23.01.2022 RSPCA Wangaratta got a little more than they bargained for this month when a dog they thought they had in care turned out to be a dingo! The dingo was found on... a rural property, hungry and scared, hiding underneath a caravan. A local Rural City of Wangaratta ranger named James managed to capture him and bring him into the shelter, and after he made multiple visits to see the animal’s progress, the team named him ‘James De Dingo’ in his honour. Dingoes are wary by nature and very different from a domesticated dog, but he is slowly coming out of his shell and is now taking meat treats carefully from the hands of staff. He is on a grain-free diet as dingoes don’t have the gene that allows them to process starch. Once he leaves the care of RSPCA Victoria at the start of December, he will be going to specialist rescue group Sydney Dingo Rescue. This wonderful rescue group is currently building a three-acre enclosure for him to spend his days enjoying a carefree life, and we couldn’t be happier that James De Dingo has landed firmly on all four paws.

15.01.2022 WARNING - Toxic poisoning If any of you have dogs and have Yuccas tree’s , please remove the yuccas from your property or ensure your canine or pet can not get... near them. Yuccas are not only toxic but poisonous to canines. Every second day, I have been at the vets hoping to save our boy as well as his man hood. He is on the highest form of medication and scanning his testicles every second day. To make sure the blood flow is ok. The cells at this stage are good and with much luck, will make a full recovery. Yuccas create toxic poisonous shock, that creates an infection. This is deadly and can result in losing your canine, should this not treated or attended to straight away. This is the result of the infection, that spread throughout his whole body and also into the testicles that caused major swelling. For those that look at this and say lose the man hood. Once toxic shock kicks in from the plant, the infection and the swelling. If we were to operate on him, he would bleed out on the table and I would lose my boy. Many sites will only tell you about the affects of a canine eating the plant and how toxic it is to canines, cats and horses. Humans can have a allergic reaction to the plant. The articles do not tell you how toxic and how quick the poisoning travels through blood stream when being cut or deeply pricked by one. My boy is from a direct deep prick of the tree ,into the body - creates toxic poisoning straight into the blood stream. First signs of poisoning is - vomiting , the runs (loose stool), dehydration and lethargic followed by high temps. - Weakness, Drooling , Muscle tremors and seizures Here is some of the list of plants toxic to canines - Agapanthus (Roots) Aloe (Leaves) Angels Trumpet (All parts) Apricots (Stem, bark and seed kernels) Arum Lily (Spine and bulbs) Asparagus Fern (All parts) Avocado (Fruit, leaves, bark, seed) Azalea (All parts) Bird of Paradise (Fruit, seeds) Caladium (All parts) Cape Lilac (Berries) Clematis (All parts) Cotoneaster glaucophyllus (Fruit) Cycads (Seeds) Daffodils (All parts but especially bulbs) Daphne (Berries, bark, leaves) Dumb Cane Dieffenbachia (All parts) Foxgloves (Leaves, seeds, flowers) Frangipani (Sap) Gladioli (Bulbs) Hellebore (All parts) Hyacinth (Bulbs, leaves, flowers) Hydrangea (Leaves, stems) Ivy (All parts of most varieties) Jonquil (Bulbs) Kalanchoe (All parts) Lantana (All parts) Lily (All parts) Lily of the Valley (All parts) Lobelia (All parts) Macadamia (Nuts) Fruit Salad Plant Monstera (Unripe fruit) Morning Glory (Seeds) Nightshade (All parts) Oleander (All parts, including dead leaves) Onion (Bulbs) Ornamental chilli (Fruit) Philodendron (All parts) Poinsettia (Leaves, flowers) Rhododendron (All parts) Rhubarb (Leaves) Savin Juniper (All parts) Sweet Pea (Seeds, pods) Tomato Plants (Leaves) Tulip (Bulbs) Umbrella Plant (All parts) Wandering Jew (Leaves, stems, sap) Wisteria (Seeds, pods) Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow (All parts) also known as Brunfelsia pauciflora Yucca (All parts)

15.01.2022 Considering a random oodle x can fetch into double figures this was not a bad deal for a dog that is worth 4 staff on motor bikes.

14.01.2022 Staff Sgt. Casimer A. Nastal of Detroit, Mich., was a waist gunner on the Memphis Belle. Here he’s flying Virginia. On May 17th, 1943 the crew of the Memp...his Belle were one of the first to complete 25 missions without being shot down. As heroes congratulated by royalty, awarded Distinguished Flying Crosses, and immortalized on film they were rewarded by crisscrossing America selling war bonds with Stuka, their Scottish terrier mascot.

11.01.2022 Another snake avoidance session done and dusted. 13 dogs who will now be better educated in the ways of reptiles and that they are best avoided. Their behaviour when they hit scent now will also alert their handler to the presence of reptiles and give them all a chance of a safe exit from the area. A huge thank you to Alex Edwards from Refine your canine and Glenn James from Snake Safe. Also a big thank you to all of the participants and braving live snakes on hot days. Well done everybody.

02.01.2022 Well worth a read. Operant learning folks requires all 4 quadrants. Both reward and punishment shape behaviour and the appropriate use of either needs to be understood. Inappropraite use of any quadrant will lead to conflict and confusion. Bribing or ignoring poor behaviour is a dangerous path.

02.01.2022 Can those wanting to attend the puppy class at 8am this saturday in Bright or the adult class at 9.15 please confirm attendance. Places still limited so numbers required .
