  2. Background:

    I am currently studying at TAFE; Animal companion Services/studies.

    At the start of the year we all said what we want to do after the course, one female said "she wants to breed dogs" groan groan.

    I have become friendly with her and she wants to breed TAMASKAN'S. (Google it they aint here.)

    Half way through the year:

    Another student has a litter of pups Poodle x Chi x malt, The young one buys one a female. Breeder says she will mate the mother again later most likely. She has a family & Grt Gr kids so the dogs are raised in a home environment.

    Her background:

    Lives in an apartment in melb Docklands, grew up on a farm with a G Dane and a Labradoodle. Lives with her boyfriend. She does not work.Boyfriend is at Uni.

    She is frequently asking questions about dandruff, ear infections, her dog wont eat etc but doesn't take in any of the advise I give her. I don't claim to know everything about dogs, very far from it. She keeps telling us that some one on the street commented that her dog is nice and is she going to breed it? She says 50 poeple have asked her. Where will those 50 poeple be when she does have pups?

    Now:

    Her pup has just had her first season and the owner has asked me & her pups breeder all about seasons etc and still doesn't quite understand it.

    She wants to breed her puppy soon, I have no idea to what breed she intends to use or how she will find it.

    The other day she was talking to another student (who was doing a totally different subject) about how she wants to import a breeding pair of TAMASAKAN's, breed them & sell them. He asked about temperment and she said they are layed back and similiar to Siberians. (I have no idea about there temperment or anything about them) Basically she had no idea about it. He asked how much, she said with quarantine probably $8000.

    I highly doubt she has met a Tamaskan, she just turned 21yrs old.

    My question:

    How/what facts can I present to her that she should not BYB.

    That importing is far more expensive than she thinks.

    What health tests should her dog or the stud dog then pups should have?

    I doubt she has considered a C section may be required.

    Anything else or particular web sites that I can give her?

    Students there know I breed pure breds and I tell them only when we want one and we go 4 years some times without a litter.

    Another student is now disliking her for wanting to BYB.Or in her case Apartment breed.

    Thanks for your time.

  3. When you drive into KCC Park you will see a large sign stating where each group is, they never change.

    Even inside they are in the same position on the sign.

    The secretary office is at the end of the pavillion near the toilets behind a large glass window.

    Good luck at your speciality & at the All breeds show.

  4. Hi All,

    It was suggested to me that I could give our 5 month old puppy Vitamin B to help make him more relaxed

    around people.

    Can anyone reccommend what sort? tablets,liquid?

    How much should he have? He probably weighs 2-3kgs.

    How long should I give it to him?

    Have thought about Rescue remedy but would like to try this first.

    Thank you

    Congrats to Capansh on her win with Vali.

  6. Saw it last night too.

    Exactly what has cooking roo steaks & burning bread got to do with bonding with the dogs????

    I don't think I saw the dogs in that scene.

    Next week may be interesting: 2 people go to Canada to work with service dogs.

  7. Rebelsrequest, just sign in your details on the web site as a breeder.

    The flyer didn't mention anything on how to register or anything like that.

    Saggitarian, I sent you a PM but haven't had a reply. I am wanting to switch over to the Advance breeder bags too.

    How much are the 20kg bags please?

  8. Tazar, I beleive I walked past that shop @ HP today.

    Its also next to the new reject shop and has some new name.

    Full of people & kids taping on the glass windows.

    I too feel sorry for the dogs there. And isn't it illegal to have pets new food areas? I'm sure you may have to walk past a

    small cafe to get to the exit from the pet shop. Otherwise how else do they get the pets out??

    I saw that Pets hop a couple of months ago and convienantly the reject shop had some pet products for sale near the entrance.
