thought it be fun to tow him around but but now weighing 8stone 5 not a chance as you can see i had to cut the roof off as he was to big even lol

 

Nice staffy, gota love them.

 

Heres our Oscar, 6 1/2 stone 5yr old softy as far as we know he is a retriever/german shep cross.
this was taken at the weekend after his physio swimmimg for his cruciate liguement things but he is doing really well

 

Here's my nutter he's called Barney.

 

****ing love that doggie rob !

 

cheers mate hes got such a character looking at your avatar pic i am guessing you use to have a rottie or just like them ?

 

Does anyone have a dog and work a 9-5?
I would love a dog but couldn't commit to getting home at lunch for a walk etc. Would a 'less energetic' dog such as a british bulldog be bothered by this, from what i have read they are lazy gits who get tired from over-exercise so would morning/evening walks daily suffice? Would get pampered by me and the mrs when we got home thats for sure, just weighing up whether its fair on the dog or not

 

Greyhound, believe it or not!

"This is fun"

 

Dogs are sociable animals. It may not be a case of just excersise, it's how they react for being left for 8 hours.

We've been able to do it with dogs in their old age, who are content to sleep and don't notice being left so much.

We're in the same boat. Desperately love having dogs but can't take one on whilst we work all day

It does help a bit that I borrow my little Pikey Terrier at weekends and our cat thinks it's a dog!

 

True, thats why i was contemplating a british bulldog, given their reputation for being rather less energetic. Wouldn't contemplate a collie or jack russell type as they are always wanting to play non stop from past experience. Anyone on here own a british bulldog and can comment?

 

Dallas, a year ago at least,age 6.

My dog's a more suitable weight. Weight makes all the difference uphill! On the flat, towing the trailer's like having a giant wind brake!

She likes a cake stop too

 

I have two, one jack russel cross pomerainien ( little fox lookin things)4.5yrs, and a staffie now 18mths

when the staff arrived 10wks old:




Needless to say the smaller dog proper rules the roost WIll post somemore of the staff, he's a little bigger now

 

This is Sam 3yr Long Coat German Shepherd.
I've had him 2yrs, he's a rescue dog, pref owner was too ill to look after him.

BasketBall lasted 30mins before it was in the bin



So many lovely dog's credit to you all.....sad to read about the losses, took me 11yrs to come to terms with my first dog lose.

 

Yeah, we do - thankfully we have a dog walker that we trust so she still gets her 'lunchtime' walk every day during the week if we're not in. Sometimes I'm home before the dog if I'm back early as well. Think its good for her as she runs around in a pack with a few other dogs, so gets to burn off energy and socialise, etc. which is important as well.

I think she would go a bit stir crazy in the house all day - I probably would myself

 

Here's the little one training Dave, keeping her occupied whilst the mrs did the hoovering
