Nope! I am not going to slap you. I will give you a BIG cyber-hug for making every effort to make sure Ernie has the best of life with you. Geeze, that trainer is way off. Dear me.

Thinking of you and Danny

It's rather an interesting treatment. If warranted I would certainly consider having any dog of mine given a course. The laser is called a K-laser and is 'cold'. It is supposed to improve the circulation for affected animals. Below article is a little old. That surgery may not be the only one in Sydney that offers laser. http://www.vetsandpets.com.au/blog/?p=48

Reckon!!!! BIG grin here :D

Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The photos are beautiful. Simply beautiful.

Kinda freaky for a vet to hand out advice like that. I would be seeking another one.

How exciting..... shall we be treated to photos too? There are a couple of places http://www.petpost.co.nz/?gclid=CKHuhpOD4sECFY8kvQodnkkA-w Has Free NZ Shipping so that's a plus. http://www.fourseasonspets.co.nz/ Located in Glen Innes Auckland & Takapuna with online as well. Brother living in NZ uses both of them frequently. Has done so for years. An OZ site has just started shipping to New Zealand as well. I will check my notes & tell you which one. :) Nowadays there are a couple of different Kongs that can have food stuffed in their insides. Even for Horrible Herbert (currently he's 28kilos) I got XL from the start. I got the original one. Make sure they purchase the Made In USA models, imo. Very exciting to have a new puppy

Try wall to wall Vizslas Colour collars rock then.

Swoons as usual.

They tend to go for anything

Who's a very stylish boy?

This is Ok. But to help you and the dog, do consider some training from a professional. Seeing you face to face with the dog, they can go over the scenario & adjust methods. Long term, you can have the fun of walking a dog that needs no reaction from you of pulling or tugging a lead.

Right ugly little get.... So not lovable, smoochieable.... Little honey Munchkins I am a tragic.

Yeah!!!!! Going on Saturday for sure then. Thank Dog it is salary time later this week.

The Corso is a slow maturing, heavy boned dog. I would never desex a growing mastiff breed at least until it finished growing if you're insistent on it. Frankly I'm not a fan of desexing full stop in the interest of long term development and animal health. If you cant stand seasons then get a male because at least during the growth period there is no hormonal bitch to deal with moping around the place... and males are usually a bit more laid back. Nekhbet's advice is spot on. Friends in Italy have 4 entire males, all of different ages. Their old show dog is The Lord. His nature is so lovely, he tolerates puppies playing with him.

His was the first Kennel I thought of seeing that the OP is based in NSW. When Frank(Of Itacor) first was bringing in Cane Corsos, he had mentoring from very experienced Neo owners. He's very open with regards his dogs and what they are or do, imo. I know of rescues he has helped too. Cane Corsos demand an Alpha owner, one they can respect. It would be suitable to have had experience with other dominant breeds too. They need firm consistent training AND their interest has to be held. In return, you get loyal & loving AND mischievous all in a large bundle. They can be lazy couch potatoes, then hoon around as frisky as a terrier. Family is their centre of their life. Left alone, they make GREAT damage. Like getting any dog, research is key. :)

Ollie ranks as such a special Heart Dog

Squuuuuuuuuuueeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Beautiful human kid & puppy

So very cute AND mischievous too I think. Enjoy

Friend living in Central West NSW dug a trench around their perimeter. Put lime down to prevent snakes. ( or so they thought). They still had a few. They are forever vigilant as they are a fair distance from Vet or hosptial.

Bluidy humans. Bar stewards.

Paws, feet, skin AND eyes can all have issues with grass seeds. Gabor had grass seeds in a paw & an eye two different times over one summer. Lawn was under control & well trimmed. Being a Vizsla his webbed foot made checking difficult. His eye only manifested when the discharge worsened. ( in the space of 4 hours). By the time we got to the Vet, the discharge was full of pus. Dratted seed was under his eye-lid.

Why? Mum & Dad buy a dog for the family. Neither parent had dogs growing up. Explain why they should know.

Squuuuuuuuuuuuueeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!! What a wonderful outcome. Welcome to your new wonderful life Be Bop!

Nothing better is there?
