    No i think it would look lovely- one of the pictures on the link shows a dog with a jumper in very close colour to himself -looks great.

    You could always get two colours of the first one?

    Or get the fleece one as a backup?

    Mmmmmmmm!! Firemen!

    Well, I had my fire check! They rolled up in a massive fire engine! I had warned my neighbours that they might, and not to panic!

    They were very good! Interesting, because although I already had 4 smoke alarms and a heat detector, they identified an area that they considered wasn't covered properly, and promptly fitted a free, 10-yr battery operated smoke alarm in that spot. I had most other eventualities covered, (after all, I AM a warrior!), and had some questions, which they answered. Very nice and very reassuring.

    No damsel-distress practice, though! :(
    And no ride in the fire engine with a go on the siren.:(

    (Mind you, I have already been in a fire engine!)


    Oh LIR, I did smile at your dog-onesies! Until I clicked on your link, I was imagining dog dog in a MessedUp-style dinosaur onesie!
    And those doggy bobble hats! :):)
    Now I know that when I get my rescue greyhound, I'll have to get a doggy wardrobe as well!

    This is the regular etiquette repost.....

    Here is the suggested THREAD ETIQUETTE. By following this etiquette, all posters, whether new or existing, will feel safe, unpressured and respected..

    - This is a thread for support. We have discovered some good friends on here, but we promise always to welcome and include new people, and not to be cliquey.

    - People may make suggestions to help each other, and might even ask if the suggestions were helpful or have been carried out, but we'll really try not to nag each other or put too much pressure on.

    - The normal board rules about sexism, racism, homophobia etc. apply, but if we are careful we should be able to discuss almost anything without breaching board rules - so far we have discussed subjects ranging from child abuse to incontinence!

    -If someone thinks that too much pressure is being applied, they can post the trigger word PENGUIN and flag up the fact that they believe there's a potential for someone feeling too nagged to do something. ANYONE could post PENGUIN if they felt there was a danger that suggestions were being enforced too much.



    - If you think something might be a PENGUIN, please post something like the green bit which follows.

    "I would like to discuss something to do with [insert subject here], but I am concerned that this might be a trigger for some people. Is everyone OK if I post about that?"

    Then LEAVE IT for at least an hour to allow people to respond. Then, when you post, repost the word PENGUIN above the discussion. Then post the penguiny bit in white! And the phrase END OF PENGUIN when you have finished.

    It will look like this. You will be able to see the white text if you highlight it or if you quote it (so please don't quote a penguin!)

    PENGUIN

    This is a penguin. A nasty, crotch biting penguin (CBT).
    It isn't really, you can look

    END OF PENGUIN




    IMPORTANT: It has been ascertained that some posters to this thread have found that there are certain subjects which act as triggers, precipitating a worsening of their condition.
    To protect these posters, you are respectfully requested NOT to discuss these subjects on this thread:-

    Religion. (Please note: it is recognised that everyone is entitled to their beliefs, and we respect those beliefs. It is only because of the fact that religion does act as a trigger for some posters, that we exclude it from discussion.)
    N.B. Please don't even mention the name of the religion.

    The afterlife. The reason for this is explained in this thread by one poster, and there will be others for whom this is a trigger.

    We ask and thank you for your co-operation in this matter.


    .........:starmod:.....................................................................:starmod:................

    It should be pointed out that if anyone is feeling very distressed or close to a crisis, they do not have to worry about what they are posting, or whether it is a penguin for someone else or not. In a crisis situation, just post! We wouldn't want anyone to feel that they couldn't ask for help in case it's a penguin! The penguin thing only applies to a general discussion situation.

    - More suggestions please.............We stress that we are suggesting that we AGREE some Thread Etiquette to HELP people who might feel anxious about posting, we are not trying to IMPOSE rules, just relating this to facilitating groups, so that people feel safe and able to participate as fully as they can.
