WOW.

Concerns have been raised over the current assumptions about the ACT's dingoes, and its hoped more understanding can help the animals coexist with humans and other species.

This little boy started out Black and White. He decided he didn't like that colour. He will end up Cream. He is the last puppy available from this litter

We still have 4 lovely puppies who need homes. They are smart and learn quickly especially if food is involved. They are happy and healthy, DNA tested, microchipped, pedigreed and vaccinated.
If you need a good friend and someone to love who loves you back then my Spooky boys are just for you.
They are excellent family dogs and good watch dogs with a big booming voice. Burglar be gone.
Give me a message on 0413992645 and come meet the love of your life!

I have 5 lovely coated Peruvian puppies. They desperately need their own homes. I'm prepared to let them go for the cost of neutering. They are DNA tested, microchipped, vaccinated and pedigreed. Please don't think you would like one because they are free. You need to be the right person to understand their temperament.

Maybe if I call them Peruviandoodles and say they are rescues arseholes will stop reporting my posts. Because we all know that rescues give you the dogs for free (snort).

What makes a breeder ethical? An ethical breeder is defined as somebody who produces dogs with four goals in mind: clean genetic health, sound temperament, physical conformation, and purpose/functionality. This is a pretty broad statement and plenty of people can throw around these claimed achieveme...

The wonderful Peruvian Hairless Dog

𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝗲𝗿𝘂𝘃𝗶𝗮𝗻 (𝗛𝗮𝗶𝗿𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀 & 𝗖𝗼𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱)

There are many written articles regarding the origins of the Peruvian Hairless Dog, but, “according to certain experts, this dog was introduced to Peru during the Chinese immigration, soon after the promulgation of the law abolishing the slavery of blacks by the President of Peru. On the other hand, other researchers suppose that this dog comes from the African continent through the intermediary of nomads, who arrived in America accompanied by their hairless dogs.”

In Peru, and also common with many cultures, domestic dogs served not only as companion animals, but also contributed to the daily tasks undertaken by humankind. They watched over herds, participated in the hunt and guarded homes.

“Noble and affectionate at home with those close to him, at the same time lively and alert; he might be wary of strangers and a good watch dog.” This breed can be very shy at first and needs time to trust new people and things. Approach the dog with a no-nonsense attitude and pat him, if you approach slowly with hands out, the dog assumes the worst and backs away.

“The gene that causes hairlessness also results in the breed often having fewer teeth than other breeds, mostly lacking molarsand premolars. All are born with full sets of puppy teeth, but these are not fully replaced by adult teeth, as they naturally fall out, leaving them with varying levels of adult dentition.

Like all breeds there are some health problems, which can include IBD, seizures, stroke and skin lesions. They are very sensitive to toxins and care should be taken in use of insecticides. Insecticides are absorbed through the skin and body fat keeps these toxins from entering the liver too quickly. Since these dogs have very low body fat, toxins are absorbed too quickly and cause severe damage to the nervous system and GI tract.”
