*Avanti*

I just noticed this thread RuralPug and what came to mind was to suggest maybe you could use one of those silver windscreen shade cover things to cover instead of a space blanket? It might be cheaper and they are a bit padded as well. *2 cents suggestion :) *

Love your cosy kitties pic!

See if I can do it again :laugh:

I found this a very touching article so wanted to share it:

The oldest man in Australia has never been good at saying no. Even at 109-years-old, Alfred Date agrees to help anyone and everyone in need. His desire to help is how he ended up knitting tiny jumpers for adorable little penguins.............

I'm sorry to hear this Sheridan, RIP Miss Mini

Happy Birthday Feather. May you have many more happy zoomy years... :D

How gorgeous. I had a male Labrador who did that. I came home in the middle of winter to find him in his kennel with two 5-6 week old Jack Russell pups that had been dumped in the back lane. They were snuggled up against him on a bitter cold day. It brings tears remembering how sweet and gentle he was. The pups went to the pound and found homes after that.

I wonder what else comes in on private jets. :)

that's what's been concerning me too!

I saw this on FB today, I hope no one minds me posting it but it is somewhat ironic that these dogs came here without detection.

Welcome little Axel, he's gorgeous! :)

Awww welcome little Willow, she's beautiful. :)

Awww, he's missing his mum and siblings I suppose. It's been many years since I had a new puppy but from memory the howling didn't last for many nights, maybe only one or two. Enjoy your new little boy and I look forward to seeing pics and hearing of his progress. My 11 year old lab is sleeping soundly next to me on the bed as I write. :)

Awww, Patch is gorgeous with such beautiful eyes. I hope he finds a happy and caring forever home.

I love this thread! :)

I'm sorry for your loss, such a sweet girl. Rest in peace Emmylou

I'm very sorry for your loss Dogbesotted, that's such a lovely tribute and beautiful pic. RIP Dennys Dog.

My condolences Kajtek, they can leave a big hole in our hearts.

May it stay filled with the love he shared with you.

RIP sweet boy Kajtek.

Happy Birthday Stan. :)

This story is heart-warming, & what a gorgeous dog! :)

Hero police dog Marco finds missing dementia patient clinging to a branch in a freezing river after officers had spent HOURS searching the same area

A NSW Police dog named Marco has saved the life of a 65-year-old man

The dementia patient went missing from a facility at Mardi, NSW

Marco repeatedly led his attached officer to a specific spot on the river's steep embankment that had previously been searched with no luck

The man was found hidden behind a branch he was clinging onto.

Awww, is it her birthday? Happy 6 Lulu. :)

Thanks HazyWal, I love those pics!

My condolences on your loss of ChiChi Powerlegs. Rest in Peace beautiful girl.

My condolences on the loss of your old mate Bob and family. Those years certainly do fly. He looks gorgeous in that photo. RIP WWW

I hope it is found soon and safely, there are some busy roads around there.

Was LDH also involved in a case last year where and old man in an agitated state surrendered his dog and when his daughters went to claim it back they found out it had already been pts? I think the man had alzhiemers and the daughters had rung while the dog was still alive only to be told it wasn't there, but when they kept looking for the dog they found out it was but had been pts after their initial phone call.

I looked but couldn't find the original story.

I remember that Little Gifts, it was a very sad story.

I think it was discussed in this thread. http://www.dolforums.com.au/topic/260665-ldh-at-it-again/page__p__6606446__hl__%2Blost+%2Bdogs+%2Bhome__fromsearch__1#entry6606446

I'm sorry to hear this Dave73. You really gave her your best, it must be devastating to lose her. Rest in peace Jazz.
