Breedia Dog Forum
Hi & welcome to Dogsey:) Firstly, well done for researching before getting your first dog and secondly, well done for considering rescues. I...
I definitely can - in the 'haughtiness' of her head, her tucked up tummy and her tail :)
These cross breeds won't be 'pure breeds' for many generations - if ever. There are loads of threads on Dogsey with people's feelings on this......
Hi there. I tried a vibrating collar on my old boy when he went deaf - it wasn't too successful for him - but I don't think his thick rough helped...
Don't know too much about them but there is a lady that comes to agility who breeds them (she also breeds/shows English setters so they evidently...
I think that's about right. One thing that I have noticed from helping clean out rescue kennels is that shorter haired dogs (e.g. labs, rottis,...
Hi there. Its pot luck with any poodle cross. Poodles themselves don't shed but when crossed with any other breed that does, you'll have no idea...
That's good news. But the other thing Sean (didn't realise how relatively young you were to start with) is to think who's dog this is going to be....
One other option, but I'm usually hesitant to recommend this for first time dog owners, is to consider two dogs so that they will have company when...
Getting an older dog can be better for a couple of reasons - firstly they are more likely to be already house trained and past the chewing stage and...
Hi there. I think if you do your research properly and find a good breeder who is interested in producing healthy dogs (rather than one who is...
I'd certainly be interested to see some photos of your boy to see how his tail compares to my girl's :) As you say, another example of people...
Well that sounds like one to cross off your list. As you say, if you keep looking I'm sure you will come across the right breeder. Good luck.
:lol: I like cutiepie :) Fingers crossed for you that the meeting goes well...let us know how you get on as soon as you get back (pleeease)
Great news:):):) I've only ever picked a pup once - then always adult rescues - how easy is it to tell their character/ temperament at that age?
oh my - gorgeous, I love his/her (?) markings. What type coat are you hoping for? Why only 'possible'? (if you don't mind me asking)
oooh, i can't help I'm afraid, all mine are rescues so no puppy pics.....but can I play guess the secret? Are you going to joing us collie owning...
:043: :043: :043: brilliant. Do they come in other colours?
Yes it is wishful thinking, but at least those choosing rescue are making an effort to make it a reality. To some extents, your argument does hold...
Most rescues that I'm aware of who take in litters will encourage (and often pay for) the mother to be spayed. No they can't force them, but I think...
