Congrats YP, an award well deserved! Loved the tearies from a completely stunned rescuer too :)

Yeh it was weird no Anne!

Britts Pet Taxi won best transport the whole room applauded I'm so glad she won this year. Fantastic, hardworking and kind lady she really deserved her win. YP Puppy Rescue took home the Master Rescue I'll remember more, they did speeches this year so there was a few teary thankyous. And the MC was a magician! LOL he was really good.

Thanks Panto they look fantastic and warm. :) Just catching up with the rest of the thread now (I've been out of town). Has anyone got any updates they need added to post #1?

LOL geography sorry

Excellent! If you could PM gillbear about moving some of her beds that would be great. They look quite hard wearing and warm. :) (edit, sorry guys I'm a bit behind. Spent hours looking for my lost phone yesterday )

Yay you guys are back! You did such a great job last year. You can PM me anytime but MUP and Nina are the ones to contact so far. :) If I can help let me know.

I don't know if it's already been said but I'd do a trip to the vet as well to make sure there hasn't been other factors you need to account for. 8yrs old and never bitten anyone before...just be careful in case you're seeing pain or a change in personality caused by something that needs addressing.

Wow, that's a nice looking coat! https://www.budgetpetproducts.com.au/new/index.php?categoryID=199&categoryName=Clothes%20&%20Fashion Perfect chance for anyone to replace last year's and donate the old ones.

That's fantastic thanks KC :)

:laugh: my fault. I've changed jumpers to coats. I'm just so used to little dog jumpers.

That's right! Sorry Gillbear I forgot. Have changed the 2nd title to see if they can get a lift to Harden Pound. Maybe one of the road transports is going that way.

Thanks Huntrox! I've heard they are a fantastic coat. Even if someone wants to replace their doggies coats with new ones and then send the pre-loved ones to the pound that would be fantastic.

Awesome thank you LG!

OK, Harden Pound needs more winter bedding. Blankets, towels etc. Avoid anything with stuffing so they don't get destroyed by the puppies :) They have plenty of coats ATM- PM MUP Coota and Gundagai could do with med/lrg coats - MUP Walgett needs medium to large dog coats. I'm sending the rest of my smalls out there but they do get lots of pups through who will use them all up. - PM Ninahartland Please PM me, or whoever's name is next to the post. Aussie Post has a parcel calculator and I've just discovered I can use a vaccuum bag to get up to the 5kg prepaid satchel limit, I could only squish 3kg into a 5kg bag before.

I sooo understand you wanting to save your dog and keep him with you but the video says it all. That's a dog in terrible pain. Like dogmad. I lost 6 dogs like dominoes over 2yrs and only one died at home hours from her final appointment. They don't know they are dying and don't just let go of life when they should. They hang on for you and fade in front of you, you have make a choice so they don't suffer. My thoughts are with you. I'm so sorry.

Might need to start carrying a loaded cat on our walks :) Quote of the Year.

Definitely start with Jill at JRT Rescue. She knows her breed and her dogs.

I recently had a senior doggie eye removal done due to glaucoma. It was so sad to see him go from happy to sad overnight but the removal brought back my happy old boy in a few days. eta: Not that you have to! I just wanted to reassure you it's ok for seniors and was a positive outcome. :)

That cat was so fast!!! I imagine he was watching the dog too. Go kitty!

:) Thanks Nina. Hope it helps the puppies.

^^this. "Donations" are paying for people's holidays and boozy lunches. It's not that hard to register and do the right thing if you really have nothing to hide.

They whelp around 63 days so a spay now would mean recognisable pups and some people struggle with that. But if he has no experience and nobody to hold his hand, and isn't financial enough to do vet checkups on mum, whelp, raise a healthy litter and worm/chip/desex and rehome them appropriately then a spay/abort is what should be done, no matter how squeamish it may make him. Why did he not do anything when she came in heat? Or start seeking help from the rescue 6wks ago?? She could have been desexed when those pups were just jellybeans and he wouldn't be complaining about it now. This story makes NO sense. So is this new group using their own clause or someone else's? If you get no resolution then you need to get the clause holder involved.

Awwww bubbas! So glad they are warm and cosy Thank you MUP :)
