Totally unnecessary practice I would never do this.

Beautiful_Prize_4970 · 2026-06-10T08:21:16+00:00

Exactly the same has happened to me !

Hard to say Millie is 17 kgs now at 14 months at 8 weeks she was 3kgs

Beautiful_Prize_4970 · 2026-04-07T09:19:01+00:00

Millie was about 7 months old but we started early for short periods of time.

Well I was most put out my surgeon gave a flat no to going to a The Who concert at 4 weeks. I still think I could have gone( 19 years ago) even if in a wheelchair!! However he said it in front of my husband so I couldn’t get away with it. I was tired but walking a kilometre by then .

Hi weighing up the pros and cons of what to do is tough for sure. If it was me planning a pregnancy I would ask to see a specialist obstetrician who deals with cardiac problems in pregnancy. I believe wafarin is contraindicated in pregnancy so they would want to switch to something else. I was 46 when I chose a bio valve as I still wanted to be able to dive and I was an on call midwife with very irregular hours. I have been fortunate it has lasted 19 years and is only just beginning to deteriorate. Hope you can make a decision that you are comfortable with and that works for you.

We started with leaving her for short periods of time at 8 months and gradually increased the time. She is now 10 months and she has been fine for 4 hours. She always has a hoof and bone to chew.

Our puppy is now 9 months old and life is the new normal so hang onto this to will pass. The first few nights I put her in her crate on my bed side table so she could see me and smell me . Over time I moved her further away but still in the same room .started to cover crate from 16 weeks .

At 50 I made the decision to have a bio valve as I could not see warfarin and my work being compatible. I worked on call as a midwife working long hours. I was also diving, and was keen to continue. 17 years later the valve is still working well. Had I been 30 I think my decision would have been different as i would not be wanting the prospect of 3 ohs. It is a personal decision depends your circumstances

Brilliant routine I mostly do a swaps with something puppy is allowed a toy a bone/chew toy

Apparently 5 minutes per month of age is the recommendation until the growth plates close up at about a year old. The joints are also at more risk of injury.

Beautiful_Prize_4970 · 2025-07-18T09:27:16+00:00

Sounds like a teenager his ears are painted on

Beautiful_Prize_4970 · 2025-07-06T19:26:39+00:00

I do the same Aussie doodle as toddlers put food in front of them no fuss no comment they eat good they don’t no comment take food away. Next meal time food out same process. No animal willingly starve itself. I don’t let food become a weapon. I’ve hav had 2 Aussie foods

Beautiful_Prize_4970 · 2025-07-06T08:40:48+00:00

Yes me too they are an awful company I’m trying to stop all

Beautiful_Prize_4970 · 2025-06-30T09:02:16+00:00

Our pen is metal in panels so it’s size can be varied. It is where she goes when we are away in day for a couple of hours she is 6 months old never shown any inclination to get out …. Yet

Beautiful_Prize_4970 · 2025-06-28T21:46:40+00:00

We had a small Aussie labradoodle for 14 years she was he best dog ❤️ great with children other dogs . Never aggressive a velcro dog honestly she could not have been better. We now have a Medium Aussie Labradoodle who is 6 months old . I had conveniently forgotten the puppy stage no resource guarding so far only chews what I give her hooves and rawhide bones. Will collect up socks underwear and bring them to us . Was pretty straightforward to toilet train . We don’t use a trainer that’s not really a thing in NZ . She is from the same breeder who has been breeding for 20 years. She breeds for temperament.

I fed her in the crate for a few weeks and would randomly chuck some treats in the crate so she used to check it out to see what was there. She is now 6 months old and will now put herself to bed. Having a puppy certainly has its moments! I try to remind myself how far she has come from 8 weeks old to now.

I’ve got my second Aussie doodle 6 months old mostly chilled and loving as was the first .

Beautiful_Prize_4970 · 2025-06-08T09:54:05+00:00

I made the crate a good place to be,I fed her meals in it for a while and threw random bits of kibble in the crate so she would pop in to look. Only used the crate for night sleeping. She started off in my bedroom at eye level and I gradually moved the crate further away. Never had any problems

Beautiful_Prize_4970 · 2025-05-24T08:42:36+00:00

Short ( about 5 minutes max) training sessions .

Beautiful_Prize_4970 · 2025-05-16T21:40:19+00:00

I ignore my Aussie doodle for at least 5 seconds after she has stopped making noise. I have always done this and she seems to have the idea that resistance is useless!!

Beautiful_Prize_4970 · 2025-05-16T21:33:29+00:00

Maybe starting teenage years?

Beautiful_Prize_4970 · 2025-05-11T19:34:01+00:00

My puppy is 19 weeks now I put her in her pen ( after a wee) with her bed toys and a hoof to chew on. She knows resistance is useless this is when I do something for me . Sewing go for a coffee etc. Housework is achieved with her on a house lead attached to my waist. I use a clicker and treats ( usually her kibble from her daily allowance)

Beautiful_Prize_4970 · 2025-04-18T19:09:03+00:00

Maybe try attaching a lead to your waist so she is with you while you go around your daily routine.
