    Great thread! The simple days before computers for all kids, eh? I must say I find crows very interesting and clever birds.
  2. littlefish
    Excellent! Loads of action in those pictures. Got any more to show us?

    Yes i do. the point is the dog is a physical deterrent, as well as an early warning device. Just like having an alarm, but with a sharp end To a point, but is a guard dog immune to poison etc from these theiving filth?

    Woke up to a winter wonderland again today so I went out in the garden again with the camera and took this pic.

    That's a lovely picture, did you take it through the window? The little robins are so bold!

    Leanne - in the interests of your child's wellbeing, find a new good home for the dog immediately.

    Hope you got them patched up ok and not too expensive. Are they both bitches? I think bitches can be really nasty, neither likes to back down in a scrap.

    I think your point about the wild dogs is that they probably have a shorter life span overall and it is survival of the fittest in the environment available. All wild animals fulfill their role as long they live long enough to reproduce and continue the species. Regards feral type dogs who hang around human settlements, they might not do too much actual hunting, most of thier food might come from scrounging in rubbish from the humans. The function bred dogs that we aim to keep are nurtured, trained and hopefully wormed etc in order to thrive successfully for a long time, rather than just su

    Looks like good fun there. The wee lads look so proud of their dogs!

    Good luck with it. Is there a lot involved with importing from abroad like that with it being outside the EU? Does it have to be quarantined etc?

    Have your parents had dogs (terriers in particular) before? Perhaps they should join a local dog training club for help and to get the pup socialised before he turns into a little big boots.

    FAO Kay Hi Kay. Iv'e been trying over the last few days but I can't get mine to magnify in the centre of the picture like yours does on the coin pic. I still see the green square on mine? What are the numbers along the side of the screen meaning, does it matter what they are? Thanks

    Leanne - do you go on any other forums?
  15. littlefish
    Responding to the nonsense she posts only appears to encourage her to post even more

    Oh no! Just seen thread and my heart sank.............

    Always liked the look of that Ryfud dog! I no longer take my dogs to public parks because of irresponsible twats like this. It happened again last week - chavette pushing a pram, sucking on a fag and two out of control large dogs. They think it is ok to let their dogs harass others, especially if those other dogs are smaller and likely to come out worse off. I swore my next dog was going to be a Rottweiler!

    Well said. My neighbour died as a result of a drunk driver. Xmas is a sad time for her daughter and granddaughter left behind.

    Brilliant Kay! I'll try that and get some pics up to show my progress. Cheers!

    Thanks Kay. At the minute all I have managed to do is point and shoot! I find it hard to make head or tail of instruction booklets and would much rather showed me in person. I must try again and look for supermacro.

    Hi all I just got my first digital camera. It is a Canon Sureshot A470, I am still learning to use it and trying to get to grips with Photobucket etc for resizing. I hope these come through ok! They were taken in my garden this morning. One is of a frosted web in ivy and the others are of a shrub with berries which is frequented by lots of small birds. Finger crossed these come through!

    I love the pic of your dog. He looks fit for a 10 year old. I have one very similar........his face used to be tan - but now it is mostly white. Still a feisty little one though!

    Spaying changes the hormone levels so it can be harder to keep a speyed bitch slim, same as it's harder for a woman with kids to stay slim. That isn't an excuse though! I'm just saying that it is more difficult. It can also change their coat. Someone I know who works his rescue springers found their coats went sort of rusty coloured and more fluffy, but since swimming them in the sea every day they look better, he reckons its to do with all the female hormones washed into the sea from the pill. Could be something in that. A surprisingly large percentage of spayed bitches suffer from i

    I don't understand how spaying can make a bitch fat. Surely correct feeding and exercise keeps it right. My speyed bitch is lean and fit as a fiddle.

    Not a dig at Blackknight, but how much would most people expect of a dog that has went through the experience of moving to a new handler and home? I would imagine the dog might need a while to settle into his new home and build some sort of bond with a complete stranger? I think if I had a strange dog for a week I would be more concerned with checking that it is stockbroken and able to respond to recall etc?
