  1. Great news. Yay! I have video of the sheltie pups feeding just need to wait till I get home and remove the conversation off the clip
  2. fingers crossed for an easy whelping. I am trying not to bug mum too much about Maddisons puppies, when I called last night she said you wouldnt even know there were puppies in the house, they are so quiet. She just keeps checking them and they are apparently fat slugs now. Cant wait until tomorrow to get over and see them.
  3. definately off for some sleep...question. When did they start calling gold yellow...when I bred labs they were gold or black.
  4. Well all good news. Maddison and her babies went for their check up. The vet was very pleased with Maddison's condition and the puppies. Off soon to have a cuddle and hopefully take some pics
  5. It's such a relief when something actually happens
  6. this is really exciting sharing the births of different breeds at the same time....its like a whole group of kinder kids growing up together.
  7. We ended up with 2 girls and 1 boy, all fat and contented. Mum is taking them all for a check up at 4.30. Maddison has been out to wee and eaten breakfast, now curled up asleep with her brood.
  8. Yay. It's 2 am on 2 april and so far we have three. Lost the first big boy born at 11.45 april 1. But have one of each. Just waiting to see if she is finished
  9. Congratulations Heidi Maddison has refused her dry food and sardines this morning....I got her to eat a chicken neck at lunch time but she went out into the garden and is digging holes everywhere and throwing up....well not actually getting anything up but going through the noise and motions of it. I dont think she will last until Thursday. She is very unsettled. she wanted me to sit inthe laundry with her and still wouldnt lay down just wanted to be under my hand so I could rub her back, side, tummy....whatever.
  10. Cairn won Aust Bred... I love the grounds now, what a huge difference to the last time I did this show.. I had a great day with friends, topped off with a bitch challenge, RUBOB and Inter in Group with my lovely Marlee, even though she is out of coat.
  11. I just checked, where it shows dog parking and the star. The star next to dog parking is where the rings are....to the right of the classic car display.
  12. I could not find anything suitable. Some people use a database and start each group at 100 for group 1, 200 for group 2 etc. I built my own Failing that if its a breed show use word.
  13. Bath the dog in Martha Gardners euclyptus wool wash (not the cheap knock off).... flea bomb everywhere, use more rather than less.
  14. I had a look at my numbers for Bunyip this morning and the map appears to say that parking is where the clydesdales usually are and it seems to me that the dog judging is on the main oval. Can someone else take a look at the map and see if they read it the same way please?
  15. Love the xray it is so obvious how many are there...good luck with the litter. I dont prog test, I dont xray and I dont ultrasound.....unless there appears to be a problem. I have been lucky and *touch wood* only ever had one ceasar which happened to be a shepherd who decided to whelp just before a kids birthday party and then had troubles....made for a very interesting day. I like things to be as natural as possible and apart from the obvious of not taking the bitches out around strange dogs during pregnancy I treat them exactly as I do when not in whelp. I split their meals in two at around 7 weeks (or when they are starting to struggle with eating a whole meal) and I add calcium and change to puppy dry. I cant believe after about 5 years I am having another litter and looking forward to it. I have been looking at Bree who is nearly six months and is a 3/4 sister to this litter and another litter just born who are very close to this breeding and I am really EXCITED. I will take pics of Maddy today and post them up we have 12 days to go
  16. Maddy looks lilke she is having 3 or 4. Definately rounder in belly and sookier. 16 days to go
  17. I have always just used lots of newspaper until they go outside
  18. the secretary is overseas....pm me your details and I will check
  19. Between the horse stalls. The arena and the secretary's ofgice
  20. I spoke to the show manager today and he assured me the dogs are where they have always been....
