Awwwwwwwww.He's lovely.
I want one.
We lost our two dogs about three years ago within 2 months of each other (Molly and Megan)
Molly had died the day that I joined MSE hence Mollypolly (her nickname)
We have said we wouldn't have any more now the children have left home but I have a feeling creeping upon me for a little one (dog not child:D).
Going to have to have a read up on little doggies me thinks.;)

HP that was OUR secret - had the BRB out last night moving logs - mucho fun.

Also just ordered some plants from ebay (FOR RESEARCH honest) my chilli's aren't up enough and these ordered ones will give me an idea of size and quality cos I am going to sell my tomatoes and extra bits and bobs for about the same kind of price. (3 plants 1.50 5 plants 2-2.50) postage £1.50 - 2

They also don't post using any soil - which I approve of wholeheartedly.

Molly and Megan are nice names.

Peedie was supposed to be called 'biscuit' or something silly - but he was the runt of the litter and the man called him the peedie pup so it just stuck really he suits his name. Although everyone here thinks we are mad having a dog which is called 'small' - but south everyone likes his name.

We were really lucky we got him here from a KC registered breeder - about 10 miles away (a bargain at 200quid) they have fantastic temprements - the mum and dad were lovely and peedie came home smelling of bananas as the guy also has a couple pigs (who get fed old fruit from the local wholesaler) and peedie loved to romp around the mess. He needed a bath!!

The nice man only has 4 or 5 dogs altogether - but they are all lovely natured - we are serioulsy thinking of getting another one.

I like him he sleeps like a cat and will sleep happily on your lap or near you - he can be wrapped up in a towel after the beach and grabbed under the arm and yet he's pretty substantial (ie square) so he doesnt seem so little or yappy. He's a real 'people' lover of a dog.

i so want a sausage dog puppy but just can't see how we'll do it for a while, may have to wait until one of us retires which is way to far in the future.

been playing in the greenhouse and have had to wage war on some bloomin snails, they were massive and the bu99ers have worked their way through my pea seedlings! put some more in but the air was blue! i have run out of space on watering trays now. discovered why the aubergines have been reluctant to show their heads, my cats have been sitting in the tray, i've had words with them but there's no guarentees they'll behave.

I looked over the snail recipe and decided that it wasnt my cup of tea :eek:, although I did go out and pick (shells are so handy:rolleyes:)
about 40 snails :eek:and a few slugs :eek::eek: yesterday,
took them up the garden were the trees are
and
either they found a car/areoplane/hot air balloon/hoovercraft
or
some b!gg!r ate them , :eek:
'cause today there is just a plie of cracked empty shells,,,,,

,,,,,unless they were slugs all along and had me fooled.....:mad:

....darn the slippery suckers :rotfl:

HP - well done - methinks the birdies got them - didn't fancy the recipe much either

LT bad luck slugs, snails and cats

Just walked home from work - trying to use less petrol and walk the hound more - and lose some wieght so peedie and I hoofed it home. Darwin has been abandoned at work - he's a great but expensive 'mobile dog kennel' - I can't walk the dog to work unless I have a car there to put him in as he's not allowed in. Will try hard next couple weeks to get into the habit of walking.

Even locked darwin (as leaving him at college - but still it feels a bit odd here to lock him)

A friend of mine works in an office (albeit as part of a huge animal hospital) and gets to take her dog to work with her. He (the dog), sleeps under her desk and she takes him out at lunchtime to throw a ball around for him. He then is usually snoring happily under her desk come the afternoon.

Bliss I think being able to take your dog to work!
