Hi,
As far as I know you'll just need a health certificate from your vet stating
that the puppy is not sick and is too young for rabies vaccine.
I've never flown a puppy into Missouri though so you might check with the
airline you'll be using as they have all the regulations for the states they
fl
We know from the old Swiss saying that this was never a long-lived
breed, even in the "old days." That the working dogs of the farm were
sturdier and perhaps healthier is probably because there were no
"breeding standards" -farmers bred their dogs to other dogs probably
based more on working abili
Does anyone have knowledge of what, if any, health clearances are needed to
fly with an 8 week old puppy from one state (Utah) into another (Missouri)?

I thoroughly enjoyed "King of the Hill" last night.
Bobby did an amazing freestyle routine with a terrier mix and Hank did a
less spectacular, but equally delightful, program with the family hound,
"Ladybird."
The show ended with a formal freestyle competition.
VERY cute, entertaining, and quite
Does anyone have any info on how Jordan Dill's Hesse made out with his
surgery/treatment? He's been pretty silent for quite a while now. Thinking of

Hi Mike--
I am coming to your post from the perspective of someone who has struggled
with aggression issues with my male Berner, Micawber. I don't know if you've

it is like to live with a dog you love but cannot necessaril

Michele L is correct. And, bitches in season in the neighborhood can
exacerbate the problem.
Take a urine sample to the vet, and have him/her to a (aagggh) prostate

Mike,
I don't know what the agreement is with your breeder, but I'd contact her
first to give her the chance to get involved. I know if Bailey were a dog
that I had bred, I would want that opportunity, and it would be clearly
spelled out in my contract.

Good suggestion , Sherri ! And to carry it one step further , I'd give your
local fire department a call and ask their advice. They may be able to tell
you exactly what to look for and where to get it :-). And it helps if they
know you have animals. There are stickers available for your doors and

Boy did you hit it on the head this morning! Exactly when did the breed start going

As for the bad dreams, Tatty has nightmares fairly regularly. We just let
her sleep on unless she is shaking too in which case I reassure her gently
and stroke her. The length of nightmare seems to be dcreases as does the
frequency. and we got her at 9 weeks!
