NARGA members do read what's going on here on DOL... I got slammed on FB for putting forward my views when the topic first came up... Not the best way to convince me that I want to join them... *sigh* T.

Max is a gorgeous little character, so happy and friendly with everyone. A huge personality in that little barrel body... lol! T.

Oh my! Aren't they totally squeal-worthy? PUUUUUUPPPPIIIIEEEESSS!!!!! T.

I really think that SA in dogs is diagnosed almost as often as ADD in children... and the answer is the same, medicate to avoid NORMAL behaviour from dogs or humans if you don't want to engage them enough to not exhibit unwanted behaviours. Jellyblush is awesome IMHO - she's taking so much on board to deal with Roo's undesirable behaviours. I'm sure her persistence will pay off well in the end. T.

I was so worried that Harper would tread on Max when they were playing zoomie conga lines, but Max is obviously well versed in avoiding obstacles... lol! It would be awesome to have another playdate for the furkids - Harper was still subdued from all the exercise until about lunch time on Sunday... bliss! Hint hint Katdogs... think we could do semi regular doggie fun BBQ's? T.

Run free Hamlet... T.

Might be better to call the Crime Stoppers line instead 1800 333 000 - the 000 number can take a while to get through to someone if the incident isn't human life threatening. T.

Max was the life of the party, wasn't she? Being a barrel on legs also means that you just roll, get up, and keep on playing... lol! T.

All of the dogs at the BBQ are forever furkids poochmad. Maybe if we have another BBQ, I'll see about bringing along a couple of rescues that are looking for new homes too, OK? T.

The likelihood of getting a Sydney RSPCA ranger out to attend to a case of a dog in a car at short notice would be nil DD... I'd call the police instead... T.

Interesting list... T.

It's definitely a classic... lol! What about the other ones where she's underestimated her speed and toppled over the front corner of the pool... *giggle* Max really knows how to have a good time... T.

OK - have uploaded 316 photos to a Photobucket album... http://s6.beta.photobucket.com/user/tdierikx/library/16-2-2013-bbq-fun Enjoy! T.

I'll definitely second that! Always the voice of reason and logic - even in debates with contentious issues. Love your work mita! T.

You do know that you are now obliged to post weekly photo updates of the babies as they grow, don't you? These pups now have a fan club... *grin* T.

I think that a lot of people look to adopt rescue dogs because all of the vet work is already done for them. They love that they aren't going to have to be responsible for desexing, etc. And they are usually pretty cheap to buy considering all the work that goes into ensuring that they are adoptable too. T.

I got a few of Tess and Fleming playing tug with you too MadWoofter. There are maybe over 100 pool fun shots... Max and Sammy were hilarious doing zoomies in and out - there are a few really funny upside-down pug shots as Max couldn't slow down enough and rolled over the side of the pool... lol! How about I just resize the lot and upload them to a Photobucket album, then I can post the link to the album, and everyone can see all of the shots? Total number of decent photos is 360-odd... out of the 500-odd that I actually took. Even my decent camera had some blurry ones due to the frenzy of activity that was going one... *grin* T.

I just ate a poo on grass cupcake... *grin* T.

Dogs are extremely stoic... we'd have no idea if they were in any pain most of the time, as they just get on with it... T.

Max is such a happy little soul... I hope I caught that with her solo photo... *grin* T.

Zeddy (13) still gets her inner puppy going when she feels like it... Gotta love the oldies! T.

Who you calling OLD? I plays good! ... and I also knows how to cool off... New friends... Sorry Jaz... couldn't resist... I haz kisses for Aunty Caz... yep - she tastes GOOD! My turn! Yummy treats!! Cool cupcakes! How everyone felt at the end of the day... *yawn* A great time had by all methinks... T.

Hey - where you went? Pool time! Is wets in there - me helps you out, OK? Pug zoomies!! Zoomies is even better when it involves water! Bitey face pug/lab style... Splashies! More pug zoomies... Hey! She's BIGGER than ME! One more lot to come...

Okies, I've pruned down to 27 photos - so it's going to take 3 posts to get them all up... First up, single shots of each of the dogs that attended the BBQ... Stevie Max Boston Harper Sammy Fleming Jasmine Tess Jodie *note* the photos of Tess and Jodie were taken by the lovely Leah... I'm thinking she has a pretty good eye - hint hint Caz... *grin* More coming...

DD says she watched the car for at least 15 minutes, but it could have been there for up to about 30 mins before the owner came back to the car. T.
