    Showing Straight Out Of Quarantine

    But Lida, if we had to test for every known disease that wasn't in the country, we'd go broke and never import / export! It is irrational to test for something that can be and would be treated in the normal process of a vet administering Ivermectin and Frontline/Advantix/Revolution or similar...

    Whippet Health Survey

    Oh, I don't know - Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Hugh Jackman. Think I'd be happy with some of the 1%. :D Seriously, you can't make someone use a different dog because the others have been used extensively. There's particular racing greyhound being used nearly EVERY DAY somewhere in the world...

    Showing Straight Out Of Quarantine

    Whilst I appreciate and understand the need for quarantine regulations, and that we are not just testing for rabies, it is still in many cases a beaurocracy and money making concern. Australian dogs walk off the plane in most countries, except the UK. I have exported to two different countries...

    Showing Straight Out Of Quarantine

    In NSW you cannot enter any dog, including new baby puppies, without a registration number. The entry would be refused. I believe this is an ANKC ruling and not state based. As many of our cataloguers now link to the ANKC database, it is increasingly difficult to enter a dog with any wrong...

    2009 Oz & Nz Show Results

    Sitting here, a little brain dead, after 6 days of showing. This Sydney week is a killer for any of us with multiple breeds. To give you some idea of my quiet life, I showed Salukis Thursday 9th and won Bitch CC RUBOB with Hilary's Dot and Res Dog with Nash. Can't tell you how many laps I...

    2009 Oz & Nz Show Results

    Not sure why everyone has the wrong sister as winner for minor bitch at the Sydney Champ Shows but it wasn't High Tea At Belrose. I'll check the official catalogue and post the results later (off to the Royal - again - today), but I think it was Ridgesetter Belrose Star who won Minor. Another...

    Copyright - Who Do You Think Owns The Rights To Photos

    What we believe may be applicable in a poll and what the law says are two different things. We have photographers on this list so I imagine they will give their professional advice. Having worked in the petfood industry for many years, I organised photography of dogs for packaging, the website...

    A Couple Of Questions

    Previously, all dogs being imported to the UK from Australia and NZ had to undergo quarantine. The pet passport is now in place but unless you comply, I still thought quarantine applied. It's nothing to do with rabies. I've just had a friend go through hoops trying to export frozen semen to...

    2009 Oz & Nz Show Results

    Just a quick note - I'm finishing off the show catalogue for Easter. If you haven't entered and want to, email me NOW with details. If you have entered and want confirmation that I have your entries, please email as I emailed a few people who normally enter and have been told they sent entries...

    No, No, No!!!!!

    Like everyone, I am saddened that this resource has been removed. I am currently typing up our show catalogue in which we print 3 generation pedigrees. A dog has been entered and the owner didn't send me his 3 generation pedigree so rather than wait for a response to an email, I thought I'd do...

    New Aussie Grand Champion

    I believe Charlie would also have got his Grandie last weekend but Lisa had a junior handler on him and he jumped up at the table too early and banged his stifle. As he was sore and not weight bearing, Lisa withdrew him, but he was moving fine on it in the afternoon. Not sure what is better -...

    New Aussie Grand Champion

    Congratulations to Lisa on achieving Electra's new title today. Whilst she has many nicknames, she is now officially known as: SBIS, BIS, AUSTRALIAN GRAND CHAMPION, AMERICAN CHAMPION, RIDGESETTER FLY THE FLAG, ET, SC Yes, she has recently turned 8 years of age, but she has whelped 4 healthy...

    Breed Standard Question.

    Hope this helps. "TUCK UP syn. cut-up The appearance produced by the abdomen's underline as it sweeps upwards into the flank and/or hindquarters region. In some breeds, eg Whippet and Greyhound, the tuck-up is relatively sudden, acute and exaggerated by exceptionally deep chest development...

    Slipped His Collar At Logan Airport Usa

    So glad he's found. I sent a whippet to Tasmania and he got loose when the new owners collected him, but was found several hours later. Also know of an RR that got out in Changi Airport Singapore en route to Italy and was found several days later but that was many years ago when crates weren't...

    Any Known Offspring?

    Think Wendy Slatyer has them and she is not on this list. Limey has gone over several of Wendye's bitches. There were a Baby, Minor Puppy and Junior Bitches at the last Whippet show. I'll let her know you're interested and maybe she'll join or send you some pics. Cheers

    Ming & Jack Puppies

    Pics are always difficult and don't give you the 'whole' picture. Mikey, Belle, George, Tinka went to their new homes. The general consensus for the girls is between Tearose (leading this week) and and Star but Mandy (who has her loyal followers). Mandy has the most outgoing, confident...
