:) Cute .

Seems you will have to use a long line on the beach ?

Maybe check out the Council site for that area?

here is a thread on cushings ... LINK

LOL Caillie is getting a bit lazy in her dotage - she is in her 14th year , and is our senile delinquent ; stealer of mobile phones, jackets, notebooks, lunchboxes ....

CC ... Gorgeous!!! .......... and little shirts :) :)

Ohhh- he is lovely!! :)

Yay perse! I spent 7 years dreaming between meeting my first toller and getting one of my own...it's nice when dreams do come true :) Tollers were once on my list - just such happy faces and amazing colour! I met my first crestie at the Royal Melbourne Show ....ohh , back in the late 1980's ? I remember what it felt like to pat him .. his skin felt like that of someone sunbaking on a beach - warm, oily & a bit gritty :)

powderpuffs do have that massive gorgeous coat - but what I am now talking of are the hairy hairless - hairless with some visible coat , aside from mane , etc .

awwww..it's a baby Gremlin!!

Thanks, YG !! :) ... having never ever set my sights on a particular type/breed of dog - I'm enjoying this :) ( Mind you , fate has some funny ideas ..and it could well send me some large boofer with bear claws and a deadly tail - oh, wait_ that's already happened ! ... anyhow .. dreams are to be enjoyed ;) )

At some stage IN THE FUTURE I hope to have a little Chinese Crested companion ..... IN THE FUTURE ;) Today I discovered there are 'hairy hairless' ones :D Some look very , ermmm, 'artistic' ..others are just gorgeous scruffs ..and others have a '5 o'clock' shadow effect :) I LIKE . Hmmmm.... My dream is taking shape :)

That's great news about the fence rebuilding ..and the fact that council are working with you :) A simple way to stop food aggression is to feed dogs separately .. out of sight of each other . ..saves anxiety and worry !!

:) she looks extremely content .....

animal ark .. glad the lump has settled - :) Basically , if you need anything dog related , this is the best spot in cyberspace This forum is full of all sorts of people , and all sorts of stuff gets posted- some helpful, and some not so . --- learning to use the 'ignore function ' (found in the "my controls" section) helps sometimes , as does realising that often a thread will take on a life of its own ;)

She will probably come in again 4-5 mths from now .. so sometime soon seems a good plan to me :)

:D :D

It's usually something which gradually absorbs :)

:) It does feel good when you find that what you've done is the right thing ! I hope that this vet visit will result in a diagnosis of something easily fixable for your little guy .

Hopefully it is the remnants of a sting .... I would have thought an abscess would be painful , but a vet visit is a good plan! :)

..and a happysnap of Widge with her grandma , Old Gertie - who is deaf , and getting quite wobbly now , altho she still enjoys a wander somewhere different :)

LEO .. our best yard dog, Hamlet & he had the same dad :) he is around 11 yrs now, and getting a bit slower .... Widget (wee widget) , Mr. Wilson's favourite victim! he usually has her quivering in a corner when we go to bed ... poor Widge :p

?large as in .. orange sized? Golf ball sized? Where on his neck ? When was he vaccinated last ? It's almost Impossible to guess correctly from this side of the screen .. it 'could' be all sorts of things .....Glad he's happy & unaware :)

They look impressive on flickr! :)
