I would love to think I was capable of making the ultimate sacrifice and saving my two, or putting my life in danger by staying with them..but in reality, who knows..I hear the will to self-survive is very strong so...hopefully I'm never put in that predicament.
-
Done.
Pets need to go with their family, for the welfare of the pets and the people. The sooner the powers that be realise this the better for all.
totally agree.
-
it's great to hear that there has been some tangible, positive action come out of all this pain you have had...to add, his photo shows him to be a gentle, loving soul...very evident in the photo.
-
aren't we lucky that most of us have found the wonderful secret that is a dog..if only others could see what we do...
Birthday wishes to the very handsome Fergus.

Oh not a nice thing to see. I witnessed a dog get hit by a car when I was little, it was horrible and I can still see it in my head like its happening right in front of me again
Hopefully he got home ok.
Ditto...and to this day I can clearly see the event unfold...and that was over 30 years ago...
-
I have no experience so cannot advise...but what a sad situation. I hope you both come out of it the better.

I think I've just had a cuteness overload...
-
I guess I work with the same approach as I do to humans..I remember one of my nans ate incorrectly, never exercised, smoked, drank and lived to her late 80s...but she never had any real stress and was loved.. now I'm not advocating that a dog should drink or smoke (!)....but the loving and stress avoidance bits are something we give our dogs in droves..seems to be working so far!
-
one happy and contented boy...nothing to regret with the wonderful life he obviously had ...just the passing bit.
-
This is an 80kg rottweiler, print this out and take it to your friend, ask him if this is what he wants?
that is serious dog cruelty..forget your starving; this is as bad!
-
TigerJack..your story is lovely..your little boy was meant to be.
-
How lovely for you both..here's to a long and fulfilling relationship
-
Unfortunately it's not just about who has better credentials to care for the dogs, it's also about love and what your soon to be ex has emotionally outlayed on both dogs..this is the bigger consideration and one I think that needs discussion with your (soon to be) ex....sorry.
-
I know I'm like one of those unbearable mothers who thinks their child is gifted/wonderful...the only difference is, I know that my little girl (pom x) is adorable/cute/clever/talented/funny...now all I have to do is make everyone else see it!
-
I can't believe what I am reading..this is terrible..poor, poor dog...awful!
-
there are too many unknowns with this scenario..I would maintain status quo for now.
-
more photos please!
-
wherever possible, I always try to acknowledge other dogs and their owners; not only do I sometimes feel a kindred spirit with the owner (we're in on the secret of how fab dogs are), I also want to acknowledge the fact that another person cares enough about their dog to walk it/take it to the vet etc...acts of love towards dogs by owners and others is something I want to encourage.
-
not all teachers like children; not all doctors love people..some are born this way and sometimes, interaction with animals/humans can prompt this attitude..
we can't generalise.
-
well, there are some horror stories here..certainly puts third world hunger in perspective, doesn't it.... :)
-
A slightly off target story...my little girl has been wearing an elizabethan collar (scatched nose) for a while..anyway, I am forever taking it off and cleaning it (disinfecting it)...so the other day I looked down and she had two brown nobbly bits on the edge of the collar, size of a five cent piece, and not thinking, I wiped them off with my fingers...yep..you guessed it...poo! Lovely!
-
My Labrador is far from thick... but she is a naughty bugger... I can see how the 2 could be muddled though. The only thing she learned at group training with 100% accuracy was that bumbags have food in them... *sigh*
She taught herself this particular trick...
T.
there's a lot of smarts in her eyes and she's gorgeous..
-
our endless love and devotion and ...new collars.
-
It's like my two have hidden reserves...can take them out the back garden and they'll do their business..then five minutes later we'll take them for a walk and literally within a minute one, or both of them is/are either pooing or peeing...where does all the extra come from?
Glad we're not alone!
