    I'm not very good at being diplomatic/tactful so I resisted writing along these lines.
    Now I'm so glad I did as your post has summed up my view far better than I ever could.
    For me, the best post this week.
    Thank you

    Agreed, GarethGas. And - even if the folks under discussion are "undeserving" for whatever reason (and let's not forget that no-one TRULY knows what goes on behind the closed doors of others' households) - I am sure that such cases are very much in the minority. I am only a lively young girlie-girl - but I will ALWAYS be happy and, indeed, proud to give to the British Legion and wear my poppy.

    To sum-up: http://jasper-thedogsblog.blogspot.com/2008/10/saturday-11-november-2006.html

    Thank you PMDUK.

    Not necessarily off-topic. Jasper has proved (please don't ask - too personal :( ...) that he'd, freely and willingly, give up his life to protect the innocent and helpless of ANY species, like most decent people - and right-minded dogs - would.

    But thank you once again. xxx

    Looks like, do you mean...? Certainly NOT a Staffordshire Bull Terrier (possibly apart from the hairy face and the tail though, hehehe...!) x

    Can't go far wrong with a tail. Something to store your ring-doughnuts on, if nothing else. ;)
