Crikey you lot have been busy Happy New Year to you all and a special HNY to all your lovely pooches

Gotta go work in a minute but thought I'd briefly say summat - if only the bliddy RSPCA were as quick to react to REAL cruelty cases (not saying this is not deserving but pleeeese, come on), and as for the red tops, I stopped buying em ages ago for all the derogatory clap trap they print re Rottweilers.

run Free with my Nina Mason, and have fun at the Bridge

here she is - taken a couple of weeks ago, such a happy smiley face, I only had her 5 months 2 days, and she was 12/13 yrs young, a wee foster that stayed I'm so missing her it's untrue

My darling little girl had to be pts last night, when I'm ok I will post again, I am going to miss her soo soo much,

Yep - and look at stopping testing on animals. err it's an animal product what they sposed to test it on??? I am only joking, i know where you're coming from, your post just made me chuckle

Anyone got any info on the fact that the DLCC has lost its appeal against the gov't in Ontario with regards to BSL? (Dog Legislation Council of Canada) Just heard this today on the grapevine??

I've got this to come so am here for you and sending tons of Now he can run where he wants to xxxxxxxxx

Back in the middle of Sept there was a 'Top Dog Day Out' in our local forest (Forestry Commission), it was brill, Eve had a go at agility, there was the usual dog show; waggiest tail, etc., the dog warden was there, some therapy for dogs was there (ah just remembered, think it was Bowman?), Hearing Dogs for the Deaf had a stall and there was demonstrations too, oh and you could have a go at flyball too itwas a brill day out

Thank you all for your good wishes for Nina, she is a very special little girl, we have only had her since the end of May, but she is going to leave one huge hole in my heart, she is so gentle, never ever has had a cross word, (well only to tell Eve off for trying to nick her biccies), and is so affectionate, anyways here's a 'face' pic of her and this is her on her daily sojourn in the garden btw, she is 12 years young, or thereabouts, we're not 100% sure of her age

Nina was diagnosed last week with bone cancer, tis in her shoulder so we are spoiling our little girl rotten, we do not know how long she has got left with us so we're taking each day as a bonus and a special day, here she is getting to grips with an early Christmas card

do you mean John Fisher? I've got his 'bible' on canine psychology, it's brilliant, and tis such a shame that he's passed on

Can anyone living in the Bramley, Leeds area try and get a look at the Dogs4us superstore. I have been told they have got 3 emaciated bassett pups and 3 emaciated rottie pups in there. I googled Dogs4us and found forums setting up talking about the puppies possibly coming from puppy farms in Ireland. If anyone gets to see anything please can you do you best to get this practise stopped. Trading standards or RSPCA maybe. Google Dogs4us. (crossposted from another forum)

Jeez I should put some of my son's manky pics on here, forgot all about em He does downhill mountain biking and has some lovely injuries , he sees them as trophies (off i go in search lol lol )

Best of luck with the calendar Melp rather yu than me nudge nudge wink wink

all the very best to such a handsome chap hope he soon finds a forever home (I'm sure he will ) btw seeing as you kinda 'know' the lovely person who had him in the beginning and who very kindly broke his leg - can't you report them to the RSPCA? (i am being heavily sarcastic - obviously - cos i dont want to be banned)

I've put a pic of my manky pinky in the manky bits thread (albeit not so manky now tho' ) esp for the sympathetic people amongst you (and we all know who you are ) its not a good pic so sorry for that

Minging finger with skin wrenched off courtesy of a JRT who thought it would be fun to goad my Rott who ran after him at 90mph wiht me trying tohold on to lead and not succeeding (ground muddy and v slippy lol) esp for Melp and the gory lot (apologies for quality I'm pants at pics and it is much better now, took it this morning and i did it on Weds)

where's the manky parts thread gone? i know i've been absent for a while (in both mind and spirit lol) but i've forgot where it is (dont get excited tho bandage off tomoz )

for everyone who loved Dolly , RIP lovely girl xxxxx

Thank you for your concern for my poorly finger esp Melp - the dressing has to stay on til tomoz and then i'll take a pic for you , but be warned - it might not be manky any more lol, having said that it's still weeping tons

My wedding ring finger and the one next to it (not me pinky) is killing me today cos yesterday a JRT went for Eve and she told it to eff off and off i went at 90mph cos it was slippy and me shoes slid on the mud and the lead took all me skin off me finger, bout 4 layers of skin sorry if there's JRT peps reading this but at this moment in time i could kill all JRT's i went to see the nurse at teh surgery this arvo and she gave me a tetanus so now me arm is killin too

I know I'm a 'newbie' when it comes to Landywoods cos I've only used em since Jan, but they have always been good and Janet is always nice to me on phone (prob cos I'm nice to her ) the only c*** up I had was the last del when both of their vans crashed on same day, one of em was my delivery van (thank dog the drivers were ok tho' eh)?

oh dog love him , after all he's had to endure he has happy eyes, looks really well in those pics, hope he 'mends' soon pls give him a big from me Eve n Nina xxxxx
