Just copy the BBCode from Flickr, and just paste it as is into your post - no need to add any extra tags... T.

Sorry Gruflife, but if you had read a fraction of what goes on in that place you would not be wondering why people are getting so upset about it. Obviously every one would like people to be more responsible when buying their pets and look after them for life but that is not what this is about. This is about people who are entrusted to 'look after' the animals in the care, doing the exact opposite. This is about the animals. They may have had the misfortune of having crappy owners but they do not deserve what happens to them in there. I beg to differ teekay... Gruf has a very valid point there... If more effort went into reducing the easy "turnover" of pets, then maybe shelters would be less crowded and therefore be able to do more about their rehoming rates. Pounds and shelters are only in existence because people let their animals end up there - for whatever reason - and the space in pounds/shelters is actually finite... Releasing animals to rescue is not the solution to the initial problem - it's a fallback for an untenable position. T.

Love it Kirislin!!! T.

Are the photos uploaded to Flickr in JPG format? Flickr allows PNG format, but I don't think DOL does... Or you may be selecting the wrong code format for the link in Flickr... you need to select BBCode (3rd one above the box where the link is) T.

Important Request For Allerzoit And Grumpette
tdierikx replied to Brandiandwe's topic in General Dog Discussion
You might be onto something!! Never thought of it that way! No, no - refuse to entertain that idea :p The poor unsuspecting public should Luna, Lace, or Zeph's sisters Fire and Nova have a litter. Behind their adorable cuteness and charm, lies evil geniuses with an amazing amount of confidence, who can problem solve like Einstein. It is very scary. Maybe we should be looking for stunning suitors who are not very clever Hahahaha! too funny! T. -
I have always known that there was something very special about wee Trouble... *grin* T.

Thousands Of Dog Attacks Reported In Melbourne
tdierikx replied to samoyedman's topic in In The News
Geez! Wouldn't want to live on the Central Coast... lots of reports there... ... but based on several DOLers accounts, not much followup on said reports... *sigh* Funny how we don't get any breakdown on the followup to those reports... T. -
Thousands Of Dog Attacks Reported In Melbourne
tdierikx replied to samoyedman's topic in In The News
I think the rise in reports is that with the new rules, it's easier to do so... and for some rather trivial reasons to boot... what one person sees as a menacing rush, someone else would see as an enthusiastic happy greeting of a new friend by an exhuberant pup... T. -
I used to have my Flickr linked to my Gmail account, but then Flickr ended up forcing a Yahoo account on me... but my primary email address is still my Gmail one - everything from Flickr gets redirected to my primary email address. T.

We had a pet duck that used to beat up the neighbourhood dogs... he was one nasty piece of work! T. -

Rat traps set with chocoloate... they can't resist chocolate. My dad would set one in the roof and it would go off before he could replace the manhole cover! T.

Yes... and she's done some amazing work with her local pounds... a very deserved nomination. T. -
I've been in the same situation a few times myself... and you are right, they are the hardest ones to send to God... but they just wouldn't have been safe to rehome, and you can't keep a dog in a shelter environment forever. Rescue has a responsibility to the community as well as to the animals they "save"... T.
