Heart Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Hello I'm Della. I have a Staffie called Pixie who is about three years old. I got her from a stray dog kennels almost a year ago (though it feels like she's been here forever ). She is black brindle and has a white marking on her chest that looks like an upside-down heart (hence my corny username!). Her favourite things are cuddles, tummy rubs, chasing her ball-on-a-rope, puppies, carrots, chewing her Kong, horses, cheese and lie-ins under the duvet. She is a very sociable girl and loves meeting people and dogs. She isn't so friendly when it comes to foxes and cats though!! I've taken quite a lot of pics of her on my mobile but need to get them online. I thought I would join a forum instead of continuing to bore my family and friends by talking about dogs all the time!

Heart Posted July 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 (edited) I can't make the image appear. It appears in the box I type in but not when I preview the post. Edited July 8, 2009 by Heart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReikiAnge Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 You need to either add the photos to the gallery on here and post them (and despite being a mod I've never done that so I'm not entirely sure how ) or do what many do, including me, and set up an account with http://www.photobucket.com. Then all you need to do is load your photos up to that (size of around 640 x 480 is ideal for forums) and copy the IMG code from underneath the photo on photobucket and paste it into your reply box on here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heart Posted July 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 At last! Here she is. Not great quality as they are off my phone and I'm not very steady! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaraMoochi Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 Hi Della, and Pixie! Welcome to The Refuge, its great here, so glad you have joined us - and you're right, you are in good company to talk for ages happily about Pixie when ever you like, we love it - especially when there are more pics! It took me a while to figure out uploading pics, but you soon get into the swing of it - then you'll be posting ten at a time! I'm a big staffie lover, I especially loved the second picture, such a gorgeous girlie! I have 3 elderly rescues, 2 staffie girls, and a girl jack russell - Tara, Tessie and Tinky x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heart Posted July 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 Thanks! I'll try to get more photos as I'd really love to capture all aspects of her personality. I wish I'd got one of her the other day. One thing I've noticed about Staffies is they seem to like to sit/lie in funny positions. She was literally kneeling down on what would be her knees if she was human, with her hind paws sticking out behind her. I did laugh at her a bit! I'll see what else I've got on my phone...

Heart Posted July 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 Yay, I remembered how to do it (eventually)! Here she is sunbathing at my mum and dad's. Here's another one: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
