Many thanks Janis and Pamela for posting these articles. These are also interesting, as some of the issues in this breed are the same as those currently being observed in whippets: "There is a strong possibility that inbreeding depression may be becoming a factor in Australian Shepherds...

Sorry to hear about the tyre problems. Hope Vinnie is OK Hannah, the Little Git sends his best wishes and says having banged hocks isn't nice. Unfortunately he knocked/cut his in the Puppy Cup, and has a rather nasty swelling. We had it x-rayed yesterday and it's not as serious as the vet...

Really sorry to hear this, hope she continues to improve :luck: :huggles:

Best of luck for the visit to the specialist, I hope they can sort out whatever is wrong and get him feeling better soon :luck: :huggles:

Congratulations to Kiplin, he's really found his form Trish :cheers: Huge well done to Jessie too, she's come on really well Tanya :thumbsup:

Will this still be going ahead following the KC outbreak?

Another gorgeous litter from the beautiful Callista, what a lovely range of rich colours :wub: Best of luck with them :luck:

What a good day for you Patricia, you must be chuffed. :cheers: Congratulations to Lampy all the other winners too. We did not have such a good day - Guto injury from last week hadn't really improved, and his hock swelled up again straight after his run, so that will be our last excursion...

Great pics as always - those are very strikingly-marked puppies :wub:

Really great pics, some really dramatic poses there (hope none of them ended in mishaps :luck: ) Think I spotted Bowan, Phoebe and Kiplin in there (was that Phoebe trying to climb over the dog in front by any chance (w00t) ) And the very handsome Oddy ? (LOVE the black ears ;) ) Hope...

Just to echo Tanya, what a great day in a superb setting which afforded some really challenging and enjoyable runs. Thanks to all the organisers and helpers, we look forward to returning on another great day's luring. Didn't have time to take many shots, just the main finals, and some of the...

Oooh what a LOT of mud, think we were better off with the snow. Great pics, looks like they all had a great time. :thumbsup:

Well, it had more ore less all disappeared by lunchtime. They probably wouldn't have enjoyed it quite so much if they'd known it they would have been racing other wise :- " :lol:

I would actually :lol: though the dogs always seem to enjoy themselves whatever the weather. Macy is looking very grown up now :wub: and Flo and Ellie are looking very well too. Hope to see you all soon, snow and rain permitting!

Those pics are absolutely heartbreaking, poor little pup - well done for rescuing her :thumbsup: Hopefully her condition is purely down to neglect and she will make a rapid recovery to full health with lots of tlc :luck:

Well done Phoebe :cheers: glad to hear she's finally over her problems :huggles: Congratulations to everyone else too, looks like you had cracking day in a magnificent location.

If autoimmune diseases in dogs were simply caused by vaccination, surely they would occur randomly across the breed as most whippets are vaccinated. They don't, there are very distinct hereditary patterns so there has to be an additional genetic component, even if vaccination may be one of the...
