Ozstar Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Yay flight is booked for Friday, not long to go now. What has Bones been fed on? Leanne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdierikx Posted March 14, 2012 Author Share Posted March 14, 2012 He and his siblings have been eating Bonnie puppy dry mixed with Pedigree puppy tinned... you can substitute either Pedigree puppy dry or Supercoat puppy dry for the Bonnie if that's easier for you to get while you wean him onto whatever you prefer to feed. Bonnie only comes in 20kg bags. Only one more sleep!! Woohoo!!! T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huntrox Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Gosh these puppies are adorable. Have they all been adopted? ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdierikx Posted March 15, 2012 Author Share Posted March 15, 2012 There are still 5 of them available huntrox... William, Charlie, Joe, Petey, and Sasha. They are all turning out to be quite stunning little dogs, and have lovely temperaments to match. Not afraid of anything, and love playing with all people/dogs big and small. Bones had his stitch out and a bath today - all ready for his big day tomorrow... and we want pics when you get him home Ozstar Kennels... T.

tdierikx Posted March 15, 2012 Author Share Posted March 15, 2012 Today is the day!! You don't have to take pics today Leanne - tomorrow will be fine... *grin* Bones is such a happy little man - he loves everyone and everything, so you shouldn't have too many issues introducing him to your pack and everyone in the family getting lots of cuddles - he's an expert at cuddles! He hasn't met any cats yet, but I reckon your cat is probably used to dogs and will teach him his limits there... hehe! I can also see some zoomie sessions in the near future with Chaos and Lilly...

Ozstar Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 (edited) He is here :heart: OMG Bones is so small, his new collar is to big so he is wearing a hand me down and he could go swimming in his food bowl :laugh: , my SBT babies where that size at 5-6 weeks, sure there's not Chihuahuah in him Bones has had a feed, play, zoomy, met Chaos, Lilly and Bam the rabbit and is now busy exploring the house. He thinks Chaos's crate is great fun to jump in and out of (Chaos is outside). here is a few pics meeting Chaos the toy is way to big for him aww he has just curled up and gone to sleep in Chaos's crate Thank you so much Tracy Leanne Edited March 16, 2012 by CLBS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdierikx Posted March 16, 2012 Author Share Posted March 16, 2012 Aww... that's my little man! Doesn't look like his big day has had any detrimental effects... still cheeky as ever... lol! Love his cute collar, it suits him to a tee... His Mum was quite a small Bull Terrier (just under knee height on me and I'm 5'7"), and we have no real idea as to what his Dad looked like, but his Mum's owners said he looked like an "English" Staffy. I reckon he may end up somewhere in between Chaos and Lilly in size going from how he's been growing in the past few weeks. He and his siblings didn't have the best start remember... not that you'd know it now, they really have grown heaps in the past 2-4 weeks. If you want another bigger dog, I'm sure we could arrange for Willow or Fern to come to you... *grin*... they are going to be TALL! All legs and feet right now... T.

He cried a bit when I put him back into a crate for the drive home but soon settled. He is now asleep on the lounge. He sure does love his food and anything else he can find edible on the floor :laugh: Small is fine, not much room on the back seat with 3 dogs and 2 kids so the smaller he is the better Leanne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mita Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 (edited) The pics are glorious! I love him meeting Chaos. He's been raised to be so confident around new people & other dogs!!!! And he's still only a baby. The face- on pic makes him look so pretty. Edited March 16, 2012 by mita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tdierikx Posted March 16, 2012 Author Share Posted March 16, 2012 I didn't do all of the hard work with Bones and his siblings - lillypilly and the other volunteers at the rescue all helped with their upbringing and care. Young Chris especially worked hard on handling and socialisation with them when they were really little - he's so gentle and calm with the babies, and they all adore him. We actually found him asleep in their play yard once with all 8 pups snuggled into him... it was beautiful to see. The fact that their Mum was a really sweet tempered dog and allowed us all to help her with the babies was a great start - none of the babies were ever frightened of new experiences either. We are very happy with how nice they have all turned out. If anything, they may be too confident... *grin* Here's a tip for you - Bones LOVES honey - so when you have to give him a tablet (say for worming), use honey first, then stick the tablet in another dollop and shove it in, then give more honey - and you won't lose your fingers on those sharp teeth. He's also not too bad at getting his nails cut - once he stops wiggling around in your lap to get a comfy position - we used to do them of an evening when he was a bit tired after playing all day. He's a tough little bugger too - didn't even squeak when he was chipped. Might have been the fact that he was distracted with a nice treat though... roast chicken soothes all indignities... hehe! He does travel pretty well - my house is nearly an hour's drive from the rescue, so he was never going to be a big issue for you there... a few squeaks at the start, then settles just fine. His brother Mikey was a different story - he would scream the whole way home unless I positioned his crate to be able to see Bones in his... *sigh* T.
