Thankyou to all those with genuine thoughts and concerns about Flash. I must admit I gave up on the forum when I recieved some very hurtful coments by email from people who claim that they are "animal lovers" through this and another forum. - you know who you are there is no need for me to disclose names comments that include "The kindest thing to do would be to take him to the vet and I hope he looks you in the eye as the needle goes in."I was deply distressed by comments like these as genuine people would agree hence not checking in! therefore missing the very kind offer from Megan Le Fey. We have found alternative arrangements for flash and he is very happy. I feel the need to explain aswell that it wasnt that he was an inconvenience it was genuine and realistic concerns that I had with flash as I had lived through his jelousy of a baby before, and being 6 years on he is grumpier (typical old man lol) but certainly not slowing down like a lot of dogs at 13!
Once again thankyou to the genuine posters

Thankyou for your replies, it really isnt an easy thing for us to persue but I know how he was when our son was born and it took him a very long time to adapt, and now is 6 years older and grumpier I know in my heart he will not cope with a baby aswell. I will try and upload a photo, and have sent an email to poorpaws. I tried a while ago to seek help with another rescue centre but they said he was too old, didnt like cats so they wouldnt take him and the SPA would prob put him down and to keep him....knowing that he has nipped our son I cannot risk it with a baby aswell - please dont think us as evil, were sad aswell

Hi, we are desperately seeking a good home for our Jack Russel, he is 13 years old, good with other dogs!....not so good with cats or chickens. Older children not a problem but can be a bit grumpy with younger children when they pull him around. We have found that we have not got the time to give him that he deserves in his later years and with a baby on the way will have even less time. This is our last hope as if we cannot find him a good home then we will have to visit the vets, which will devestate us. If you have further enquiries please contact us.
Many thanks

Hi Ron,
Actually I am aware that I live in France, where they speak French!! I can speak Basic French, so teamed with someone who can maybe speak a little English, it may help to answer some questions that we have.
Oh and NO the carpenter didn't speak any English at all, so in future please do not presume! I was asking the question in relation to the wood as he gave a 10 year guarantee and said it was treated.
regards,

Can anyone recommend an English speaking Termite expert that would cover southern 47 ? We have renovated our property, and have just come across a colony in the garden, and also evidence in the house. All our wood has been treated with a preventative/curative before going into the house, but....
We had a local registered carpenter replace the wood in the roof and ceiling. If by chance we find them there, is he liable to redo the work?
Any advice would be gratefully received.

Can anyone reccommend an english speaking dentist in the Nerac/vianne area in Lot et garonne. Failing that will travel upto about 1/2 hr. Oh..and a dentist that will work with children - I know some doctors won't, don't know if its the same with dentists.
Many thanks

Hi,
someone has kindly given us a satellite box. They have said you can pick up a freeview card for 20euros. I have been searching but all I can find is ones for 50euros +. Can anyone recommend the cheapest place?
Many thanks

I have worked on Cheque Emploi recently, when I was asked for my social security number I gave a copy of my passport, which had my place and date of birth on it as this was what they needed. About a week later I recieved a letter stating my contributions, and another letter stating I needed to go to CPAM to be allocated a social security number and to take these two letters with me. This may differ slightly from your situation, but I would have thought that it would run pretty much the same.
Good luck

Thankyou to everyone for your help. After a bit of to and fro via email, I finally plucked up the courage to use my limited French and phoned orange (3972) and have managed to get our phones unblocked. With orange it is free to have the phone unblocked after 6 months of being with them - before that is 76euros!! Now its off to www.virgin.fr for two new simms.

HELP. Jack Russell needs a good home
in Animal Welfare, Rescue & Protection

It has to be said once again I DIDNT WANT TO PUT HIM DOWN! but with a baby due any time and the issues we had with him when my 6yr old was born we couldnt go through it again. It was easier with my son as a baby as there wasnt a young child there to let him out of a room if he was having 'time out' I cannot and would not risk a childs life. Now I dont know if you have experience with a Jack Russell!? when they go for something you cannot stop them , he is a dominant male. Now I love him to bits and it upsets and infuriates me when people judge me. Would you rather a dog rehomed or would you rather him bite(or worse) a young baby because it cried? - and yes he wanted to get to my son every waking moment for the first 6 or so months of his life, YES we dealt with it because we love him so much but cannot go through this trauma again, and neither could he! it wouldnt be fair to him. People make out that this was an easy thing for us to do but it isnt, he has found a home locally and it will cut me up when I see him next. Now I have loved him since he was 18 months old .....in fact I am so fed up with explaining myself to people who judge others I am not even going to bother finishing this posting.
Thankyou CHRISTINE ANIMAL, WJT, RUSSETTHOUSE, MEGAN LE FEY and VAL B for your helpful and constructive postings.
