Apologies for opening an old topic, I seem to remember seeing somewhere a guide on Phenotyping and just s wondered if anyone could point me in the direction of it, or am I just hallucinating?

Thank you

claireyclaire

Thank you! Just to confirm do the results come back direct to the owner or through the TDR?

claireyclaire

Can you remind me how you go about testing your dog?

claireyclaire

If you feed the dogs individually or can separate them another thing to ty is scatter feeding, get rid of the bowl altogether and scatter the food on the floor. This slows down the eating and makes the process more hardwork for the dog.

claireyclaire

Both my previous male dogs never marked or ever cocked their legs, always squatted! Tala lifts one of her legs slightly when she wee's.

I paid deposits for both my tam girls and was very surprised that no deposit was required when purchasing my pedigree maremma sheepdog. I paid the full amount in cash the day I picked him up, the breeder said she wouldn't take any money until I was sure I wanted a pup from that litter and I had chos...

claireyclaire

I remember the litter being advertised they were described as wolfweiler pups

This dog is in a pound local to me and looking for a home https://fbcdn-sphotos-h-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/314156_532837593400364_554478406_n.jpg Swindon's Needy Dogs (SNDogs) she is a stray so currently we do not know anything about her. she is still in her 7 days - if not claimed will then b...

Wow, she is stunning x

claireyclaire

Can you remind me what data you would like?!

My vets produced a useful article explaining the pro's and cons of neutering, here is the link

Ah the joys of owning a white dog

claireyclaire

Lovely photo's!

claireyclaire

Not sure if this counts, I originally posted it a couple of years ago, but have not managed to film it since! My husband thought it would be very clever to try and teach Elska to howl! And even more cleverly he thought he would video it! He is making most of the noise at the start until she gets the...

claireyclaire

Both of mine are great with recall

claireyclaire

Frozen carrots are good, also freezing tinned sardines in a tray of water! Fishy ice-cubes

I also sometimes put a cold, damp towel on the kitchen floor, they seem to lie on it just enough to keep their tummies cool.

claireyclaire

Gorgeous x

claireyclaire

Already have done! No updated link and this is the one still showing on her FB page

claireyclaire

Not sure if it's just me, but I can't get into Jennie's website

claireyclaire

That's the best thing about Rally over serious obedience, you can use treats!

I have to agree Elska was great, quick and do it all day! However, Tala got bored by the third time

claireyclaire

I have done Rally with both my Tams, they both really enjoyed it! Although I have to admit that sometimes I found it hard to remember what all the actual signs meant!

claireyclaire

Elska is Heidi x Jackal too! Annette's Annu is out of Jodie x Jackal

That is why I wonder if I can assume that Elska would be clear too, although with some of her behaviour I do wonder!

claireyclaire

it is 150$ I have just done one and handled the paper work today.. Well, thats one down. Got my answere today, and no wolf content in Bow (Dame: Heidi@Blustag, Sire: Jackal@Blustag, same as Sølve). I no longer need my lawyer on speed dial. Phu... That's great news! How old is Bow? I don't know if s...

Elska will be 3 in October, although she has never been a particularly fussy eater, I have struggled with keeping weight on her. I had try just increasing her food but that just resulted in upsetting her tummy. I have overheard many hurtful comments about how thin she is in the past. I now feed her ...

claireyclaire

Thank you all for your input. At the same time, I don't want to see these comments dissolve into nastiness and a hate campaign / witch hunt aimed at any one particular individual - this is not the time or the place, but I will address it (and the solutions) in my upcoming list of proposals. We need...

claireyclaire

Happy birthday Lynn, hope you have had a lovely day x

claireyclaire

Sweet dreams special boy x RIP

claireyclaire

I would never have let my dogs go anywhere if there was a danger they could hurt themselves, this was a freak accident, but thought I would share it just to make others aware.

claireyclaire

Lol I know, he has his last show the day before his birthday!

claireyclaire

Congratulations

claireyclaire

Some of you may be aware that each year I take part in the Race for Life and for the past 3 years my girls have walked with me. As Elska is feeling under the weather (due to having a grass seed removed from her eye last night) I left the girls at home and took my little man as my companion today! He...

claireyclaire

Just a quick reminder to be very careful to check your dog over when running in long grass, firstly always best to check if any ticks have been picked up, but also please be aware how nasty grass seeds can be. Yesterday evening I had to take Elska to the vets to get a barbed grass seed removed from ...

claireyclaire

She is beautiful x

claireyclaire

I have 2 tams, they are 3.5 and 2.5 yrs old, they have both been to dog training from 11 weeks old. They both have excellent recall, it takes time, patience and consistency. If you put the work in you generally reap the rewards. I think it does help that they are very food orientated. I have two com...

claireyclaire

I was recently sent this, not sure if it works, but I would certainly try it. Tick Removal A nurse discovered a safe, easy way to remove ticks where they automatically withdraw themselves when you follow her simple instructions. Read this one as it could save you from some major problems. Spring is ...

claireyclaire

Hope you all had a great day, looking forward to seeing all the pics

claireyclaire

Does that mean that you have to vacate the facilities by 8am or everyone be completely off site by 8am? Better make sure that not too much drinking goes on the night before if so!

claireyclaire

The Maremma Sheepdog is a rare working breed originating in Central Italy. There, in the High Appenines and plains of the Abruzzi region, the Maremma has been bred for some two thousand years. His sole function during this time was to guard the flocks and property of the shepherd; first from wolves ...

claireyclaire

Congratulations to you both x

claireyclaire

We haven't qualified for Crufts, as I have only shown him in 3 open shows so far. However, we are at Birmingham, Southern Counties and Bath champ shows, so with a bit of luck we might qualify!

Here are some recent photo's of Monza, showing off his rosettes!

claireyclaire

Thank you, yes we have started showing him! He has been to 3 shows and has managed to win Best AVNSC Pastoral Puppy at all of them, he also got Reserve Best Dog at our breed show!! Next one is the Birmingham Champ Show!!

claireyclaire

Welcome to the forum, you should come along to our annual show in May. You would get to meet loads of tams then!

claireyclaire

RIP Thor x

claireyclaire

Wow, he is so big already! :shock: Nice! What do you think he would be weighing if he is all grown up? Your wolves are lucky, they have their own polar bear! :lol: :mrgreen: I had him weighed yesterday, he was 38.5kg. I think he will be about 45-50kg when he is fully grown! I do get some funny look...

claireyclaire

We have the 10th anniversary Tamaskan show being held in May, you would be able to meet loads of Tamaskan and plenty of owners who will be more than happy to talk for hours about the breed!

claireyclaire

Welcome to the forum, beware you may become addicted!

Ha! He is nearly 7.5 months old!

claireyclaire

Thought I would post a few updated pics of Monza and the girls playing in the snow we had last month!

In the last photo, I think he was trying to audition for the next Andrex advert!

claireyclaire

What a pretty girl, my Tala was nearly 2 before her first season and Elska nearly 1!

claireyclaire

Thank you everyone!
