but I'll check ..

Thanks guys, we like it :-)

We Indeed sell fresh green tripe and we also now dehydrate our own green tripe treats :-)

Thanks Airedaler :-)

We are lucky to have a holiday program for the dogs :-) people register in our case breed specific. ( but have had other terrier breeds ) as it's with our rescue group .

We just advise the dates we need and people closest to you contact you and that's it . We know each other and all have an obsession lol of our breed and so far has worked out fabulous ..

More Ipswich but I think she strips her Airedales when she was showing and breeding

Barbara bishop is her name

Sigh , it was just an observation and if you were there you may have made the same one , seeing a situation and then reading it can be very different .,

I was really annoyed today . Picked my daughter up from her friends place and this blue female staffy runs out and a gorgeous pup behind her ..

The child's mum wasn't home just the older daughter . I commented on the pup and she said they breed them .. Yeah I can see that , the female was a senior and had been bred often to say the least :-( . She said they use a friends dog , this friend was the creator of the blue staffy .. ( oh I said ). They kept the female pup to take over from the mum , she wouldn't tell me how much they sold them for just that it varies.

I felt sorry for this pup ..

They may be 'money hungry' or they may not. Some assumptions being made?

Guessing she had saggy breasts? Some bitches go back into shape quickly and some don't. Some have one litter and have big boobs for life and others have several and spring back well. Do you know how many litters she has had? Or is the number an assumption?

'Senior'? Do you know how old she was? Is senior 5 years? 8 years? Older?

The 'creator' thing is yes a bit weird. You were talking to the daughter though. Not the dogs owner. She may have had a few things confused (perhaps he bred two dogs which carried the dilute gene to 'create' a litter with blues in it at some point). Whatever we personally think of blues, the fact that they have blues does not necessarily tell us they are 'money hungry'. That is an outside generalisation. They may possibly be 'backyard' breeders ( again an assumption) but even backyard breeders have many motivations for breeding, not all about money.

They kept a female pup they bred to continue their line. Many breeders do this. Heck I have done it. That is the point of breeding. To have something to go on with.

We don't know how much they sell them for (except it varies) so can not make any judgement based on that either.

So exactly how are they money hungry?

I've seen puppy farm pics of bitches obviously overbred so you can tell in an extreme situation , and some dogs noticeably show their age so you can get an idea they are older , but you are right I do not know her exact age .

It was just an observation , I felt bad for the bitch and the pup that's all ...

You cant tell by looking at a bitch how old she is or how many litters she has had.

The poor bitches teets were practically dragging on the ground , you don't need to be an expert to see a dog that has had their fare share if litters . She was definaty a senior but I'll get her age for you and as for being a reg breeder ha ok ...

Poor girl :-(

So how do you know the bitch was a senior and that she had been bred often?

Finally!

Also, they could be registered breeders, the "friend" with the male could be as well and this is all second hand from their daughter....

(ok, yeah, odds on it's yet another byb but geez, lets all jump in with angry faces without knowing anything else...)

Ok so when can I come and visit you ? I'd love a glass of wine :-)

This is how I approach it...

When the visitors arrive ensure the dog is away. Take this time to explain to your guests what you want them to do. Tell them they will get a glass of lemonade or wine (as appropriate!) for helping. Bring the dog out on leash. This is about giving the dog a choice so you do nothing but hold the end of the leash and anchor your hand at your waist. Use your core strength. Your visitor will approach the dog. The second the dog's front paws leave the ground your visitor is to turn their back and walk away. Rinse and repeat until the dog has 4 paws on the ground. Then the dog receives a pat but any jumping up sends the visitor away again. It is easier to demonstrate so I hope that makes sense :)

I want to get in our crates, my guys look so cosey in them :-)

Brr it is freezing here at night , I'd either have a nice cosey kennel with a flap or give in and have them inside ..

My guys are inside ,they keep my toes warm :-)

Double post

A group that I am with wishes to pass on their condolences to you and thank you for the warning of how deadly coffee graduals can be ..

Run free beautiful boy ..

So very Sorry for your loss :-(

Do you mind if I share your horrific story ? I hope your boy recovers from this <3 just horrifying
