  1. My Jack has always done it and she is 4. It is cute to start off with, but can tend to get annoying when they start sucking on your couch, doona, pillows etc. ;)
  2. Should have added.... Ours are watched when they are eating to make sure they take their time, they are very slow eaters so we are lucky. They are also kept inside to relax after their meal.
  3. We have always soaked our Weimaraner's dry. It is done when I get home from work and allowed to soak for a couple of hours. I know there are more and more people saying it doesn't make a difference but i'd rather be safe than sorry in these sorts of situations.
  4. Your girls are beautiful!! In regards to the playing and training, I have a dog and bitch (JRT) here from the same litter. When they play it sounds like they are killing each other! I do have to watch them carefully (they are 14 months) as it occasionally does turn a little too serious. As already advised, I too recommend you start seperating them from time to time especially when it comes to training. My two have bonded more to each other than to me (my fault completly) and this does make training very difficult. JRT's are smart little buggers and they are usually easy to train (with food :rolleyes: ), but at the moment I am having trouble getting them to even notice I am around when they are together. Best of luck with the training, its never too early to start. Don't wait until they are old enough to go to Puppy school, start now at home! One puppy at a time for 5 minutes is all they need. Maybee when they are old enough to go to puppy school you could just take one at a time, or, if you sister/mum can take one make sure you don't stay together all the time. Let them explore and meet other dogs on their own. ...Good luck!
  5. East/West feet in JRT's is quite common. The standard calls for straight but if your not showing I wouldn't worry. My Grandad has a JRT called Spotty, he was the most active little dog when he was younger, great hunter and companion yet he has the worst front you have ever seen. He is coming up 15yrs and it has never slowed him down. I don't believe a change of diet can help, but I have only been showing/breeding JRT's for 4 yrs so I may well be wrong. All that said, he is a beautiful dog and I wish you all the best with him!
