I really appreciate the effort that goes into this sort of dancing, but I think the costumes fascinate me just as much:<br />

</tbody></table>When I got to the <a href="http://dogshomesoftas.com.au/adopt/dogs-for-adoption/">Dog's Home</a> this morning, <a href="http://athingforsewing.blogspot.com/2011/10/dog-of-week_24.html">Shandy</a> was being test driven by a couple, so let's hope they like her enough to take her home. And <a href="http://athingforsewing.blogspot.com/2011/10/dog-of-week.html">Tibby</a> was still there, plodding along on her tiny short legs. At 12 years old, I hope someone takes her home. She gets a bit puffed going up hills. And <a href="http://athingforsewing.blogspot.com/2011/09/nice-doggie.html">Deena</a> was still there, affectionate as ever and very happy to go for a walk. But the good news is that Montali, long term resident of the Home, who was transferred to Hobart, is being fostered out with a view to adoption. Let's hope they have good high fences because <a href="http://athingforsewing.blogspot.com/2011/05/dog-of-week.html">Montali</a> is a jumper. But after the years she's been at the home, I hope she gets adopted and it works out for her. I haven't blogged about Willy, the foxhound before, but he's found a new home. Willy would have to be the strongest dog ever. He knocked me onto my backside once, which was quite funny. Wolfie was a wolfhound cross who seemed to get more erratic every time I walked him, but after being transferred to Hobart, he's found a new home. Being locked up for a good part of the day wasn't doing him much good at all.Melindahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18423723918672036692noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5949630250230768895.post-92063283420335829682011-10-24T10:48:00.000+11:002011-10-24T10:48:27.430+11:00Dog of The Week<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDBls9vEPnNWuQPlKOyS6AF-VJkjFx7nQVyj0kkmcPt51JapPkTl6UzDQoHsNZVKA3e3KFAb_BEQYV5x-mI9dtPesTrVwYTYfg9qzdMBf1M87T3pmz-u7lrkNrCLNk3SNyHe17U_w2Ck6P/s1600/shandy1+yo+bitser+female.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" ilo-full-src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDBls9vEPnNWuQPlKOyS6AF-VJkjFx7nQVyj0kkmcPt51JapPkTl6UzDQoHsNZVKA3e3KFAb_BEQYV5x-mI9dtPesTrVwYTYfg9qzdMBf1M87T3pmz-u7lrkNrCLNk3SNyHe17U_w2Ck6P/s640/shandy1+yo+bitser+female.jpg" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDBls9vEPnNWuQPlKOyS6AF-VJkjFx7nQVyj0kkmcPt51JapPkTl6UzDQoHsNZVKA3e3KFAb_BEQYV5x-mI9dtPesTrVwYTYfg9qzdMBf1M87T3pmz-u7lrkNrCLNk3SNyHe17U_w2Ck6P/s640/shandy1+yo+bitser+female.jpg" width="433" /></a></div>Shandy the bitser is only a year old and is a cute little thing.

Next on the hit list should be pet shops and backyard breeders. All those dogs at shelters and homes must come from somewhere, and why should they be born, only to be euthanased at a young age because nobody wants them. As far as I know, as a humble volunteer, the Dog's Homes of Tasmania do not put down healthy dogs.

Dogs Kimmy and Peewee have been selected to become hearing aid dogs and have been whisked away to the Adelaide Hills for an intensive training program. The program will help teach them to recognise sounds and alert them to their deaf or hearing-impaired owner. Luiza Ziembicki, head trainer of Lions Hearing Dogs, said Kimmy and Peewee were making great progress with their training. "They have both passed the first stages of their training so far," she said. Ms Ziembicki said there were three stages of training the dogs had to pass to be able to be recognised as qualified hearing aid dogs. "We like to think they go through their learners, then their probationary licences before they can be pronounced fully qualified," Ms Ziembicki said. Training a hearing aid dog takes between six and eight months. "Generally they have a couple of months in our kennels," Ms Ziembicki said. "We assess them for any health problems and take them through different scenarios to help them adjust to different situations. "Hearing aid dogs have the same rights as guide dogs, which means they are allowed in public places like shops and on public transport. Ms Ziembicki said she liked sourcing dogs from the Dogs Home of Tasmania because they seemed to have the smaller breeds best suited to hearing aid dog training. "We are looking for dogs about beagle or cocker-spaniel-sized," Ms Ziembicki said. "You (Tasmania) seem to have more of the smaller breeds in your dogs' homes. "You just can't find them much here."</i></span></div><div class="gbl_pageoptions" id="article_options"><br />

