Not sure what money the lotus exige is fetching but as a quickish fun sports car that's the first thing I would be looking at. Bit more money for a fast everyday motor...... I dream about the RS5.

75kph obviously, because 75mph would be illegal......

the way the staffies really are......given a chance
Born Hunter replied to jigsaw's topic in General Talk
It is conveinience to not have to worry about a dog being a c**t while eating. Sometimes the dogs get big bones that would take hours to finish but I don't want them on it for 2-3 hours, I want to be able to take them off of the dogs with no issues. It's no big time consuming thing to sort out is it and probably save you aggro in the long run with having to feck about with a dodgey dog. But essentially, deep down I would'nt like or trust a dog that is supposed to be my companion that turned on me because I took food off of it. Like I said before, if it's okay for my dog to gaurd it's f -

Fair enough Jiggy, I personally would rather just check my dogs with regards to it and sort out anything that may occur. It's trivial enough. If I ever had a dog that would'nt come right then I very much doubt I would tollerate it for very long but I also doubt that would ever happen. And If I thought that by sorting an aggressive dog out was mentally breaking it I would have a serious sit down and head scratch. I don't see what the big deal is personally, when it comes to dogs it's like everyone is on some sort of crusade with their methods of dog handling. I've made plenty of f**k ups so -
Ya can put the tin foil away walshie, you'll get everyone excited. They would enforce it with those reg recognition cameras already on motorways. The same ones they use to catch poachers entering Lincolnshire, lol.

The west is dependant on it, without it everything would roll to a halt. I just don't believe the governments of this world are doing enough because they are using the worlds dependance on it like a dealer would a with addicted drug user so the whole "we're green!" attitude doesn't wash with me. And just to clarify, I'm no eco warrior either. saving the planet has no bearing on my choice of car.

So are people that use motorways suddenly gonna have to pay more or are those that don't suddenly gonna get a reduction? I suspect the former. What about people that only use motorways half a dozen times a year for a long run north or south? Will we have to buy a day pass? LOL. What if, like I have many times, you get fecking lost and take a wrong turning off of a roundabout and end up on a motorway slip road without the higher tax? Don't we already pay silly crazy tax on fuel.... f**k off road tax and let fuel duty cover all motoring related expenses..... the more miles you do or bigger gas g

My personal view would be that I wouldn't have that type of dog if I wasn't happy with the types behaviour. It'd be like stopping a spaniel from hunting or a greyhound from running, it's what they are bred for. But i don't see that as the same as a dog acting aggresively to it's owner over food. I just don't see it as acceptable behaviour as I don't see killing sheep as acceptable behaviour, albeit both 'natural' behaviours. If I thought it was damaging the dog in any way mentally i would reassess it but I really don't see it. I'm not fecking behaviourist, just see what's in front of me. Perha -

But if you did have a dog turn dropping it's head bearing it's teeth snarling at you when you got near it while it had a bone or food and then snapping at your hand when you went to take it would you consider it acceptable? If I understand you right you see it as pointless because you have never had a dog aggressively protect it's food? But what if you did? My parents 29" Greyhound was a right evil c**t with a bone, doing exactly that. It was a behaviour in part due to a life as a kenneled racer but I despise it in a dog and the bitch was tought different. Just wondering if you consider th -

I think the Yanks kill Coyote's simply because they are a pest and kill stock and cost farmers money ! How much damage wolves do to stock, I don't know, and I don't think they are legal game in most states, but I'm sure one of our Colonial Cousins will let us know. I think I would definately run coyote with dogs, and Dan has invited me out there whenever I want to go, but I wouldn't feel the same about shooting wolves, and I'm sure they dont run them with dogs ! Cheers. I dare say they hunt them for the sport as well. Wasn't it documented that Custer or Rossevelt ran wolves wit

We,re not talking about changing bedding we,re talking about feeding..............the one time of the day a dog gets to be " a dog " within the home environment and im going to come along and say " no stop that behaviour right now "........no way. I believe you can use a dogs intelligence both for and against you i dont feel i need to break a dog down mentally to get his respect.....if a dog doesnt have the intelligence in the first place to be able to give up a possession then he wont be around long anyway.......but giving up on his dinner,no i wont make a dog do that i dont think its necess -

Suppose the dog gets hold of something it shouldn't and starts to devour it, if the animal thinks that it can face you down when it is eating what are you going to do? If it's okay for the dog to square up to you over a bone is it okay with it's kennel as well? What happens when you need to change it's bedding? I understand what you are saying but aggressive possesiveness is something I wouldn't tollerate. A dog snapping after taking any amount of shit like tail pulling and generally being overly man handled is fair enough but aggressive possesiveness towards me isn't. -

I'm not saying I believe in bugging a dog constantly to 'test' it's steadiness but I do make a point of checking them in certain situation like eating. If a dog persistantly showed aggression it would be gone. Constantly pulling at a dog ears when it doesn't want it is one thing but the dog gaurding anything from me is 100% unacceptable as far as I'm concerned. JMO -

FFS Paulus, are you opening a bloody knife museum? What business you in? Any jobs going? LOL -
Don't particularly bother me, we don't get those sort of numbers though. If anyone has a problem with what I do on my permissions then I really couldn't give a f**k and tell them as much.

How old is teagan socks? Have you ever done any beating/shooting work with her out of intrest? I like to see pups behave like that, it gives you a bit of confidence if nothing else. I'm waiting for a pup out of a friends little lamping bitch but she didn't take last time and we are a bit worried she might be in the same boat as your teagan. I don't mind waiting though.

Ask yourselves what is 'recession'......... It's not bullshit, we are out of recession by definition! That's fact! What's bullshit is the general belief that getting out of recession will instantly fix everything and we will be as prosperous as we were in the late 90s/turn of the century.

Still, considering they're all so happy and civilised, it's not exactly low is it? LOL. I'm pretty sure it was only a tongue in cheek dig though anyway.

But they're happy Scot. Topping themselves with happiness. LOL

That's not really fair at all though is it? A tax based on house size. Just because a person puts there hard earned into a house means they should be taxed to f**k on it? Surely your house is just an asset so a much fairer tax would be an asset tax if that is what you are advocating? Then also a fun tax, anybody that spends there money on enjoyment should be taxed proportionally to their enjoyment. etc etc. Having a mansion tax is certainly not common sense.... It's another example of spitefull jealousy.
