  1. and unwanted cats is prob a close second lol,
  2. id have kicked the f****r out of it,gently of course
  3. there is no best one imo,a pocket full of different types is always your best bet,what works well one night may not work the next,the foxcall uk one,black plastic type you bite down on is pretty good though
  4. i originally heard years ago that it was common in collie types but don't know how true it is

  6. how very true,the if only, and the to far brigade,make me f*****g laugh sometimes,good luck with them anyway mate
  7. lol been offered some but turned them down thanks for the advice watchman & gnasher, i'm after fish that are a joy to watch but realy do have my heart set on a red tail shark. i have seen a small red tail in a community set up which is ok to start but as it grows it will become territorial to a certain area in the tank,slow moving fish will become its target for fin nipping ,one of the ways you can get around this is to frequently move rocks and other ornaments you have in the tank around so that it cannot establish itself in one area,ok for a little while but not fool proof,also

  9. Rear dewclaws Canids have four claws on the rear feet,[4] although some domestic dog breeds or individuals have an additional claw. A more technical term for this fifth claw on the rear legs is hind-limb-specific preaxial polydactyly.[5] Several genetic mechanisms can cause rear dewclaws; they involve the LMBR1 gene and related parts of the genome.[5] Rear dewclaws often have no phalanx bones and are attached by skin only.[ found this if it helps a lad i know has got a whippet/lab/collie,ugly little critter and having dew claws on its back legs dont help none either
  10. The woman who is the dog warden for rotherham council is always trying to rehome staffys them and bull cross lurchers are one of the most poular dogs in s.yorkshire rescue centres due to to meny getting bred. with mugs willing to pay upwards of £500 im not suprised
  11. as above,also good advice
  12. I don't know anything about Fish but I'm thinking of getting some soon. I seen some lovely Guppy's down at a pet shop near me. There was one in particular on it's own that was a lovely Blood red colour but wasn't shiny, It had a big fanned tail and I was stood there watching it swim around for a good few minutes. Very similar to this one it was - Are Guppy's easy to keep? And do they last a long time if looked after properly? very easy to keep and breed readily the males organ is visible and will be seen waving it around in front of any female within range although without
  13. if your just starting out i would go for fish that are relatively easy to keep,you need to decide if you want a species tank or a community tank,this will then give you an idea of what fish you can and cannot keep together. as a beginer i would advise things like,guppys and,platties,with plenty of weed in the tank these will breed readily and give birth to live young,the list is endless for community fish get out there and see what takes your fancy. i used to keep a lot of the american cichlids but you do need a large tank as they will become territorial,good luck with what ever you choose b

  20. just wondered if anyone has any experience of both these xs,iv had bull/grey in the past but my current bitch has a touch of whippet in her,has anyone noticed anything different between the two,working ability,behaviour or anything really noticeable that may spring to mind,i know maybe a daft question but my bitch just seems a bit more flighty(if that's the right word lol)bit more up on her toes as it were,not just a running meat head like all the others iv had,i will say she was a bit of a slow starter but now runs like a seasoned dog, no f*****g about and clever as well i know dogs are rarel
