Jump 6ft+ fences Find fox poo, rotten potatoes and other such stinking things to roll in, yuk!

Thinking of you both, please let us know how he gets on x

If only all our precious ones could live forever....... Leaving being an emotional wreck aside, I think it just shows all of our woofs have their little quirks.........but we love them too. I've giggled so much reading about others little 'habits', it's like men and toilet seats Luke's other ones have to be taking smalls to the postman or anyone else who comes to the door, thinks it's hilarious dumping my bra at the postmans feet (have got a bra bag to wash them in now so doesn't tend to get them ) still takes the socks/knickers when dropped between washing machine and line, does nothing with them but then I have to go hunting for them. Just because you're half labrador doesn't mean you have to steal the toilet roll.....That people with sticks/canes don't just want to hurt you....That yes like many others you don't need to react as if you've never been walked before when the lead is touched....Oh and you're 30kg, not a lapdog at all, so please stop sitting on my knee as you're really heavy!

Ours did the same, sadly we lost one of ours before Xmas but they both used to go crackers as soon as they seen the caravan or us packing the cases, they just knew. My dog I still have couldn't cope in kennels well so we'd basically stopped going on holiday because we'd come back to a very upset dog who had not eaten all week Some sites cost us less than we paid in just kennel fees per night for all of the family + the dogs! Can't imagine holidays without dogs now, we were away all summer with them last year.

Some great responses Good luck to those trying to get their woofs to have more manners He's never tried to open the fridge thankfully Mines good with other dogs, he usually runs up to them looking all playful then runs off at first as he's used to being attacked..... Pick up his own poo would be a good one too dirtychicken - Have you thought of trying a ramp for Bran? We have one that was particularly useful for Megan

You can use it online, oh, wonder how that works then..... Agreed, dangerous things, especially when DS2 playing ski jump on the wii fit and nearly lands in the tele!

Was just about to suggest the same sites, however we eventually gave in and bought a caravan, best thing we ever did, very few sites aren't dog friendly!

That's why Luke no longer has a bed......well actually he's been better with cushions so might try a new one....but looking at those photos, nah!

Luke Lay down on command without rolling over, just something he's never mastered, we got him when he was about 7 months and he'd had no training so just to sit was a big thing! (as was playing with toys etc) but he can't manage to lay down without rolling over onto at least his side Close doors he's figured how to open them but of course has no reason in his head to close them after him.....

Holly and Luke were about 1 year old I think, apart from width ways which they would never stop if you let them get away with it.

for you, what a lovely brave lady she was, I know how hard Christmas is without them so just wanted to offer my sympathy and empathy x

So tragic, my thoughts are with his family and loved ones at what must be such a difficult time

for you and your family, what a sweetie, sleep well Tasha

Thanks for all your messages, days are getting easier but she's left a rather big gap which I doubt will ever be filled, all of our friends who she was always a favourite with have also been upset, next year caravanning without her won't be the same. for those who offered messages of support who have lost their own, truly special to think of others when you feel the pain yourself

Thank you for your messages and support, she was beautiful, my baby girl. Eyes sting and heart aches but she doesn't need to hurt any more which is what matters, I know I'll stop needing to cry some time soon, just doesn't feel that way right now.
