  1. I'm not a breeder or have any entire animals, but reading this thread makes me wonder WHY the ordinary person wouldn't desex their animals?!? I know in this case the bitch is on breeders terms and I'm not talking about that... more so just your average Joe who refuses to desex their dogs. Really? who could be bothered with all that! My hats off to all the breeders out there! its an awful lot of work.
  2. I loved everything about my Dalmatian puppy, got him at 8 weeks, never had an accident inside, never chewed anything he wasn't supposed to.... no barking at night... just an absolute dream to have.
  3. Yay! thats great news... but how on earth are you going to sleep tonight?
  4. Can you even imagine the horror of discovering your pet like this? let alone it even happening in the first place I hope they find the mongrels responsible.

    Cold Puppy

    I have made little doggy jumpers out of a childs old jumper or track pants. just cut off the arm of the jumper ( or leg of the pants) and the wrist part of the sleeve with the cuff becomes the neck then just cut some holes in the bottom part to allow for front leg holes, then the rest of the arm covers the body. Cheap, effective and you can have a few on the go at once!
  6. I have a 13 year old Dally & a new baby Dally. I have had a few growls from the older dog towards the Pup when he is getting sick of puppy play. Its the way the pup learns correct doggy manners and how much is too much. I have found that although the old boy will growl when he has had enough, he won't hurt the baby... its enough for the warning growl to let the pup know to back off. Perhaps bring your two together under tight supervision and let them work it out together.
  7. Benji has had 2 of his vaccs, due for the 3rd on the 27th of December. I have taken him on lots of car rides, gotten out of the car at school a couple of times but his feet never touched the ground and he didn't see any other dogs. I have taken him on a play date to another dally owners home whose dogs are fully vacced, and to my MILs home who hasn't had a dog for a couple of years but the dog she had was always vacced. I think its about making smart informed choices, not hanging around high traffic areas, not allowing them to sniff random poo. just being careful.
  8. that sky is so pretty, I would love to see the Aurelius Borealis one day... I would imagine it to be similar.
  9. I've been reading along each day, and am so happy at the gains Bonnie has made She is a beautiful dog, and secretly.... I am hoping you keep her!
  10. Sounds like he is doing fantastically with his training.... OF YOU!!! LOL
  11. WOOHOO!!!!!! Yay for no more morning gauntlets!
  12. Benji is 10 weeks old, and keeps ducking under our MALE Dalmatian looking for a drink :/ I laugh when I see him doing it, but the old Dally isn't laughing!
  13. They have a great set up! heated water, and soap on tap... all the things you need ;) I see them at most of those carwash set ups with the auto carwashes & bays to hydrolically (?) wash your car.
  14. I bath Benji (a dalmatian) in the Laundry Trough... but he is only 10 weeks old! However I also have a full grown Dally, and have taken him to those dog baths they have at Car washes, he loved it and they have a blow dryer attached as well so you could dry Hank off before putting him back in the car.
  15. Cute little Frenchies :D I also love the upright ear! She will be looking like her big sister in no time! I am having such a ball with Benji, he is growing so.... so fast, will be a real Dalmatian in no time at all! I expected a much harder time than I am having, Toilet Training is pretty much worked out to the point that he will take himself outside to toilet then bring himself back in! Nothing is getting chewed or wrecked, he sticks to his own stuff.... sleeping from around 8pm til 7.30am. Just such a beautiful placid boy. Here he is today at 10.5 weeks
