better u check probably... like me buy cheap but end up use more money... lucky now prince is quite healthy (even is slim tongue.gif) so you better do more research on retreiver rather than find the cheap 1.
Early ? where got 7am++ need wake up lor... tomolo need bring prince to YMCA (7am++ need wake up, somemore is sunday  doh.gif ) for see people training maybe will register for prince Agility training after October.

Dog food in pellet form . They have label attached to the packet and it tells how much you should feed your dog a day according to your dog's size . So , the doggie is at your home already ?

Yalor. I am also having a hassle on the drying part, so I prefer to bath him when it is hot and sunny - then easier to dry. Shushu chew his towel also - now all his towel berlubang lubang already  sweat.gif
Golden is a large breed, so they need lots of food. You have to prepare to buy about 10kg of kibbles (dry dog food) per month. Just follow the instruction on the kibbles packet on how much you need to feed.  smile.gif

Hi to all fellow GR owners, I in need of some advise here.

Sorry for being a lil lazy to go tru all the pages as i know the answer to my question should be in it.
I'll be getting a GR pup real soon, in a week time at most but i have not bought any of the stuff.

I would like some recommendations of the list below and where to get it if possible
All input is greatly appreciated

1) Food
2) Toy
3) Grooming Kit
4) Den
5) Shampoo and stuff
6) Treats
7)      Others

Thanks a million.

Hello Shadow, congrats on the new puppy .
Here's my take but I am not from KL but you can get these items in any petshop I guess .
Get the hollisitc dry dog food , they have various brand but I have tried Eagle Pack , it's good but my dog poop alot while on that .

2. Give your puppy a soft toy , he/she will like it , or get those ropes selling at commercial petshop .
3. Grooming kit , no idea ..
4. Play pen
5. -
6. sausages , carrot , apple .. do some research , doggie can not take certain food like grapes . NO CHOCOLATE .

Congrats on your new pup! happy.gif Male or female leh? Remember to take pics of your furkid and post it for us to see le brows.gif As for food, maybe you ask the breeder/owner what they have been feeding the pups. Then you gradually switch to whatever that you think is suitable.

Suddenly change diet will cause the pup to lau-sai. Last time Chelsea lau-sai so bad. laugh.gif

BTW, Prince pappy, Simchi and Hamster9 -- want to have another swimming trip or not? This saturday 29th. If enough kaki, we go again brows.gif Ask Ann if she want to join or not

Yesterday shushu had a big feast - he tore open the 15kg bag of dog food and help himself with it.  shakehead.gif
I think he was very happy he could "hunt" his own food - when we come home, the first thing he did was to lead us to the torn bag and play with the shredded packaging right in front of us  doh.gif 
I have to put him on a diet now.......

LOL , Won .. your Shushu is a champion . He finishes all the 15kg of dog food ?

Thanks for all the feedback especially the links, thanks.
Its going to be a she ( not too naughty ) and the name " Chi chi"  wub.gif

I have 2 choices, a female (7 week old ) thats without MKA for RM750 or a Female thats 7weeks old and with MKA for RM1300. I have shortlisted it to this two. Both are not Vaced yet as per both of the owner.

For the time being im cleaning up a room just for her, keeping all the unrelated stuff up high on the shelf and out of her reach.

Going to do shopping on this Sunday for all her stuff (Food, treats, den, toys, others) that sure will leave a big dent on my wallet  cry.gif and any volunteers to tag along for some advice ? Lunch and drinks on me.  icon_question.gif


Thanks

Hi guys, just came back visit my soon to be chi chi  wub.gif , she is super energetic today compare to the last time i see her, playing tug of war with me non stop and nimble my hand till my whole hand is full of her saliva  drool.gif  tongue.gif

One thing hor, the breeders say she has 5 siblings and her vet card might have been mixed up with the rest
EG, vet card microchip number might not be hers one, could be her sis or bro one.
The owner ask me to go for a scan of the microchip number and verified and if wrong, she will get the right one back for me. Does this sound a lil fishy to you guys ?  hmm.gif and where can i get a scan on the chip ?  rclxub.gif
Thanks a lot guys.
*
Nah , nothing fishy from my past experience , Fala's healthcard was mixed up with her siblings .. I got the wrong card but after a scan at my vet's , I called up the breeder and he noted ..and months later he sent me Fala's cert with the correct mircochip number biggrin.gif

according to afriend, everything about Haley looks like a retriever except for the legs and teeth of a rottweiler. then again, i've seen any retriever pup or rott pup before so i dunno whether true or not.

Haley stopped whinning ever since i let her sleep outside the cage, most of the time she'll be tied up just to keep her safe and we'll let her off the leash as soon as we wake up so she can do her businesses in the garden.

Gave her a bath last saturday afternoon and it was a hilarous affair. She ran with her tail between her legs back into the house after i applied shampoo on her and she was whinning all the way.. HAHA..

LOL scared of bathing but will get used to it eventually . In the meantime , you're toilet-training her ah ?
