Hi, I wondered if anyone uses the Pets Own pet milk and if so do how do you find it and does anyone have the ingredient and analysis list. Thanks Simon

I forgot to mention, if I have to change the diet, how can I make sure the diet is suitable for her best friend, who happens to be a guinea pig?

My rabbit has had a bad case of diarrhoea lately. Can anyone tell me what might be causing it? Thanks

Always bought my pets from the AWL.. They're passion for animals is tremendous and always noticed by the hard work they constantly put in.. Good work AWL!!

Have had dogs since i was a kid and now looking into purchasing a pair of border collies for my fiance and i.. The blue merle border collies have sparked my attention and if anyone knows more about these, please share your knowledge :)

Can anyone suggest any good qualified breeder in Qld?

I know border collies are bouncing 24/7 with energy and need lots of attention (which they'll get from us ), but what are there temperament? Are they loyal companions?

Thanks heaps guys

What kind of long haired is he? Does he have the long flowing hair or the wiry hair that a rex does? Either way, daily brushing may be required and cutting back the hair is probably the easiest way to help maintain it. I've had long haired piggies before and I often had to give them hair cuts if the hair became too difficult to manage.

Hope that helps!

Rabbits should be fed the types of food they are adapted to eating. In the wild, rabbits eat mostly grass. They may graze for up to 6-8 hours a day.

Providing grass or grass hay to pet rabbits is critical to maintain health. Eating grass/grass hay provides for long periods of chewing which is necessary to wear down their continuously growing teeth thereby helping to prevent dental disease. Rabbits are also intelligent animals and chewing on grass or grass hay helps to keep them occupied and prevent boredom.

The high fibre content of grass and grass hay is also crucial for normal gastrointestinal motility. Feeding the right diet is one of the most important factors in maintaining a healthy rabbit.

To ensure your rabbit has a healthy "balanced" diet, you should provide:

•A constant supply of good quality fresh grass or grass hay - e.g. Timothy, Oaten, Wheaten, Pasture, Paddock, Meadow or Ryegrass hays. Rabbits should not be fed Lucerne (alfalfa) or Clover hays as they are too high in protein and calcium.

•Plenty of fresh leafy greens & vegetables. As a guide, feed around two packed cups of leafy greens per kg body weight per day. Some examples are: Vegies: broccoli, cabbage, celery, carrot/carrot tops, brussels sprouts, spinach leaves, bok choy; other Asian greens and dark leafed lettuce varieties; Herbs: parsley, dandelion, coriander, basil, dill, and mint

•Treats may be offered in small quantities (1-2 tablespoons per rabbit per day). Some examples are: most fruits, root vegetables (carrot, sweet potato) and capsicum
•High quality commercial rabbit pellets may be offered in small quantities only, but these should not form the main part of the diet

•Providing other objects to chew on is also a good idea, try offering items such as wooden chew blocks or old telephone books
•You should aim to keep feeds and feeding habits consistent. Any changes to the diet must be made gradually (over a 2-3 week period) to minimise digestive upsets

•Always have fresh clean water available.

•Do not feed the following: cereals, grains, nuts, seeds, corn, beans, peas, breads, biscuits, sweets, sugar, breakfast cereals, chocolate or any garden plants that are toxic to rabbits.

All I know is that they are a really big dog... But as all animals, they all have their own differences, and I like them in every way.

My Guinea Pig, Nibbler, seems to have a problem of keeping himself 'untangled'. His hair keeps wraping around his back legs, so he cant crawl. We cut it back, but it grows and grows and grows! I know he is a long-haired Guinea Pig, but does anyonme know how to stop him from getting tangled??

Thanks, I really wanted to know why that was happeneing! Thankyou!

OMG!! Tht is soooo funny! I feel sorry for the dog though... It wouldn't have known what happened!

Its probably licking the salt on your skin. My guinea pigs do that to me every now and then. Salt is an important mineral in their diet.

My rabbit does the stangest things. Why would a rabbit lick you to death like a dog?
If you think you have the answer, please tell me!!

You can start offering the puppies solid food now. Soak it in warm water to soften it. Serve it cold. Little amounts more often are better than all at once. By the time the puppies are around 6 or 7 weeks old they should be able to start eating the kibble without having to soak it. Make sure they are still getting nursed from the mother until 6 to 8 weeks old. Hope that helps! :D

When or at what age do we start to integrate solid food into their diet. The pups are 3 weeks old and always looking for food. Seem to be hungry and want more than mum can give.
