thanks for all your help, he is on gluc/chond/MSM supplements and they do seem to help him he can stand upon his own now. he was never a very active pup any way,the vet suggested swimming, but told me to get himto da beach with out walkin:/ but i do walk him down (its jst 5mins) but since he has been on all the medication he seems agressive. its got sobad that he actually bit our staffie Zues on da nose which is a nasty wee bite. im afraid to let him off to swim on his own, and idont know if u know how cold da irish sea is!! but other then that i'll take all your advice and hopefully he will get even better. Thanks for everything!! any other peop with suggestions or peop who have gone tru it advice wud be greatly appreciated. thanks again xx

Bills & Other Legislative Acts / Re: Congo, the German Shepherd May Die b/c he Protected his Owner

This type of thing drives me mad. In Ireland this year they made a new law that the top 10 "dangerous dogs" cannot be kept in Dublin!!! This includes rotties, dob's, akita's, any type of mastiff or bully! Its a joke. I have a staffie and a bull terrier luckly I live 25 mins from da dublin border!! Its mental, theres no such thing as a bad dog, jst bad owners.

Thanks so much for the help, litle worried now but hey if he doesnt make a show dog it doesnt matter he's ma'baby!! I think the problem is,is that he has no undercoat, well very little, and his tail fur is only half of what my previous PMD was at his age. Ah sure what can ya do, he's a class guard dog and a big clown so we dont mind.
Just lettin people know, PMD are the bravest dogs about. Both my other dogs, a english bullterrier and a staffie bull terrier wud jump if they seen there shadow, PMDs are in my mind simply the best about!! Thanks again lads and ladys your all wee stars!!:D

Its hard to tell at the moment he is very much looking like a working dog. He is like the energiser bunny. Temperment is great, his character is fab, his coat is inbetween change, its hard to know how much to feed him because he seems to be always starving. He would eat a horse if it stood still long enough. but he does seem on top form. Beta as far as i know are an English company, they do horse feed and horse ware too. Its expensive but it was recommended by a friend. i duno. But if you know anyone who could help my with the rules of the ring regarding pmds it wud be great!!

I hope too, I was talking to my vet and she knows nothing about PMD's so im unsure if its ok to have them removed. I havnt had him weighed in a while but i can say he is heavy. Im bad at this!! im 5'6 and wen he jumps up he is nearly on my shoulders. I should really know his weight and height... Do u think his diet is ok the way it is?

Heya, Im wondering if anyone can help me. I have a 6mth old PMD. His name is Bear:) I had a Pmd, Max, but sadly he died on christmas day last year. Bear is causing me to worry! He seems somuch smaller and slighter then Max did at his age. Max was a large boy, he was gorgeous and had an amazing coat. He was even Irelands top PMD in his hayday!! But Bear is not from a show bloodline as Max was, Bears parents both are working farm dogs. I feed him Beta Giant puppy food, and he gets stress powder, eggs and cod liver oil in his diet. any suggestions on his diet?
Also Bear has doubledew claws on his front and hind legs, any idea how this would be seen in the show ring?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks!
