Six is average for Standards, but I have had 2 litters of 12 before!

I have also done this very successfully with a bonded mother and daughter, though it was accidental (both does were mated by the same buck while I was on holiday) it worked out well for them and they helped feed each others litters. I know rabbits kept and allowed to breed in groups also do the...

Hachiko - A Dogs Story. I think that will be my favourite movie forever! I was literally bawling my eyes out. But I loved it, it did the Akita Inu proud and really gave a feel for how special they are as a breed.

I've had a doe over due by 4 days, she seemed tohold out until I moved her back into her old hutch (she'd been in the new one for a few months but I had a hunch she wasn't comfortable giving birth in it) and she had them that evening, but it could have been acoincidence. If you know she is...

My friend who runs a dog rescue saw Miya for sale and told me about her. I've always wanted a pure white Japanese Akita Inu as they are very rare, this is the 1st I have ever seen come up for sale in the UK! She was dirt cheap and looked in quite poor condition from the photos so I couldn't help...

Oh my gosh, that is any dog owners worst nightmare! I am SO glad she is okay!

I'm so sorry about Ginger, that is just about the worst thing that could happen! I'm keeping everything crossed that these babies will make it. Hope the surrogate doe works out, if not best of luck with hand rearing.

I think it's great that you are doing that for her, I would be so touched if I was in her shoes and it's so nice to feel that people are being supportive! So sorry to hear about your dog Fran. It made my eyes well up! I can't even bear to think about having to say goodbye to my dogs, it scares...

I have 3 in both ears, two lobes and one in the cartlidge just above, my lip and one below the belt which I've got up to a 10g. I did have my tongue pierced but it was pierced too close to the tip of my tongue and was never comfortable even after healing and changing it to a really small bar so...

I signed. It's over 1000 now. I hope it makes people pay attention! It's scary that a dog can be ordered to be killed just becauseit frightened someone, to someone who doesn't know dogs any excited large dog could be wrongly perceived as treatening, and of course, we all know if they were...

I've worked as a dog walker for a dog walking business, it's a great way to go because you are covered by their insurance and we had uniforms etc. I also dog walked for my own customers. The business charged £5 an hour, I personally charged from £5 to £9 depending on the dog but I also...

Great post Peg. So sorry to hear you've had complications with your Flemmies. I would just like to add that we all know that there are some people out therewho choose to breed despite good advice not too. It is so frustrating forthe Rabbitry Mods and anyone who wants to see bunny owners...

I'd also ask if they own their house or is it rented, if rented check they have permission from the landlord. Do they have any other dogs, or have they had other dogs? How long did they have them? I would also have a contract saying that if they find at any time they cannot keep the dog...

Aww, I feel your pain, I've got it too! I've been ill all winter, I'm not sure if it's been one thing after another or if I've just not got better. Time to stop being stubborn and go to the doctor for me! Hopefully we will all be immune to whatever nasty little thing it is!

Our tree is quite battered, the dogs have knocked it over a few times!

Double N wrote: Yes they are quite similar to the other Japanese breeds, very cat like, like you said. Jiro my male can be aloof with strangers, never ever aggressive, but sometimes a stranger will reach out to pet him and he will turn away or back off. He is rarely affectionate to a stranger...
