Wooster is probabally 15 this year, we got him from Battersea Dog's Home back in Oct 1991, and he was about 2 then.

Just sleeps and farts now.

By the way Steve, phoned up about that holiday. Was quoted £1900 each for 6 days B&B (on budget, but want to go for at least 10 days) which takes it way over.

Maybe next year

No photo at moment.
Chips - Black German Shepherd/Lab cross
found by bin when approx 6 weeks old.
Called Chips because my son was on his way to the Chip Shop when he collected him.

He also farts a lot, sometimes he is very surprised when he is told off. (he gets the blame anyway!).

He is a complete coward and hides behind me when anything shocking happens. (so much for the guard dog!).

Next project is to try to train him to stay on the ledge behind my seat in the Griff. Then he can travel with me most places.

Hobo, your garden's flooded mate. Not an Eskimo by any chance?

He's a Bearded collie (my 4th!) they end up looking like this (you'll recognise the adult). Taken at a Christmas bash a few years back.

Hobo, are they Malamutes? Looking into getting a pair in the future to start some sledding with the AMWA and the AM Club of the UK.

I have a Beagle at the moment who is sadly on her way out, a bit worse for wear nowadays




Fantastic dogs you lot have, as well as cats it seems Excellent pictures too.

Yes they are Alaskan Malamutes.

I have two, a 4 month old bitch called Shadow & a 13 month old bitch called Blaze.

Brilliant dogs, but require a huge amount of looking after. I would only advice getting them if you have the time to put in.

Twice a year they shed hair (each dog approx. 1 bin liner full). Also tend to rip everything to shreds. Came home a couple of months ago to find they had ripped skirting boards off one of rooms & were eating them ?

Also, not the type of dog that can be trained like others.

Feeding also costs approx. £50 per week.

Hobo - nice one. Malamute, correct? We had two Shar Pei's when the wife and I started dating (they where hers). Because of their territorial tendencies we had to give them away when my little girl arrived...

...I've always wanted a Siberian Husky myself. The wife doesn't like the idea because of all of the shedding. I even have a name picked out - Lestat...

Maybe, one of these days...
