Loving my Oldies

Shoola!, LOL

It isn't that Australian's are too irresponsible, it is because laws are made for the minority and for those who yell loudly enough. One person gets upset about something so screams: there should be a law against it.

He looks like Sphinx Cat LOL.

As BlackJaq says, but in addition turn the hose on the kid who walks past kicking the fence. You might have to stand on a ladder to do this.

There is her name: Shoo.

And whose fault was this? This post really annoys me. Blame the owner not the dog

I broke my rule of not looking at rescue organisations' website . What a stunning lot of dogs this organisation has.

Congrats everyone. Many happy years ahead for Billy and his Valbitz family. Those photographs are beautiful.

In my usual shy and backward manner, I have to say that that is rubbish :laugh: :laugh: . Sorry, K. I believe there is only one person you need to please and that is you. :) :)

indeed. I managed, but I needed a cupcake to see me through the trauma.

Three interesting posts illumninating what (just my opinion) I think is going wrong in terms of dogs in the community. Dogs should be part of the family, part of family activities and allowed in many more places than they currently are. I would have taken one of my dogs to the polling booth with me, but I was going on to do a bit of shopping. There was a man waiting outside with a Staffy who was somewhat overweight, but that's not doggy's fault. I asked the man if I could pat him and he said yes and then followed it up with, "He's fine, looks can be deceiving." I thought it was so sad that he felt he had to defend his dog. We had a bit of a chat and doggy loved me ...... my doggy smells that is :D

Finding the dogs safe and well and being looked after with such loving care will be a bright spot in a very very tragic time.

Oh goody. Tell your carer she can bring Sparky for a visit. She will probably totally overwhelme my lot, but she will LOVE LOVE LOVE my back yard with all the doggy smells. Dogs who come to visit are not seen for ages as they disappear under the deck and into the bushes LOL.

Koala was "in first". I will wait to hear from her.

It is a wire crate with the hard plastic "floor" you can pull out. It measures 560mm x 900mm. I don't know how high as it is folded. I can't open it up as I am in agony with a bad back but going from the Vebo Pet website (where I bought it some years ago), I imagine it would be about 650mm high and classified as Large.

I have a large crate going begging if you or anyone you know of needs one. I am in Sydney (near Hornsby) but if you know of any rescue passing through, I'm happy to pass it on.

So many tragic incidents happen in a split second. Congratulations to your hubby and his colleague, Discodobe, and to you all for looking after these little dogs. I believe the RSPCA has a special sticker that you can leave by your door alerting any services of the animals (numbers, etc) in the house in times of emergencies.

Couldn't agree more. I think he should be listed as Unibrow Dog.

I had to laugh at this. I recall getting out the crate for one of my dogs who had to be kept quiet for a couple of days. Crate was duly set up in the dining/lounge with door open. Dog who needed to be kept quiet did so quite happily on a "free" bed and Mufti took over the crate. I felt really mean folding it up and putting it away again. ETA: I think genetically lots of dogs are still "cave dwellers". The other morning I woke up and couldn't find Myrtie. She had actually burrowed under the pillow in Gussy Cat's crate while Gussy Cat was playing Fur Hat on my head.

Styles Dog Grooming at Normanhurst breed and show Standard Poodles. 9980 8261. I take my own dogs there for grooming and often when I stop to have a chat they will have a dog there they are looking after. I don't know if they have a dog minding business as such, but they regularly have pups and dogs they have rehomed come and stay while the owners go away.

Yoo hoo, Marcus. I'm looking for a toy boy and with those shoes, I reckon you must have some old fashioned ideas.

Yesterday. "She's a good girl", said the grinning idiot walking his little dog off lead in the street. Yes, she was a good girl and went back immediately when he called her from crossing the road to say hello to my lot. However, it IS illegal.

Yes, I'll be interested to hear the results. Wishing you and Bella all the best.

:laugh: :laugh: Very quick (as always) Li'l Gifts Well, I didn't have an inkling, I was more focussed on the relationship between the hoomans. LOL. If she takes after her mum, Kirislin, she will be a knockout. I like the name Fame. Other suggestions: Flirt, Flaunt, Plume.
