this is all another language to me, I wish I understood. I dont know if you use the Canon programs that come for free with your 7D. They're actually pretty good, you can adjust WB, clone, straighten, correct lens aberration, reduce noise, sharpen and play with curves plus lots of other stuff.

absolutely beautiful, it looks so tranquil

My first and only thought actually is pain somewhere, I'm going through it myself right now so I think I know how he feels. I hope he's ok now.

I've had a dog at the park pee on me twice, and both times his owner was mortified and said he doesn't pee on anyone else. I rarely see them there so it could have been several years between piddles, but his reaction to me was the same. I see them walking sometimes up there now but I keep away, it happened years ago so I wonder if it would be the same, I'm not going to test it. I'm sure he's desexed and he seems an otherwise friendly gentle dog, doesn't come across as dominant.

congrats, I've got the 7D and I love it. I dont regret buying it at all.

Mine would have thought that was a toy and Tag and Puck would've taken it outside and had it in pieces in seconds. Very cute, he's certainly a handsome boy.

yep, I buy it from the butcher, it's suitable for human consumption but because people wont eat it, it's quite cheap.

fantastic!! Whenever I go to the zoo the lions are just little specks in the distance, and they're always sleeping.

Sounds delicious...are you prepared to part with the recipe? Pretty please I put 3 kilos of chicken mince, and 1 kilo of ox into a pot with about a litre of warm water, some fresh rosemary from my garden and a couple of rough chopped garlic cloves. Put the heat on as low as it will go. In a separate pot I gently cook about 3/4 cup of split peas, once they're softened I chuck them and the water they cooked in into the chicken pot. Give it a stir, still keep it on low. I chop up carrots, pumpkin, sweet potato, whatever is on special at the time basically and chuck that in too. Once it's almost cooked I add 1 3/4 cups of white rice, stir and put the lid back on. When it's cooked I then chop up cabbage or bok choy or similar leafy green, stir it through, put the lid back on but turn the heat off. Just let it soften a bit and then put into 2 litre ice cream containers. You should fill about 4 of them. I let them cool in the fridge and I dont put lids on them. If you wanted to put lids on them, make sure they're completely cooled first. My dog also get meaty bones at least once, sometimes more, per week.

I do a weekly cook up for my dogs of a chicken mince and ox cheek loaf. They're all in pretty good health so I think it must be good for them.

Puck did this and exposed the bone. The nail did grow back, they're pretty hard to completely remove the roots I think, but it now grows on an annoying angle so I have to keep it trimmed for fear that he'll tear it off again because of the way it grows.

I love the last one most!

these are great Larissa.

I hope the dogs have got through the night with no ill effects. It's strange that he didn't try to hide the fact he'd been there. Did you son say he was hurrying away? Did you tell the police he left blood behind? I think I'd be asking them to get samples of it. How unsettling

you must feel so relieved.

Me too.

Me too... I love your Whippet fun day photos... and anything with Tag in it... *grin* T. :laugh: thanks.

do you mean that it came up in a search for brushing dogs? That's a bit misleading if it did.

the other great thing DOL has done for me is given me the opportunity to spread the word about the little social whippet club I am involved with. I'd never have been able to get an audience like I have on DOL anywhere else. I'm very grateful for that.

Reggie go home.

Borax is supposed to be good, but I would assume it's not good for animals.

what a beauty she's grown into.

You should take a bow too Kirislin - you have been there for Julie and I know how much she appreciates you. Me too. friends help friends, but YOU helped a stranger. Actually you help many strangers!

Yep, thankyou DOL and PACERS

that's really cute, and funny! :laugh:
