Nope this woman was in Fort McMurray, and I know for a fact she was crossing them, then last summer the SPCA here seized all her dogs, some of which she got back.  There were 2 purebreds, one male one female, Longhorn and Fiona (????) but there are still 6 of the IW/Sibs left sitting in our SPCA, 2 in SCARS, a couple of others as well scattered throughout the area.

I can tell you that these ones are IW crosses.

Dont know how it would work, but look at a few places in northern albera, there was some nut job woman breeding IW Siberian Huskies, there are quite a number of them.

IW have ong been a favorite breed of mine, we just a had a few in the shelter here because some nutjob was crossing them with Sibs and selling the "designer" offspring  >:(  As a result northern Alberta shelters and rescued are littered with the mixed off spring  :o

The pet shop here carries Nutrience(puke), Eagle Pack, Orijen for sure, and something I cant remember.  So I think I will stick with the eagle pack.

Well here are a couple of pics of the others in the house:

Ruffian:


Tonka:


Casper, he is also 12ish (was a stray my DH rescued about that many years ago):


So we feed all of them Orijen, this is the only food Casper has been able to eat other than the vets crap, because he will get crystals again. 

But I will likely keep him on the Eagle pack May see about EVO, since there is a lady here in town that sells it.

Treatment & Preventative Meds / Re: Neutering

This is what my thinking was, I have dealt with an un-neutered male before, my male shiba was a show dog, and only neutered at 2 due to seizers.  He is small and was still a huge PITA to have.  Gage has not started to even lift his leg yet, and I am good with that, Tonka went from that to marking in the house pretty quick.

Here are the Shiba BTW, the black and tan is Ruffian, she is 12 and the red is Tonka who is 10.

Treatment & Preventative Meds / Neutering
« on: April 11, 2008, 11:39:51 am »
I read in the thread about the pitbull, that someone recommended not neutering a giant breed until they are 1.5-2, so I would like to know why.  Gage is a rotty mastiff cross, and 80+ lbs at 6-7 months, and on the lean side, I was planning on getting him neutered next time we head south, but would like to know the reasons why we should wait please.

Hi I have recently adopted a Mastiff/Rottweiler pup, so I may need some help from time to time, and Krystal directed me here  ;D

So this is Gage, I was told he is 6-7 months, and what his mix is and that is about all, LOL.  So far he has been really good, house trained, kennel trained, pretty good on a leash, working on manners, he can sit, lay down and shake a paw. 

Worried about what to feed him, and what not mostly.  I also have 2 Shiba Inu who are 12 and 10 years old, they are both fed Orijin but have been told that this, even the large breed puppy has too much protein.  I got him some Eagle Pack Holistic Select for now anyone have any other suggestions?  I need to keep him on something corn free due to my females allergies.
