    Among other things. So the landlord is flapping and paid you off

    Pretty much. Much nicer place and rent is cheaper too. The lights kept tripping in the other place too which is definitely not very safe imo.

    Herd test tomorrow. Hate the thought of it.

    I'd probably fail it if it was me being tested! Too much ink in my bloodstream.

    Your dogs ear is broken:D




    Number of questions to ask her whelan!

    1- Does she want a big dog or a small or in between?
    2- Will this be an outdoor dog, indoor or both?
    3- Active dog or a lapdog pet?
    4- Will she be the one walking, training, etc.
    5- How much moolah you want to spend?
    :D

    Having worked with animals for a fair number of years, incl being a dog groomer I've a good knowledge of most breeds!
    well watching her on done deal shes looking at king charles-because her friend has 2- ****zu - as my friend has 1:D- i'd say a small dog but wouldnt rule out a labrabdor... we have a dog outside but its more of a guard dog its a collie cross- not the one that attacked her, The one that attacked her was from dogs home down the road, we where told it was from a family and used to kids:mad::mad:

    a neighbour always told a story of finding a lovely dolls pram her parents had hidden away, she dreamt of it for ages before christmas, on christmas morning there was no sign of the pram:confused: until she saw the wagon next door with it..... her parents had been hiding it for them:D

    When you say stunted do you reckon they will come good with feeding and time or will they never get up to a good size?
