Welcome Richard from Carolyn & Sylas in South Australia :)

The scab was where the buckle was sitting and it is a nylon collar. I bought him a plastic clip one but if it is a nylon thing thats not going to help :( He had been wearing it for 5 days. Trial and error I guess. Thanx.

We have just put a collar on Sylas (11 weeks) as we took him to puppy training/socialization classes on Saturday. He hasn't taken to the collar at all (keeps scratching at it and walking goofy). I was cuddling him last night and found a scab on his neck where the buckle of the collar has been...

Sorry am new to forum didn't mean to offend. Have started my own thread.

I'm very new to BARF feeding, Sylas is now 11 Weeks. I have been tinkering with a few recipes of my own and would like some expert opinions on whether they are ok? The 1st is I make a homemade loaf. I use a kilo of raw ground chicken mince from reputable pet food shop, blitz some cooked...

Hi everyone, I'm new to this feeding caper myself, Sylas is now 11 weeks. I have been tinkering with a few recipes and would like some expert opinions on whether they are ok? The 1st is I make a home made loaf. I use a kilo of fresh chicken mince from reputable pet food shop, blitz some...

Hi Linda, YAY another Aussie!! Welcome to you, Abby and Bronson from Carolyn and Sylus in SA. You're going to be a busy girl.

I kept him on the chicken mince and vegies yesterday (Sunday) for breakfast and lunch and gave him chicken necks for his tea and by late last night he had firmed up again so I will keep an eye on him and if anything changes I will get him straight to the vet. Hopefully I was panicking. He got...

We are in our last month of summer in Australia, I live at the bottom of the country and we have reasonably mild summers and winters. Our backyard has plenty of shade and we have snuggly outside beds for our dogs. They are usually in and out anyway as I don't work fulltime. The crates sound...

This is my 1st day on this board and you were one of the 1st people to welcome me and I have already been able to see you and Cash, isn't technology amazing! The photos were great he's beautiful! I'm looking forward to seeing him grow.

Please excuse my ignorance but it seems that a lot of people on this board put their dogs in crates. What are these? Our dogs sleep in doggy beds on the floor in our bedroom and then are put outside in our backyard during the day. Our Sylas is 9 weeks old and when he is inside at night we...

Our white 9 week old baby boy Sylas has his name from the Albino Monk in the DaVinci Code.

Thanks for the lovely welcomes! Sylas is my 1st boxer. My husband inherited me, my daughter and my 2 staffys. The poor fella has had to wait 11 years to have his boxer! He had one when he was a teenager, his brother and niece have 3 between them so he is very excited to finally have his own...

We have had Sylas our 9 week old puppy for a week and a half and in that time he has only had 1-2 days where his stools have been semi firm. We had given him canned puppy food with dry food until I read on this site about food allergies so I started him on puppy mince with cooked potato and...
