[ QUOTE ] I'm already surprised by how few people use the double microdose for PG'ing into season. One large dose can be very unpleasant and painful for the mare... " [/ QUOTE ] Yep 3rd time I used the single she was in a muck sweat when she got home (15 min journey) she became aggressive and...

[ QUOTE ] What you say, makes sense on paper but perhaps not in reality. If you know much at all about wolves you would know that a wolf would rather run than attack. [/ QUOTE ] The Saarloos is not really a good example if you are going to try and argue against Hybrid Vigour...

Just like clarify that Hybridism has nothing to do with species, it is about gene concentration in breeds or types within a species. Hybrid Vigour (Heterosis), is a form of awakening that comes with the influx of new genes in a total out crossing between gene pools within that species. This...

Suspect it's all in the Name as they would need a licence to keep and breed wolves. It's really misleading when animals are named what they clearly are not. But if it is a wolf then how blo*dy irresponsible as it was probably sneaked in the country on false papers. Wolves should not be kept...

Yes those eyes are weird, they have a domed head as well, I don't know about you but I suspect chiuaua to bring the size down?

I recommend your friend watches the Dog Whisperer (Cesar MILAN) on Sky and buys the excellent book that he has written, I got mine from the UK. http://www.cesarmillaninc.com/ From what you are saying it is when your friend is around that they are kicking off, they are competing for her...

[ QUOTE ] Hello We are thinking of getting a dog and really like the idea of a husky. Thanks guys [/ QUOTE ] Sorry MissTipps hijacked the thread a bit, have we all put you off yet? This is quite a useful site to have a play around with http://www.selectsmart.com/DOG/ You answer...

Poor little things and all for money! Do you have puppy farm laws over there? Here the kennel club limit the number of registered litters per bitch and have an age limit beyond which the cannot be bred from. But of course if it's not a recognised breed or the puppies aren't registered there...

Oh and on the subject of what humans can do to dogs have a look at this http://www.toyhusky.com/ OMG WHY DO THEY DO THIS TO A WORKING BREED ???? You can just see the little old lady with a bit of a Stubbon streak wanting one of these cute cuddlys, then getting everyone in the park to help...

Oh gosh where would we be without those helpful judges! But seriously sibes have never been a heavy dog, they should be a greyhound in a woollen jumper! I have seen some in the show ring that are difficult to tell apart from the lighter malamutes. I know it will never happen but I always...

Yep thats a show type alright, probably occasionally comes back off lead too, but you wouldn't expect to see a racing strain dog in a local park, you'd have had a job to take a picture of it dragging the owner or legging it! As is the norm with a working breed, there are two very distinct...

Well Charles II was known as the Merrie Monarch, so Merrie might be good and he was married to Catherine! Apparently he had loads of illigit kids with his mistresses but none with his wife!!!

Mine love Bob Martin's beef jerky as a treat. It stinks but they love it.

No No No Echo above plus more! They are a very tough very intelligent working breed and unless you intend to take up racing they are difficult to tire out and so will go looking for things to kill and or destroy. A friend has them for racing and hers will pluck an unwitting bird out of mid...
