there was a funny side to todays road trip with Caesar, an amazing boy , he sat close when driving , and when we arrived he sashays in with a “hi every one isz back ” says hello to the office girls , untill a vet walks out, different uniform , omg he doesnt like that uniform , wee wimp he is , we had to sit in the waiting room , he climbs on my lap paws wrapped around my arm head on shoulder and im rocking him like a wee kid , vet came out ,” is he ok ? yep I say he just sooking , he gets a quick jab and truly one would think he had his foot caught in a trap yelped and cried , oh dear , then he was out like a light , vet says give him 10 minutes , no, dont think so he is out , now that never happens .
Ceasar is on meds twice daily , Bindy on meds, have got her ears under control again , burra has eye ointment and old girl on pain meds, like a rotation of meds here ,
any way I do wonder if there is a home out there for Caesar , a home with love, commitment, tolerance ,patience ,understanding dingo educated , understanding he has hip problems and will require on going care, perhaps surgery at a later time , daily meds, adoring him as he is special , a special kid with extra special needs.
Caesar and Arana
Caesar and Arana have been getting on so well . Something to be said re friends to the end now no longer friends . Push became shove shove became bite became very angry , took some time to calm caeser down he became extremely upset with arana. Guess that was short lived , however I walked him to the paddock today and noticed how badly he throws his left back leg, throws it across to the right and appears to flick the toes almost like a drag his left leg quivers and also appears unsteady , I suspect he has hip problems and have noted this in others bred by specific breeders , obviously will need to have this checked, kiah is another we rescued and he was placed in wildlife park , doing extremely well , but he was found to have serious hip disease noted as genetic . Point being our dingoes are being bred with major medical issues not found in wild dingoes .
confrontation with Miss Mirrhi
Have just had a small confrontation with Miss Mirrhi , big sigh , she was happily creating mischief and attempting to intimidate Arana, so I tell her “stop this nonsense”, and she growls at me , I then tell her ” ok enough how about you go in time out , not putting up with your attitude ” oh yeah I had a quiet rant and she persisted with her retaliation, I go under her chin and grab her collar , yep she spat the dummy actually screamed at me ” don’tz touch me dontz tell me nuffing , “oh girl now you are really pushing the boundaries , so I sit down and tell her I respect her and she needs to respect me , grumbling and bitching she went back to her crate literally slammed the door herself and now she is sooking , Arana of course is trotting back and forth laughing at her , think she too requires a talking to
Bindi ears are an on going issue ( attended vet couple of weeks ago surgery to fix her ears is intensive and costly removal of ear canal approx cost (14+thousand dollars )
Good Sunday morning , hot and muggy here , been up since 5 am , Django wanting his weetbix arana and Mirrhi wanting out , Jedda pacing ,old girl whining, haven’t been sure where to start , take Jedda out then Burra , then the girls then hit the pens another busy day .
Mirrhi is very bossy
Mirrhi is very bossy , constantly growling at me like she thinks she’s mum , tells me to not touch Arana ,yep a bit of jealousy, but so damn head strong I’m thinking she is very spoilt, but she was snarling and growling when 5 weeks old , no I won’t argue with her refuse to be brought into a confrontation, and refuse to dominate her , I tell her we are equal no bosses here , constantly calming her , I believe she gets frustrated as well , Arana is absolutely so different , she can have a hissy fit at Mirrhi but then she is up high where Mirrhi can’t get her , but never would she growl at her mum . Hmm perhaps the difference between wild born and domestic bred , way more confident no survival instincts in Mirrhi , she has something to say she says it,if in the wild she would need to learn to keep her attitude under wraps , but then I say what I think ,maybe we are to much alike .
