Christine Animal Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Thank you Sweets, thank you for that. He doesn't want to let him go does he, he wants their close relationship to go on forever.For those who haven't seen it, I just came across this beautiful film which explains so well the extraordinary relationship we have with our best friends. It's as if we are made for each other.The Secret Life of the Dog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russethouse Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 This is a really sad story:http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2186411/Rottweiler-attacks-Lesley-Banks-dies-dog-bite-refusing-treatment-case-pet-down.htmlMy friend lost a lovely dog a few weeks ago, the dog was so loved by those that knew her that my friend got bereavement cards from people that had known her...This week we are going to Battersea Dogs Home to pick up another dog for her ( this is after a couple of visits to the dog and a home visit by the organisation ) both dogs were/are Rotties Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christine Animal Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 What an awful story. She should have said a stray dog bit her while she was walking hers.I remember you mentioned your friend had a Rottie. Sorry to hear she has lost her. I hope the next one will be just as special.

Russethouse Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 Christine, I went to the dogs home with my friend and I have to say I thought of you! We visited the branch at Old Windsor, talk about upmarket, modern buildings and facilities all set in lovely grounds, so you can take a dog for a walk, take it into a one of several enclosures so you can see what it's like off the lead etc...several rooms for introducing dogs etc..When we were there professional photographers were taking pics of the dogs for the web site which they said they did every fortnight, I guess as volunteers.My friend went back to see the dog and took her grandchildren with her, no problems....so hopefully all will go well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christine Animal Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Poor baby and he has such a happy face. Our American Staffordshire who died a few months ago had one back leg missing. He used to pull doors open using one front paw, which meant he was only standing on two legs (the same side). He had a tremendous chest and shoulders as he used his front legs so much. It's amazing what they can do and how they adapt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
