  Why, what was wrong with the pastry?!

Oops! Sorry folks spelling mistake there... as you have probably noticed it shouldn't be Their it should be They're.

Thank goodness for that! The Epicerie Barenton are re-open after the birth of their new baby daughter. Have just been there and they have some wonderful things as usual, the scotch eggs are fantastic albeit perhaps not that fantastic for my figure haha! Took a friend that has never been before and she couldn't believe how much choice there was and the quality, apparently she will definately be a returning customer. Also we were informed that they will be doing Curries again starting next week however these will need to be ordered. As you can imagine thats my order already in then! Happy eating folks![:D]

Hiiya, Not at the moment however I will ask around and if I come up with anyone I will let you know. Thanks

Hello Rob Roy, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. It does seem to sound like bloat and as you have said he did used to wolf his food down! I had a dog that was like that at one time, however I bought a food bowl stand so it was higher and it seemed to help him and I have used it ever since. Lewis is pretty food obsessed and eats fairly quickly and if I put his food on the floor he really does bolt it down so I stick to the stand and he calms down and takes more time. The stand allows a larger breed dog to be stood fairly straight so they are not hunched over a bit like the difference us humans have between eating at a table and eating from a tray on our laps, helps with the digestion the more upright we are so I suppose it follows for dogs too. Anyway I really hope Billy enjoys running around Rainbow Bridge and you take comfort from that. Right I'm off to give Lewis an extra cuddle now.

Framboise, What a lovely place for him to rest. When the time is right I am sure another doggie will find you. A friend told me this after I lost Morse last year and I told her I was never going to have another dog! And just look what happened Lewis did just find me.[:D] Take care, hugs and best wishes to you[kiss]

I have to agree with Chas,  if it's instant it has to be Carte Noire[:)]

Framboise, Thinking of you at this sad time.[:(] At least he enjoyed a wonderful life with you and I know you will miss him. Take care of yourself, sending you big hugs and Lewis wants to send you big sloppy kisses. [kiss]

Magnolia, Lewis and I love you[kiss]  Well done you, hope you all enjoy many happy years together.

Lewis and I are crossing all our fingers toes and claws in hope.[kiss]

I'm with pauline another soggy keyboard ! Christine once again you say it all,please please help these unwanted dgs especially some of theolder ones as they are harder to find homes for. I have to say since finding Lewis he has put a smile back on my face to see him happy and running around...well running as far as he can cos of his back end! However with the excercise he is getting and the joint supplements there is the start of some muscle there so he's walking and running now.

Great pics Christine, PLEASE Please please will someone give this lovely girl a forever home, she looks so lovely.[kiss]

Awwww poor girl, I hope I don't see her as she would be an awfully long way from home up here!! However I really hope someone spots her soon and lets her family know where she is, they must be sooo worried. I will keep my fngers crossed she is found and re-united with her family soon.[:(]

Awwww he is gorgeous!![kiss]  Unfortunately Lewis doesn't like other dogs so no more for me I'm afraid. [:(] Please will someone give this lovely looking boy a forever home?!

No problem Magnolia, I meant every word.[kiss] If Joy does end up staying with you I can't think of a better home for him especially after all he has suffered. To see the video of him playing and that wonderful waggy tail brings tears to my eyes and a huge lump to my throat, I really don't understand why no-one has taken him yet! However as I've already said if he ends up staying with you then he is one very lucky boy.[:D]

They are the same options I got told and like you the first two were definately no-no's! Perhaps it's like most other things in France different departments different rules. Anyway you have done the best for this poor little girl and I applaud you for taking her in and getting her looking so lovely and being able to find here a new home. Well done, the world needs more humans like you[kiss]

Magnolia, well done for finding her a new forever home.  However I totally understand why you have mixed emotions as when I found Lewis he was in a similar state and also had nothing to identify him. I was told I would have to wait a month befor I could officially claim him and have him chipped even hough he was staying with me at the time. Unfortunately even though we put an advert in the local paper informed all the local vets,gendarmes, mairies, put a notice on the rescue site etc etc no-one has turned up for him,so he will be staying with me.[:D]

Awwwwwwww she looks so cute[kiss]  Please someone give her a new home.

Thanks for sharing those photos Magnolia they are lovely. The video is absolutely wonderful he looks so happy bless his heart, Please will someone give him a forever home![:'(]

Thank for sharing that pic Christine, looks like one very contented doggy! hey and look at that shiny coat.[kiss]

Such happy eyes!! Well done to the family that rescued him,it just goes to show there are some wonderful people out there.[kiss]

Awwwww,  Wow so many poor dogs with wonderful new homes it's such wonderful news. Well done to all[kiss]

Christine, He is gorgeous[kiss]  If only I could help however as you know I've only recently got Lewis and so far he doesn't seem very good with other dogs so unfortunately I am unable to help.[:(] Hopefully someone (possibly Limousin Lass[;-)]) will be able to take him. Nice to see the new kennels.   Oh and well done to Lisa for taking the old boy on.[:)]

OMG what a way to start the day sobbing like a baby lol. So lovely though, thanks for sharing that Magnolia.[kiss]

Christine, You're not the only one in tears lol! What a wonderful dog, just goes to show how intelligent they really are.