There were 2 puppies together in an outside cage and I couldn't stay away from them they were so adorable, so they will be my dogs of the week. Jasmine and Violet are only 10 weeks old and they're very friendly and play well together. They look cute as buttons asleep on their bed curled up together and they pop their little heads up when you walk past. Jasmine has very nice colouring and Violet is an unusual grey colour.<br />

I found out that long term resident <a href="http://athingforsewing.blogspot.com/2011/05/dog-of-week.html">Montali</a> and <a href="http://athingforsewing.blogspot.com/search/label/Bluey">Bluey</a> have been transferred to the Hobart pound, so here's hoping the perfect owners finds them there. Roy found a new home on the mainland, so he was flown out. It really is nice to get good news before I leave.<br />

She's 12 and reminds me of a guinea pig with her round body and short legs. She's easy on a lead and loves a scratch round the ears. <br />

Just an average looking dog, a bit crazy on the lead, but she is lovely and affectionate and looks you in the eye when you pet her and she's very grateful for the attention. It really pays to look past what they look like. <a href="http://dogshomesoftas.com.au/adopt/dogs-for-adoption/"></a><br />

I know sometimes it's unavoidable things like a death (I've heard some pretty sad things over the years), and a lot are strays that were injured or never reclaimed. I've also heard a lot of happy endings. My own little dog came from the <a href="http://dogshomesoftas.com.au/adopt/dogs-for-adoption/">Home</a> as a puppy and as luck would have it, she was the sweetest tempered little thing, because back then I knew less than nothing about dogs and how to pick one. I chose one that I felt I could love. How lame is that? The RSPCA has a webpage with advice on how to pick a dog, and I'd like to add that buying a dog from the <a href="http://dogshomesoftas.com.au/adopt/dogs-for-adoption/">Home</a> means that you can spend as much time as you like out there playing with them, talking about them to the staff, and picking one that matches your family. And that's a lot easier to do if the dog is grown than it is with a pile of puppies. Oh, and I've learned that you never buy a puppy from a fair or market, a petshop or from a breeder who won't let you see where the puppy comes from.<br />

He needs some training on a lead (most of them do) but sit down with him and he loves a cuddle and scratch. When a dog puts his head on my lap and looks up at me, I'm won over, easy as that.<br />

They were everywhere, and they were ALL barking. The Home is letting them go for half the cost because they are so overcrowded and they have to reduce numbers. Please tell everyone you know that $125 will get them a dog that is desexed, vetted, wormed, chipped etc from the Burnie or Devonport Dog's Home, and there is every size and colour to pick from. Today I saw a lucky family leave with a gorgeous long haired border collie and there were 2 or 3 more there to pick from. After knowing my gentle Reginald, who was a collie x, I'll be a collie fan forever I think. He was just a perfectly beautiful gentle boy and I'll never forget him.<br />
<br />
My dog of the week will be Rose, just because she was so well behaved and easy on the lead:<br />

My foster dog Reginald has been living in Hobart with his wonderful new mum Sandra and was recently diagnosed with a collapsed trachea. The damage was down low and had caused him a lot of distress in the past, but yesterday morning he got really bad and he had to be helped on his way. I can't tell you how much I loved him and his big eyes. He was a truly beautiful natured dog, and I'm trying really hard to be positive. <br />

Winter was my best sewing time in days past, but I struggle for inspiration now. A bit of knitting is usually all I can manage. The <a href="http://dogshomesoftas.com.au/adopt/dogs-for-adoption/">Dog's Home</a>, on the other hand, seems to be full to the brim with ever more dogs, all looking for that special someone to take them home. The poor things have to spend a good part of their day shut into a dismal cage, and if they are lucky they'll get paired up with a mate to play with. According to our volunteer's sign in book, there are days when nobody turns up at all to walk a few dogs, and from experience, ALL dogs like a walk. <br />
