  1. I,m convinced that the running action of a dog has a bearing on how well the dogs feet hold up to wear and tear , some dogs ,especially dogs with heavy shoulders , seem to pound the ground with their front feet and use them as anchors , other types have a smoother action they lean into bends more , the front feet are used more as balances , there is less abrupt force exerted .I will always prefer a dog with good tight feet , but I do think there are other considerations as to why some feet hold up and others don,t .

  17. B o s u n yes mate in the 80s my comp won't let me type names it was a r n I e
  18. I admire your honesty. Still brave though. Any more heroics or was that it? To be honest mate ,I probably saved a dozen , it wasn't,t anything brave about it though ,you,v got the equipment and the training ,and to be brutally honest my own safety was always my top priority , the passer by who runs into burning buildings with no regard for himself , now that's a hero .
  19. Me too.....I worked on the Inshore Rescue Boat on the Mersey and have been a trained Lifeguard for about 27years....!! :D I remember a r n I e taking me out on that boat ,where. You there then mate .
  20. O.k ,picture the scene , burning building ,third floor ,two badly burnt unconscious men ,my mate picks one up ,over his shoulder and slowly carries him down a burning staircase ,taking care to protect him from flaming debris ,very brave man was my mate , I grabbed the other one by the ankles and ran down the stairs as quick as my legs would go banging his head on every step on the way down , my mates casualty died , mine lived ,and I became the biggest s h I t house ever to get a commendation.
  21. That's what I get ,risk my life daily ,walk nonchalantly in to burning buildings ,save countless lives . And all you pair of Mongols do is mock me .
