Thanks all for the pointers & links (don't think I'd seen those particular sites) :thumbsup: . In a quick scan through I found a few interesting names but nothing I can see myself shouting at a receding hound rear end for years to come :lol: I'll have a more leisurely look later, there's got...
I'll be going to pick up my new pup in 5 weeks :D
For the past 3 weeks I've been trying to think of a name for him. I've been asking people, browsing websites, books, even my CDs looking for inspiration and I havn't even got a shortlist of sort-of-OK names never mind anything I REALLY like...
Hi Dee :)
You asked for it....
from the visitcumbria website
Workington is an ancient market and industrial town at the mouth of the River Derwent. Some parts of the town north of the River Derwent date back to Roman times. It was in the 18th century, with the exploitation of the local iron...
Gee thanks :D .
I'm based on the Solway coast in the west of Cumbria, in " an attractive coastal town on the Solway estuary, with sweeping views, shoreline walks, golf links, coastal sailing, lively pubs and memorable summer festivals. Here you can experience a maritime history of two...
For no particular reason here's some more pics :)
At the beach
Enjoying the long grass up in the fields
No idea what the joke was! :unsure:
A couple of minutes ago by the computer
Dave.
Thanks for the compliment but those are just lucky shots, must've taken 50+ photos of grass and tails this morning just to get 4 usable ones.
Just keep trying, sure you'll get some eventually. :D .
Dave.
You're right, he does look smaller in those pics. Wonder why that is :blink: .
After a bit of confusion (Ben thought the tape measure was a lead and got excited!) he measures about 22.5" at the shoulder.
Got some tablets (salazopyrin) from the vets, and i've been told togive him a light diet (pasta, rice, chicken) and some natural yoghurt.
Have you had any experience of this? Gonna do a search, I'm sure sure I've seen a colitis thread on here before.
Dave.
I've actually been thinking about some sort of activity for Ben. Any idea where to find out about that sort of stuff? Tried searching the internet but couldn't find anything remotely local :( .
GOOD NEWS
The dressing's off, and his pad is healing well :) . It shouldn't stop him for much...
Most of all though, Ben loves running
ALL THE TIME.
Chasing birds, butterflies, rubbish blown by the wind,...the wind. Chasing and being chased by other dogs. He's got more stamina than his new friend Togo the Husky, who Ben tires out before finding something else to run after.
I like it...
Ben's been with me now for just over two weeks and over that time I've learned a couple of things...
The huge ears, on rare occasions, are collapsable,
He loves the beach
where he likes to stalk and pounce on defenseless rocks :blink:
He also spends alot of time staring at things I...
Weasel looks great, your description sounds EXACTLY like Ben :thumbsup: . Do you have any more pics for "guess the cross"? I keep getting asked if Ben is "one of them Egyptian dogs" :blink: .
Here's a gratuitous scenic pic of Ben having a damn good run around instead of yanking my arm off...
