Just found this gorgeous guy whilst browsing through the local rescue websites, was not expecting a Tamaskan to pop up! Wish I could take him but it's not to be! Presumably from Liz's breeding if he's this far north.

Congrats Nino! I'm sure you did great!

skyedream

It's alright Katlin. I understand you were just trying to get your opinion across, like the rest of us.

I found this link to be quite good:-

Seems like titers aren't really all that useful.

Lycan and Xena are both females.

Well then whatever works for you :) sounds like you've got it figured out :) Actually, sounds like you've got it all figured out... :roll: If I PERSONALLY owned a facility I wouldn't allow anything but a distemper titer, rabies is just too much of a risk IMHO. But the titer shows the level of immun...

skyedream

She didn't. She wasn't impressed when she heard.

But they are lovely pups and I'm a sucker for a cute mutt!

skyedream

So how often do you vaccinate in Canada?

skyedream

The RSPCA website says that dogs should regularly be vaccinated against:- Canine parvovirus Canine distemper virus Leptospirosis Infectious canine hepatitis. Parvovirus vaccination probably lasts for life if good immunity is ever achieved. In most dogs, a single injection of a modified live parvovir...

Not that I know of...

It's a shame about the dew claws. My vet whipped one off Maya when she got spayed. I wonder if their vet ever recommended they have them removed?

skyedream

Just got a postcard from my vet today letting me know Maya's due her annual vaccinations. I'm switching her over to a RMB diet next week when her last bag of dog food is finished and it got me thinking about all of the unnecessary chemicals being pumped into my dogs body. I know that in the US vacci...

I think the top photos are him when he's a little older. I guess he grew out of the stripe down his nose. Might do a bit of facebook stalking and try to find photos of siblings and parents.

EDIT: Here are the sire and a brother.

skyedream

Yeah, I saw that too. It wasn't a very informative ad.

skyedream

I've been meaning to post this for a while. When I was taking Maya to hydrotherapy one of the girls there was in the process of getting a half rottie; quarter german shepherd; quarter tamaskan puppy. The tamaskan in the mix originally came from Liz at Alba and the owner then mated it with a rottweil...

skyedream

Lovely photo of Jack swimming. When Maya swam for the first time I was so proud of her. It took her a while to figure out she could swim and didn't have to wade all the time!

skyedream

A male? We may end up with siblings! I promise as soon as I can drive I'll be up to see you!

skyedream

He's just lovely and I'm still jealous! (Always will be!)

skyedream

I wanted to know if the moon would actually be blue! Am slightly disappointed now...

skyedream

How many people just Googled 'blue moon'?

skyedream

How random... It's like it's trying to bring up a serious topic and then it throws in random ads in the middle of it. Kinda like that game where you insert your own verbs/adjectives, etc!

skyedream

When we got Jazzy, we got her strictly as a pet dog, not a show/breeding dog. We had to sign a spay/neuter contract stating that we will spay her at the appropriate age. We got her spayed at around 6.5-7 months old, and she is perfectly fine now, just as bubbly and energetic as before. Most breeder...

skyedream

What's in doggy ice cream?

Maya eats whatever's in her Kong in 5 minutes or less. She's more interested in her Kong Wobbler and the kibble in that lasts about half an hour.

If only she would pace herself!

skyedream

I have a pet corrector spray that I use for Maya when she occasionally decides to lunge for a dog (all noise and snapping, no barking). It makes a loud hissing noise that distracts her and then I tell her 'nicely'. It's good for Maya because her problem is mostly leash reactivity so when she's naugh...

skyedream

I loved Streets of Rage! I played it a little while ago when my brother downloaded an emulator. Very nostalgic and very cool!

skyedream

Sega! I grew up being the Tails to my brother's Sonic! But now I'm more of an occasional RPGer. Final Fantasy games (8 and 10 are my favourites), Lost Odyssey, The Longest Journey and its sequel Dreamfall and Grim Fandango.

