    And going completely off topic again for a moment or two, I need ideas for this years doggy christmas card.
    We've had santa, the christmas fairy, the christmas tree decoration and the winter woolies (complete with reindeer earmuffs.) I'm looking at things I can do ideally from the poundshop. Pondering a christmas elf if I can find a green waistcoat!
    Any better ideas?

    (And yes, I've already been told I need to get a life. :rotfl:)
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    Try the link earlier - had loads of jumpers on there, I only looked at a half dozen or so and will go thru them all tomorrow (after boring chores are done :o), think you will probably find a nice green one on there :D

    Edit: Please don't get a 'life' - you could end up being incredibly boring...

    They have dog clothing in Pets at Home for a fiver plus, don't seem to be on the website tho.
    Oh dear.......... :o I actually like some of the bits on her site... fortunately they are all for girl dogs and Jim's a boy - he's a real hard nut for a poodle and is known as our security dog... :D It really wouldn't do for him to be seen in pink... It would damage his street cred.. :rotfl:

    I did actually buy him a 'sensible' waterproof coat today - and boy did we need it with all the rain! But going back to topic (I don't mind the off topic ones either .. :D), as much as I loved his hoodie today, is there anywhere I can get some cheaper? Once I had paid out on carriage, it worked out just under £23 - not alot really I guess and it is good quality, but I would like to get him at least a couple more and I am supposed to be watching my outgoings!!

    Try the Range FC I get TJ`s winter coats from there. Being a white dog I use a coat more for keeping the under carrage clean Being low to the ground he does get a black tum most days in the winter. But hey whats a bit of muck between freinds.lol. They have a good selection.
    Chris n TJ x
    RIP TJ. You my be gone, but never forgotten. Always in our hearts xxx
    He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog.
    You are his life, his love, his leader.
    He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart.
    You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion.

    Just had to pop back in to say that courtesy of Poundland I now have a very fetching L'il Elf green and red striped hat with lovely pointy ears attached.
    Pooch is packing her bag and preparing to leave home as I type.:D

    Now, where did I put the telephone number for the RSPCA as this sounds to be the worse case of cruelty to a dog ever heard of in here:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
