    Many thanks everyone. What a day I've had. Friends telling me I should lock Emily in a crate in case she attacks me - she slept on my bed cuddled up against me as she has all week for at least part of the night - all evening last couple of nights. No agression to me whatsoever and I feel that I am safe with her. Today, she haven't had much of the pushy behaviour towards my two so not so bad there

    But I have been trying to sort it all out. The lady she bit got on to me and wants her destroyed. She has changed her tune on how it happened, forgetting that she repeatedly said to me that it was her fault for putting her face so near a fear agressive dog, now saying that Emily had tasted blood and would always now bite to get more blood (totally untrue or police dogs would be after blood all the time) So we have chased up contacts we have and sorted a placement out for her. Under instruction from a lovely lady from Stoke area who deals with many dogs with behaviour problems, I sent a message to the lady saying that Emily had been signed over to this Stoke rescue for assessment and possible rehabilitation so ownership is now transfered to them, giving her full details so she could ring them or give these details to police if she gets them involved. Just have to arrange transport for the poor baby and they will take care of her. She will NOT be destroyed. If she can't be rehabilitated, they will find a place for her where she can still be happy, but not in a home

    I can't take her out for walks now as if anything happened I would be totally at fault - plus of course not forgive myself - but luckily she has started to use the garden more
    I am so sorry this has happened , but glad you have sorted out another home for her x
    I refused five subs recently, only £15 refunded, still up on the collection so I let it go.
    Does anyone know if, for instance, a £30 shop is paid for using £20 of evouchers how is the refund made? I recall there used to be a problem when recycling.

    Second favour please, as I'm up near the £100 for March, can I do a collection, check on price promise and not claim until April?

    TIA.

    They get refunded into your bank account now i believe and yes you can check claim in april hth

    3dogs, so sorry you have had to go through this with Emily. That lady is so stupid, dogs do not get more nastier if they taste blood, never heard of anything so stupid. Hope they keep you informed how she is though, once she gets a new home.

    What a glorious day today has been, met up with my brother and the children, and went and sat in the park all afternoon.

    Susan, I'm sorry you've been driven into a corner over poor Emily and this stupid woman. How ridiculous of her to come out with saying that. She has told somebody else and she's only repeating what they've said.

    It's not fair Emily now has to leave as you were doing so well with her too. I guess sending her onwards now will be much better for her rather than be caged and not walked with you. My heart goes out to you Susan, I know how dedicated you are xx
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    Big disaster! Sharpies in stock for a C&C! I think I'll have to reject them on the grounds that they don't have a shower holder. Not my day...

    Mine were in stock too - not sure why I would need 10 shower holders and they didn't quiz me on it, but they were very apologetic that it was missing compared to the website :o.
