  5. The human is my son. The puppy (granddaughter) is Indy. This is their second border collie. The other is called Kiba (she's about 2 yrs I think) and Indy is meant to be a playmate for her. They have the same mum but different dad and a few litters apart.

    Good to hear they will go into a bigger tank as they will need it. Are the calicos short or long finned? Comets are really better in a pond. Aquariums are for the long finned varieties that don't swim about much.

  21. I see it is about to be sold out too. I do hope nobody puts a fish in it
  22. It is that time of year people. We are getting a number of campylobacter cases (I work for a doctor) as people do not store or handle their food correctly in the hot weather. It is a nasty disease and extremely painful!!! KEEP THAT FOOD CHILLED (especially chicken). Good hygiene is important as campylobacter is contagious! Studies have found that New Zealand has the highest rates of campylobacter food poisoning in the developed world – three times higher than England and Wales and 10 times higher than the US. Some 75,000 New Zealanders contract the illness every year and around 500 require hospital treatment. Risk factors include: •Undercooked chicken or meat – especially fried or barbecued chicken. Up to 60% of raw chicken in supermarkets has been found to be contaminated with campylobacter •Foods that have been infected by campylobacter – for example poorly stored chicken may have touched other foods on workbenches •Contaminated shellfish •Contaminated water •Unpasturised milk •Drinking from outdoor streams and rivers •Direct contact with infected farm animals and pets •Adults can contract the illness from their children – for example during nappy changing, though this is relatively uncommon •Campylobacter bacteria can also be found in household pets such as dogs and cats Complications from campylobacter include hepatitis, pancreatitis and miscarriage. Serious, but rare, complications of campylobacter include a form of arthritis and Guillain-Barre Syndrome, which is a nervous system disorder. In 2005, two people in New Zealand died from campylobacter.
