Loving my Oldies

You do have a house full -- should be interesting when the puppies are wobbling around. I think you'd better start stocking up on tissues for the day they go back to their human mum

Is there any creature worse than some humans? Truly sickening.

I do laugh at myself when I tell them to do something or, more often, not to do something. But then my excuse is that they are my live in companions - LOL.

Two mothers . What lucky babes, so spoilt for choice. How many dogs do you have? I wonder if a Fuzzy Whippet would grow up thinking he/she was a Fuzzy Whippet or whether, his mums were "Smooth Shepherds" :D

:laugh: :laugh: Oh, I shouldn't laugh Kiesha09, but your description is so spot on. I have posted in the past that you'd think I was putting a bowl of poison in front of them. Quite often, I will put out the food for the deck three, check on them and they are all standing at the glass sliding door looking in with such pathetic looks on their faces. The deck is covered by the way and about 4 metres wide - LOL - so not a scary, exposed to the elements place.

Yes, that probably was it as I usually tell them 15 LOL Water bowls at least can stay in the same position :laugh:

My dogs' frustrating eating foibles have been well documented over the years LOL, but I think today adds yet another chapter. . I recently stopped feeding them in the morning and although that worked for a while, they were desperately hungry and barking and jumping by about 5pm. Therefore, I started giving them roo jerky to chew on in the mornings. This seemed to give them diarrhoea, so I went back to giving them just a very small meal in the morning. Bunter would eat anything in gold medal wining time, to he is shut in one of the bedrooms for his meal. Myrtie eats very slowly and deposits her food all over the floor, so I put down newspaper in the kitchen for her. The other three are shut out on the deck with Tamar's bowl on her bed and the other two just on the floor a fair way apart. After a few minutes, I checked on the deck three only to see them just standing around with the food untouched. I knew they loved what I had given them (raw meat, mashed vegetables and tuna lightly warmed), so I was not amused. What to do? All I did was to putt all the bowls in different places and told them they had 5 minutes. I went back a few minutes later and the bowls were licked clean.

I can foresee many happy years together.

Perfect

Thanks for the update. So good to know all is going well. Is mother convinced they are hers? :laugh: :laugh:

Nothing like a down to earth country person :laugh: :laugh:

Sincere condolences, Gillybob. Your dogs were woven into every second of your life and to have them gone must feel as though part of you has been cruelly ripped away. I remember when you adopted Molly too. Blessings to you and Gilly.

Those photos are really beautiful .... so special. Lucky everyone in that family.

I hope he is none the worse for his adventure, although no doubt his humans have aged 20 years.

LOL - mine starts and ends with finding toothbrush !!

My thoughts, too.

Hmm, trying to imagine Smelly Stan with nose piercings. Nup - I don't like them at the best of times. A flower behind his ear is much nicer. :laugh: :laugh:

Stan needs a new name: Magnet Fridgy Piggy Burster Smelly ( :D :D ) Can't think of anymore. Need a desperately.

That looks to be shaping up to be a great day. I hope everyone has the best time.

Absolutely correct :laugh: :laugh:

That is just such good news, Kirislin. I can feel your relief

Excellent Gorgeous dogs.

Jeez, I got all excited thinking this was about plastic surgery for dogs. Tamar has often said to me that she thinks she could be even more beautiful with a nose job. :D

If that little chap were to end up in a pound and not chipped, he'd probably be listed as a Staffy cross. The smooth coated ones looked gorgeous, but solid like staffy crosses. Mine is a staffy cross, I posted it to show what PF meant. The dogs on the link are probably much smaller. Oh - LOL. Yes the smooth coated ones looked quite small, but still Staffyish. Shame they are so energetic. I'm at the couch potatoe stage :D
