Sadly, dad had to say goodbye to his German shepherd, Dave, last week. Poor guy was 10, and his legs and hips had totally given up over the last 5/6 months. He had a great life though, but dad is really missing him. Spoken to him three times since last Tuesday when he was put to sleep, and he’s cried everytime. Anyway, here’s a couple of Dave, RIP fella.
Your dad has my biggest sympathies, we also have a long haired gsd called Scout whos about the same age as Dave, his back end is also gone, started quite a while ago but seems to have gotten worse quickly the last month or so, hoping to get a few more good months before the inevitable but who knows. I will be devastated when it happens, expecting it doesnt make it easier sadly.

Never mind the wiring... why’s the Rocking Horse shrouded over 
?
Wife’s prized Victorian rocking horse! Had it since she was little and recently restored so in the choice between it getting bleached by the sun again or having it covered in old (real) horse rugs so we can’t actually see or appreciate it, guess which won ?The Wookie said:

We have one, never ever seen sunlight. I do understand the ‘ that’s the perfect place’ for it. No good if it’s in the sun

Hi everyone. I am Milo. I have pinched Dad's login tonight.
I think I am a doberman but my stupid dad tells me I am a long haired chihuahua. What does he know?
Anyway, I have been here about a month now. It was all quiet for a while, but I wasn't sure i was being a good boy as mum and dad didn't seem to be too overjoyed all the time. Little did I know the reason.
So after about a week, a really skinny, emaciated cat turned up at the back door. To my horror they let it in. They made a right old fuss of it and I just couldn't understand it - a cat!
As it turned out, while they were waiting for me to leave my mum, this bag of bones went missing and didn't come home for 12 days. He must have been locked in somewhere because he was frantic for food and drank loads of water which he rarely did before.
But since then, as well as looking after me, dad has been gradually bringing the cat back to health feeding him little and often at first day and night. He is about 4 times the size of me now and carries really sharp knives in his paws, but as we all know when I turn into a proper adult doberman rather than this diddy chihuahua (even the vet agrees about that with dad about the chihuahua thing) I will sort him out once and for all.
Anyway, TLDR, here is a mugshot.
