  1. This is a very sad story, Joybelle, but I think you have posted it in the wrong forum. Ask the moderator for assistance.
  2. Great news. Hope little Sampson lives to at least 20 to make up for lost years.
  3. Yes, I wonder from time to time - poor little thing I guess the best option would be to phone the zoo.
  4. I'm not sure which is the winner ;) Naturally, I don't have any stories to tell . DOL's hard drive space would run out...........
  5. That is good news GSD FAN. I think it was the thread started by you I referred to above. Glad you weren't deterred by all of us
  6. Although blood and guts aren't exactly something I want to see or be involved with, having several dogs of my own, I think it is something I could benefit from. So I'd like to put my hand up for this please, Corvus. If the "voucher" hasn't already been claimed, I'll pm you my details. Thank you very much.
  7. Ordered via website and paid by direct deposit.
  8. Oh, the darling little fellow. I do hope this is the end of his health issues.
  9. Rommi n Lewis, you need educating. Sadly, that photo is relatively tame. I get a lot of mailouts from the various organisations I donate to, and I cannot even look at them. I just write a cheque every so often and sign petitions
  10. The beauty of youth. When I was travelling in Spain (over 40 years ago ), I wanted to do that and even wanted to see a bullfight. But now? I hope bullfighting is eventually banned, unbelievably cruel and anyone who wants to do the Bull Run is crazy to take such a risk. Statistics are fine, but they don't mean much if you are the one with a horn up your groin.
  11. Max $200 Wow, that may limit you I believe. Sydney rents are incredibly overpriced at the moment. Bark is looking to share so if someone has a three bedroomed house with a vacant bedroom, it is possible . Hopefully something will come up quickly.
  12. But in all this melee there is someone with their Chihuahua http://www.smh.com.au/photogallery/travel/...selectedImage=0
  13. There was a thread recently about House Sitting with your own dog and most people responded in the negative, that is, they would not want a house sitter coming with their own dog. Just don't want you spending too much time chasing down dead ends, Bark.
  14. Oh those photos with Jack are splendid. And the one of Luki and Bailey . Can it be true, he was ever that tiny and skinny . Wonderful photos telling wonderful stories of love.
  15. I'm not one for cliches, but something has been going over and over in my mind when I was thinking about you Jed, and it just wouldn't coalesce, but finally it has. What I think epitomises your experience and how you have faced it is the old saying: When the going gets tough, the tough get going.
  16. Yes, I've had a few It's amazing really when you consider how many different sorts of pets and people they'd see in any one day.
  17. She is talking - LOL. Danny is driving me nuts at night. Growls all the time, he is half asleep and if anyone moves, he growls; if I move to pull up the blankets, he growls; and on and on and on. I'm practising my growling to get back at him.
  18. Every dog is different, Emm. There may be or may be not some things you "do wrong" with the next dog, but the biggest mistake would be to not give another dog that love and care you have given your current one
  19. Bugger, I was going to ask that. I think the Optovisor was on The Inventors (or New Inventors) a while ago and I did post here. The guy invented it because his dogs had continual problem with his eyes and needed protection. B*&^%y person in vet clinic. I'd report her . Hopefully the optovisor will do the trick.
  20. I thought so, but sometimes you just have to get it out !!! Oh no!! Off to have a look.
  21. I don't know that I go along with this, S/chick, unless it is just verbal on the facebook site. However, one of the problems we face today is that all levels of government have divested themselves of caring for the mentally ill. Institutions have been shut because so many were hell holes, but nothing was put in place for people such as this man. He obviously shouldn't be allowed in the community, but there is no where for him to go where he would be safe and the community would be safe. Gods knows what the solution is.
