...remember it's on tonight, and repeated on Thursday nights!
I loved the comment from Mick last week about the overweight Mastiff bitch..... "The only one who can't see that that dog is overweight is Stevie Wonder..." - Brilliant! What a classic! |

Anyone watch it tonight?
I had a gut feeling that the American Bulldog would end in disaster.
The Greyhound and Lakeland Terrier both did great though. |

i know what you mean about the American bull dog. i know the strength of them, we have one the comes to the kennels he was fine but then i think i must have shown weakness because now he goes for the lead and doesn't let go, i had him on the ground and ha still wouldn't leave it. but they are lovely big dogs.
you could see the pain the trainer was going through just suggesting the option. _________________ microchiping and grooming www.chipnclip.co.uk

It was painful to watch. However, I was glad the trainer had the courage to get them to face the truth. I was just surprised that they had had the dog from a puppy. It must have been so spoiled for so long. I hope they get a more manageable dog and get some training from the start next time. _________________ Regards,

i really wish people would do a wee bit of reasearch before getting a dog, you know, what it was used for originally etc. would maybe save a lot of heartbreak. i was in tears last nite watching. american bull dogs can be such lovely dogs, all the ones ive met have been really sweet. _________________ your cat will never annoy by barking at 3am, he wont attack the postman or eat the curtains, although he may climb them to see how the room looks from the ceiling... |

Glad Danny and Jack are getting better, and it's good that it's cleared up on it's own with them, better than antibiotics. How did Danny enjoy his birthday tea?! I hope Jack got a share! |

The birthday was a quiet affair as they were recovering from their coughs and sneezes. Danny managed to force down his fish and of course Jack helped him as Danny helps Jack with his in February!!! A game of 'seek sweets' soon sorted out the tripe sticks and jerky. We couldn't even walk with our pals in case they caught the lurgy!!
8 years old - seems like only yesterday - there getting all puppy broody again...... _________________ No one appreciates the very special genius of your conversation as the dog does - Christopher Morley |

Glad they both enjoyed Danny's birthday tea, Mary.
I know what you mean about it feeling like it's on yesterday since you got them......Molly is 5 next year and I remember the day we got her like it was yesterday. Doesn't time fly by! |

Sat down to watch with my stomach in knots cause the presenter hinted sommit was going to happen, it was a shame but I think the family already knew themselves he was gonna be aggresive and needed support to help with their decision in the end. _________________ paw prints on my heart |
