Hi Dara After Schotzie's class (2nd of 2 ) I think the judge made her swing her head so she had an excuse to put up Trisha's bitch and it was the only one she made noise at & came over the top of her. June called her on it & she sai "she pulled her head away....Lots of absentees...Only 4 showed in Lacey's class & she looked great & went 4 out of 4). Only six shown in Sr Maturity dog ..Hate to get a placque that way....Oh Well, she won't get an entry from us any more...Glad you guys did well....

Flood the ear with solution, gently squirting into the ear, massage the ear gently for about 60 seconds, wipe the ear with a tissue. Flood the ear again on first treatment, wipe with a tissue, and leave alone without massaging. The dog will shake out the excess which can be wiped with a tissue. Note: The Gentian Violet stains fabrics! Frequency of Treatment: Treat 2 times per day for the first week to two weeks depending on the severity of the condition of the ears. Subsequently, treat 1 time per day for the next week to 10 days, then once per month or as needed. All of these ingredients should be available at a pharmacy. The Boric Acid Powder soothes the ear. The Gentian Violet Solution is an anti-infection agent. The solution appears to work well on any and all ear problems from mites to wax to canker. After the second or hird treatment you can clean out the ear with a Q-tip or cotton balls. Their success rate for this treatment is 95-99%. Those who do not succeed have usually not done the treatment long enough or have not been regular about the treatment. Dogs on the verge of ear canal surgery have been returned to normal with only the regular follow-up treatment to keep the ear healthy. If an infection seems to be remaining in the treated ear after the above course of treatment, you may also have some Pseudomonas bacteria in the site. This can be eradicated by using a gentle flush of raw apple cider vinegar and warm water. Use 2 Tablespoons vinegar to one cup of warm water, twice per week. It has been found that this treatment is effective for treating fungus type infections on the feet and elsewhere on the dog, for cuts on dogs or people. and for hot spots. This solution is for external use only. Do not get in the eyes. ------------------------------ Msg: #6 in digest From: Bokenkampgsd1@xxxxxxx Date: Sun, 10 Apr 2011 21:21:43 EDT Subject: Fwd: [TX_RPOA_E-News] DOUBLE WHAMMY IN TEXAS LEGISLATION ____________________________________ From: rpoa@xxxxxxxxx Reply-to: TX_RPOA_E-News-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To: TX_RPOA_E-NEWS@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: 4/10/2011 1:19:34 P.M. Central Daylight Time Subj: [TX_RPOA_E-News] DOUBLE WHAMMY IN TEXAS LEGISLATION! TX-RPOA E-News >From RPOA Texas Outreach and Responsible Pet Owners Alliance "Animal welfare, not animal 'rights' and, yes, there is a difference." Crossposting is encouraged. April 10, 2011 DOUBLE WHAMMY IN TEXAS! HB 1451 AND HB 2116: Both HSUS and Texas Humane Legislation Network (THLN) anti-breeding bills are on the move. It's time to circle the wagons and kill these bills. Bear in mind that many "animal rights" moles are reading our messages and doing their best to ensure their passage. RPOA welcomes Nicole Paquette, new subscriber and HSUS state representative for Texas, to our Texas RPOA E-News! Nicole can inform her boss Vegan HSUS President Wayne Pacelle that this is Texas, not California or Colorado. Don't Mess With Our Texas Pets! It is ironic that, in this 175th Anniversary Year of Texas Independence and the Fall of the Alamo, animal owners are having to fight another battle defending their constitutional right to own, care for, love, and breed dogs and cats responsibly. Texas animal owners are being criminalized with every new city animal ordinance or state law. Pet ownership is being regulated out of existence with pet limits, zoning regulations, high licensing fees and permits to own any animal (as in San Antonio). Cities now want to extend these laws to include county pet owners. The national expansion of government has spread to pet ownership in every state with the focus on animals confined to our property instead of addressing loose animals on the streets. Animal owners live in fear that animal control will come knocking on their doors and seize all their animals for any minor ordinance violation. Complaints can be made anonymously and amount to harassment by these very same extremists we see at the Capitol today. HSUS and Texas Humane Legislation Network are all shook up at the recent media revelation that an employee of Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation has been exposed as being a radical "animal rights" extremist with Austin's "Emancipet" group and a THLN supporter. So they've turned up the heat to get their bills passed before legislators and John Q. Public learn even more. The Committee Substitute for HB 1451 is on the Local & Consent Calendar and will probably pass on the Floor without debate. It can be pulled from the Consent Calendar by several representatives for Floor debate but to date we haven't been able to accomplish this. Maybe your House representative can help. Rep. Thompson's bill was defeated in the Senate last session and we only need 12 senators on our side to defeat it again this time. Just to backup Rep. Thompson's bill, another more condensed version of an HSUS Anti-Breeder Bill "HB 2116" is pending in House County Affairs after a hearing was held April 7th. "Posting rules were suspended" on the same day of the Hearing -- meaning it was a secret "public" hearing without being posted. We're told by our lobbyist that a committee substitute is being prepared but is not available yet. Don't you love the "transparency" in Texas animal politics? Contact your own representative if this outrages you as much as it does RPOA! Has HSUS "bought" our state government? Coupled with Senator Van de Putte's bill mandating sterilization of every dog and cat in the state and multiple seizure bills, these two anti-breeder bills mean that there'll be very few well bred purebred dogs and cats in the future. Mixed breeds will be phased out eventually and we can look forward to imports from Mexico and Puerto Rico for our pets or black market sources. We're in the countdown with only 7 more weeks left until session adjournment. Stop today and contact your personal representative and senator who can be found at: _http://www.fyi.legis.state.tx.us/_ (http://www.fyi.legis.state.tx.us/) By phone, fax and email - all three! Faxes are best but personal phone calls are important also. Just copy and paste for a letter or email. It's so easy. Tell them: 1) You OPPOSE HB 1451 and HB 2116 which are NOT "Puppymill" Bills at all. If you own over 10 Intact Female Dogs or Cats and sell only one puppy/kitten, you're a "Puppy/Kitty" Mill. 2) Tell them you will not support any candidate for public office who sponsors or votes for any "animals rights" legislation. We are animal welfare. 3) Breeders are regulated just as everyone else with the state's Animal Cruelty Law, one of the strictest in the U.S. Raids and seizures of animals are carried out almost weekly. Check out the "Get Anything Passed and Come Back Later!" Flyer And the "Pet Owners or Guardians, That Is The Question!" Flyer on our website: www.rpoatexasoutreach.org . Fax them to your elected officials. Stay tuned because we'll be launching more coordinated initiatives.
