  1. I was reading another thread about puppy socialisation where the author brought up attendance at a puppy pre-school as the first step in developing social skills in a puppy.

    I am however concerned about putting a pup at risk of infection when mixing with other pups that have had just their first vaccination.

    I also have a concern about the risk of a pup picking up an infection at a vet surgery.

    Any opinions, anyone?

  2. IMO it's a nonsense.

    I was speaking to a puppy owner on the weekend who paid $1500 for a limited register pup with the assurance if later he wanted to transfer to main register there would be no problem.

    That transfer only took place after he parted with another $500.

    There are plenty of examples out there like that where the breeders are not 'up front' with the buyers.

    There are no implied guarantees of show quality pups with Main Register registration, so what's the problem?

  3. What are the Ruthless ones like with salt water. I really like the look of them and am happy to pay for a top quality product, but my dogs spend a lot of time at the beach an in the water.

    Wouldnt want a fancy new leash or collar to go and fall apart from that.

    Leather leads & salt water [or any water for that matter] don't go well together

  4. Hi all

    We have recently purchased a Stafford pup which is our first. We live south of perth and were wondering if anyone can recommend a good trainer as we really want to do what we can to get things right

    I find this interesting. You've bought the pup & now you want someone to train the pup!

    What's wrong with you taking your pup to an obedience club? I admit that some are better than others, but it's the owners that need the training & not the pup.
