I have one here like that now, I have an outside stud lined up as reserve, just incase nothing happens

anglesun I think it is due to the size of the dog, those who are larger will have the longer tails. You have more power behind a tail that is longer. I have minis and giant schnauzers. I have yet to have a sore leg from a wagging mini tail but have had bruises from Giants who were wagging tails at shows as I walked past at the wrong moment

If you are buying more then one, it could be worth emailing Sway and seeing what she will charge for multiple items

could the chiro make a trip to your vets to asses her?

have you smelled it? I've noticed a lot of car mats have a very strong rubber smell that can take a long time to go away.

When I imported, I offered a couple of referees to the owner of the dog, so they could be sure of the type of home he would have

If you like the fluff, what about a Portugese Water Dog or a Lagotto?

You can also try Plaque-Off which is a seaweed powder you just add to the food

It would be interesting to know how these odds go in particular breeds. After talking with a lot of breeders of Giant Schnauzers, it is apparently very common for this breed to have spey incontinence, it is certainly true of my 2 who were speyed as older dogs.

I just don't get how this would work! The bed is on top of the pig rails??

I would think any bed with that much give in it would make the pups roll to the centre and be more likely to over heat or get stepped on? How do pups cope with getting in and out of the box when a bit older?

The rule is even more unfair in the UK, if we import a cropped dog, it can not take part in any KC dog sport, not just showing. Docked dogs are allowed to compete at shows where the public aren't charged an entrance fee - a somewhat odd law of the land! It seems odd that we are encoraged to increase the breed gene pools with imported dogs and then they say but you can't compete if it happens to come from a country where cropping is common.

I don't trust them either, after having a dog get loose while wearing one, she managed to unsnap the fastener.

This maybe a sillly question, but if it is just for getting her into the car, can't you just boost her up with your hands?

brewers dried yeast is one of the notorius ingredients for causing skin problems for some dogs.

You could just use it on him gradually at the end of each daily grooming session, so he has a chance to get used to it before needing it to dry him off. Starting by letting him get used to the sound - it can help with some dogs, if they see if being used on another dog (or person!). Also helps to keep the nozzle further away at the start and on the lowest setting, so he gets used to the feel and noise of the air. If it is a heated drier, also make sure the air isn't to hot. Be matter of fact about the whole thing and stop when he is being good, even if you haven't done as much as you wanted.

This can be a classic sign of the start of certain eye problems - go to a specialist eye vet, your normal vet doesn't have the equipment to do a proper eye test and she will need drops in to open up the pupil fully so the vet can have a good look around inside the eye - something not usually done when your dog goes to a normal vet for a check up.

appeal on FB for help Queensland - Goodna Aea. The Cherokee Boarding kennels at Goodna with 70 dogs will go under water later today. They have places for the dogs but need people with dog trailers to get the dogs out. Anyone who can help, please phone Sharon on 0412 112 372 - VERY URGENT!!!

Breed standards have been amended already in those breeds. We don't award reserve best of breed, just dog and bitch ticket and their reserves. However, in the OP report, there was no mention of the ticket being removed from the dog, should it fail to be able to go into the group - so we could still have multi ticket winning dogs with health problems. Our champ shows get a couple of thousand dogs each day of the show - that would be a lot of dogs to have vet checked at the start of judging, we also run about 30 or so rings at the champ shows - that would take a lot of vets to get through any sort of meaningful check up. Show entries are already high enough, add on all those vet fees and it would kill off the show world. These test results are sent to the KC who have them available to view online, just go to their website and type in the correct registered name of a particular dog. Owners are supposed to report to the kennel club any operation that alters the natural conformation of the dog, trouble is, if the owner does that, they know the dog will be banned from being shown. Just how would you suggest these vet records are shown at each show??

Just because they are a similar age and entire doesn't mean there will be problems ahead if they are left to have a season! I have 2 litter sisters who have never been a problem and both still entire I have 2 younger girls who are a month apart in age and again get along just fine with each other and the rest of the entire girls here (and the speyed ones) Of all the entire bitches I have known over the years both from grooming and showing, I have only come across one who was rescued from a puppy farm, who had mammary cancer, so I would seriously be questioning where this '35%' comes from.

about 120g. Aren't there 2 sizes of them though? I thought you'd have had the other size on the danes?

http://www.whelpingsupplies.com.au/index.p...mp;productId=72 what about these ones? I was thinking about getting some of these for mini schnauzer litter (if the girl in question ever comes into season again!)

Oh what awful schnauzers, with lots of made up colours that don't exist and some that do but aren't recognised - and as for one cropped ear and one badly falling natural ear......... those who breeds aren;t on there, be glad!

Shut him out of the room with the sofa or put him in a crate when you are out or at nighttime

I've used the cat collars on previous litters (once the pups were large enough for them) I like that they are soft and washable. Sway, how soft is the fabric on the collars you sell? How small do they go?