skyedream

She's hard work! Hopefully she'll settle again when she's more used to having Dylan around. Good luck!

skyedream

Jacinda do you have a Kong wobbler or something similar to make meal times more fun? Maybe Lexi would eat more if she had to work for it? I have a Nina Ottoson pyramid that I could send to you if you want. It's only got a small opening though so the kibble pieces have to be small.

skyedream

I just got an earful last night on the RMB yahoo group. Apparently it's not good to feed raw and kibble together at all (even if they are not in the same meal). So you should be feeding either one or the other (guess which one they recommend!) as dog's digestive systems are 'dumbed down' by eating k...

skyedream

In the paw to the face photo with his ears down it looks like he's thinking 'I'm probably gonna get in trouble but I'm gonna do it anyway!'

Just got Furminator shampoo all over me because apparently amazon has never heard of shrink wrap...

On the plus side I smell gorgeous!

skyedream

I love your zoo! I especially like that pretty rottie you have.

skyedream

Poor difficult little girl! I hope she continues to get better. I'm glad my girl eats like she'll never see food again!

skyedream

I don't think it's normal for forums to lock and archive threads like this. Granted I'm only a member of one other forum but it has 25,000 members and nowhere near the drama this forum has. People post all sorts of (unoffensive) rubbish on there that doesn't get deleted but that's the kind of forum ...

skyedream

Trust the welsh!

skyedream

People should think more before they type. Those kind of sarcastic remarks tend to pop up often on here from certain users and it's not necessary.

skyedream

Are you talking about the 'possible tam' thread? I did see a post on there that could have been phrased far more gently. I'm a bit confused since I haven't been on the forum for a few days. What's going on?

I've always thought some people on the forum are a bit harsh with Lucas. He means well.

skyedream

I wish I could go but I'm so low on funds right now. Maybe next year...

skyedream

The process of elimination is a wonderful thing!

skyedream

I want to say Jaeger...?

skyedream

So far she's been on Arden Grange, Orijen and now Fish4dogs. If I can't find a good deal on anything else then I'm going with Applaws. I'm using whichdogfood.co.uk to help me choose. She doesn't have any food allergies so I'm not overly worried about whether they're grain free or not, as long as the...

skyedream

Figured I would start this topic so we can alert each other to good discounts. I've been changing Maya's kibble everytime I buy a new bag so if anyone sees any special offers on large bags of high-end kibble then it would be great if you could post the link here. Anyway... if you 'like' medicanimal....

skyedream

Bizarre and ridiculous. Some people are just stupid!

skyedream

http://www.vetinfo.com/sexually-transmitted-disease-dogs.html Just Googled this quickly. Looks like canine herpesvirus is one to worry about as it's a common problem, minimal symptoms and it can kill pups in the womb. If either the stud or bitch owner was to insist on this test being done should the...

skyedream

The prepacked stuff is OK but the soft mince won't help keep their teeth clean (no matter what the BARF websites say). When I feed my dog raw meat I prefer to give her whole chicken or duck legs or whole trout. I tried to give her a turkey leg once but the bones were too big and she threw up big sha...

skyedream

I am so ridiculously happy for you! Well done for being so persistent. I'm glad it paid off!

skyedream

Does anybody know anything about testing for STDs? Apart from brucellosis? Should dogs and bitches be tested before mating when a stud dog that is not your own is used?

skyedream

Very sweet. Papillons are funny little dogs; huge characters!

skyedream

Oh wow! Good thing that eagle doesn't have a taste for dog!

skyedream

Oh such a happy face! What a lovely boy!

skyedream

If you do get a crate for your pup be careful to check for damage to it on a daily basis (especially if your pup is an escape artist!). Dogs can really injure themselves on damaged crates. I learned this the hard way when the fire brigade had to be called out to cut my pup from her crate when she sp...

skyedream

Oh wow! In that last picture he's like a little lion stalking the planes!

I so wish I could have had a pup from this litter!
