Oh my Ozito has an extension cable so the nose is well away and you just hold the flexible extension bit to do the nails

Yep I have this too. I have used cordless dremel & I prefer the ozito.

I use rotary tool for all the poodles nails keeps them nice & short.

I like that. It's a description like we need a word for just-a-dog people who don't understand, like Hogwarts and Harry Potter have "muggles" for people who don't understand about magic.

Doggles? Duggles? Dogless?

Yes we do need a word for them, dogless seems fitting :)

This has been going around on Facebook & I think words it all perfectly.

Wow how interesting! How are the other pups with her?

Love her name too!

We welcomed 8 beautiful babies into the world on the 10th :D

7 boys & 1 girl! Lucky I was hoping to keep a boy lol

Congratulations to the pups already born

My girl is huge & not coping very well with the heat but have been leaving her in a/c. We are in our final week now & she has slowed down a lot. She has been a very fussy eater from week 4 & I've been pulling my hair out as she is usually a vacuum but finally past week she has improved.

We're expecting a litter of standards on the 10th :D

Ultrasound could see 8 maybe 9 puppies! Very excited.

Robert Humphrey's in Jimboomba. I travel an hour to see him he is fantastic!

Our next dog will be another standard poodle hopefully one we have bred ouselves! Right now I don't see anything coming into our house except for poodles. I would like a Pomeranian one day :)

So glad Sumo is ok!

Bloat is my worst nightmare owning standard poodles very scary & it all happens so quickly. Lucky your OH was onto it! Might be a good time for me to drill it in to my OH again!

Hope Sumo recovers quickly.

Well done dotdashdot!

I've had to pull out of the ASTCV ET as my rotten girl has come into season Booo! Oh well, always next year

This is looking like my situation too. I'm still training, but I think she's coming in (her seasons have always been irregular, and last one was silent so I just dont know!)

Yep my girl came into season 2.5 months early. She is on her way out now so should be right to go by ET in 1.5 weeks. Just frustrating as I thought she would be right as she is normally so regular but having pyo stuffed up her cycle.

My girl isn't due until October earliest depending if she goes back to 6 months or continues 8 so don't think this will happen to us. Not that I'd mind seeing as I plan on mating her lol :p

So if I'm doing ET next Sunday is it ok for me to do the vet check during the week next week?

E+H we must be doing the same one? Laidely? Although I'm not doing it with my girl my OH is lol

Yeap that is the one! Will you be going along as well? I am starting to get nervous that he will get too excited and his HR will be high at the checks - silly dog has been brought up in a vet clinic and thinks vets are the best! :p

Or that he will decide sniffing and playing is more fun than the obedience test :) But still excited to see how it all goes!

Yes I will be going along as well at stupid o'clock lol. Have a dog show night before too I'm a bit worried about her riding in between other dogs but OH says she will be fine. Not sure what th surfaces are out there either so hope her pads are strong enough.

How close to the day do you get your initial vet check/certification done?

It's usually within a fortnight before the test I think, from memory.

Yep - here's the relevant bit from the rules

(1) A veterinary certificate, issued within fourteen (14) days immediately prior to the date of the test,

must be submitted, for each dog on the day. It shall cover such things as the general fitness,

temperature, standing heart rate, condition of the pads and muscle tone of the dog. (For bitches

the certificate is to state also that the bitch is not in whelp).

We have our ET next Sunday man is my girl fit :thumbsup:

Great thank you seems Cryogenes know what they're doing have heard mixed reviews on sires on ice so was thinking to steer clear of them

We are looking at importing semen from America or the UK which company do people recommend to go with? This is the first time we have ever done something like this so just wondering which company people generally use :)

My girl is bigger in the waist, being fussy with food, getting boobs & has slowed down a lot so we thought for sure she had pups. Very gutted. Not sure what to expect with the phantom she has become the biggest sook & doesn't like to leave my side.

U/S showed no puppies for us very disappointed plus my girl seems to be having a phantom

There is also Caboolture on a Thursday night either 7 or 7:30 start you can contact them on their FB page

Don't worry, there will be heaps... I'm going to borrow my dad's really good camera :)

Love pug pics they're so cute especially puppy pugs! If it weren't for the shedding I'd love one.

So this is something I have to look forward to lol

Booked in for U/S next week fingers crossed we see puppies
