Who let the dogs out?

I might have known you would have a "little *****u" ;)

Would love to post pictures of Kayleigh and Baldrick our two Short haired German Pointers,Dogs i hope :lol: but im crap a posting pictures, far too difficalt for a Luddite like me.
Sorry Patrick, but your golf , spelling and punctuation just to mention a few, seem to be all crap as you suggested.
But I do hope you won't always be the worst 5/6 h/c golfer in Scotland . You have the makings of a reasonable 13 h/c, if you can find a cunning plan and practise more .:rofl: And i turned down a opportunity to sleep with Kayleigh , Shi tzu man
See you soon mate :thup:

What an awesome thread full of lots of nice doggies. Here's mine. He's called sweep and he's a show type cocker spainel and is 5 months old. He's got the zoomies as I'm typing this flying round the couch.

He looks a cracker Ads, that 1st picture is great. Winnie does the zoomies pretty regular. I usually find myself running round the lounge like Rocky Balboa trying to catch the chicken.
 
Not actually a dog person ('my' cat acted like one though!), though we did rescue a Wiemaraner from the needle back home who was 'interesting' but needed more than we could provide. Passed her on to a family with fully fenced property that let her in the house that had someone there to entertain her all day - bliss!

Mate has a (typically) mad, black Cocker named Zico! Starting to get on a bit, so that'll be a wrench, particularly for his kids. Other mates. back home, had a Retriever that could clear a coffe table with 1 swipe of his tail and used to bring home neighbours Sunday Roasts!

My Hockey Umpiring coach had a Ridgeback that would leap, from stationary, into your arms if you held them out - all 85lbs of him!!

I used to rate courses on how dog-friendly they were - by the number of bowls about. Wentworth 1, Walton Heath 2, but Muirfield had 4 by the Clubhouse and 1 at the 'top' of the course, by the 7th!
 
heres mine........

she doesnt look like this now with age and illness, poor soul probably only has days left, she's been a wonderful dog- breaks your heart

She's Beautiful - i love Newfoundlands - I was once privileged to watch them being trained to lifesave in Lake Garda they such lovely placid dogs who just adore water and humans.
It hurts when they start to slowdown - I lost one of my Retreivers 18 mths ago to Cancer and it feels like you'll never smile again - I got all the pictures I had of him and did a book of his life it makes you cry and then you realise what a gift a dog is and what they've given you - she wouldn't want you to be upset she trusts you to make the right decisions for her and thats why you get unconditional love in return. Its hard what you're going through but it gets better and the best way is to rescue an unfortunate in her memory.

Hahaha winnie looks lovely and very mischievous. A friend of mine has a cockerpoo and what you have described hers does exactly the same. Gorgeous little doggies that are surprisingly fast. Sweep loves grabbing the tea towel and doing a velodrome style circuit on the couch which obviously he thinks is great fun.
 
This is our little pooch, he is half devil incarnate/half butter wouldn't melt........



His name is "Flash" and he is the 2nd fastest thing on 2 legs (we all know StuC is when a wedding buffet has been opened).:whistle:

We got him from the rescue home in march last year, we think he was a xmas puppy reject.

He is a feisty so-and-so and isn't scared of well bigger dogs, think Fish but with straight teeth.:rofl:
 
Sorry about your news Cmac.

I know we're all different people, but we had to make the dreaded decision with our previous dog "Nelson" when he took a turn for the worse after being on chaemo for a few months. It was a very hard time but you will come through it.

We got Flash a few weeks later and whereas we'll always treasure our memories with Nelson, you can start to make new ones after that.

Sunningdale has one at the halfway hut.:thup:
 
We used to have dogs when I was a kid, well two Golden retrievers. Can't remember not having a dog until I was about 20.

Since we have been in our current house, we have had two black cats adopt us. The first one we had for over 15 years, and we vowed not to have another one after she died. Then about a year ago another black cat, Monty adopted us. Shame I am allergic to cats.:eek:

fat fingers and mobile phone and Pub don't mix dear boy. Ive a whole 0.9 to go back to 6 so thats the first 10 comps for next year sorted;)
 
This is Skylar. We chose her 6 months after we'd lost our previous Black Lab to a tumour at 8 years old. She's a very different dog to her predecesor. Very strong willed and confident.. She loves the kids and won't put up with anyone being a bit rough with them.. Can't keep her out of the water either..

Was that picture taken up at Haigh?
 
well my boy is in my avatar

Buster the 3 year old Springer Spaniel

First time i have had the breed, but i can say that he is a cracker of a dog. Quiet in the house, brilliant with my little toddler and as soft as anything.

Very intelligent, knows loads of tricks and is very obedient.

Then you take him into the woods for a run..........


:D

200 mph, covers every inch of the place, gets caked in mud, leaps into the canal and ponds.


Nose down, ar5e up and his tail wagging like a nutter

I have never seen him looked tired on a run, impossible to curb him but hits the floor with a thud, when he gets back in the house.

Hes my pride and joy and a mischievous little monkey. I would not have it any other way

Can be seen running amok over Haigh Hall plantations in Wigan most nights, with his wee pal Ziggy the Jack Russell
