Two blue dogs. ;D
Blue cattle dog Peppa (Pig) and blue Staffie Twiggie (the piggy).

Your Staffie looks as though it had the same problem as ours Bluey. She was a breed bitch chucked out of a puppy farm when she got too old to be used. She had Cushings disease and mange when we got her (No.1 Son works at a rescue center so we get to adopt the hopeless cases) Other dog is Rea the Disaster Dog also abandoned in Ireland.

And here they all are together, though the Collie cross is the only one left alive.....We aren't terrible owners; we just adopt the old ones no-one wants to re-home (honest)

Fezzik is the Black and white and Chade is the mackerel
QuoteYour Staffie looks as though it had the same problem as ours Bluey.
Staffies are apparently prone to skin problems, with the 'blues' being most prone. Twiggy's is an allergy to something or other, currently kept under control with medication and diet until we can find the culprit.
He's a bit shy....

Good old Chuffy's; other forums post pics of boobies and we post pics of nice furry animals :)
Miss my old Lab terribly......

Bounder :(
Was that really you? (and your dog of course)
Its a very old YouTube video that did the rounds a few years ago.....trouble is I miss my old Lab so much that posting a picture would affect me for quite a while.
We left him with friends over Christmas (Four years ago now) to spend some time with my son. When we landed in Bristol, my other half had a message on her phone to say that he had been rushed to the vet with a ruptured spleen. There were no flights with seats to get back to him....he died on Boxing Day....on his own!
Sorry to post such a story...but seeing all your pics just reminds me how much I still miss him.
Bounder :(
My other half paints animals and this water colour does show him how I do like to remember him at the age of five lying in the garden of our house in Kent:-

True BD, but petting
them won't end up costing us a house, pension, etc, etc, etc, ... :D
Sad story about your dog Bounder, I know how attached we can become to our 'children', especially at the end.
Ah, the infamous Fez Fitz, that depositor of fur on pant legs :D
And now, what passes for a salute from my mutt:

Pip, pip,

Ok, last one.
There is a bar in Narita called the Jet Lag Club (I'm sure you remember it eh Bounder? ;D), owned by a former Sabena flight attendant and his Japanese wife. One of the regulars there is his dog 'Inop', a miniature greyhound. Inop like to drink from the drip tray below the beer taps and sleep it off on the bar. He is also very fond of popcorn and will jump from the floor right onto the bar to get said treat. He's friendly enough although a bit aloof, possibly because he's hungover a great deal of the time :D.

A touching post and tribute Bounder. Proves that although we are steely-eyed mean lean killing machines in the air, we are softies at heart when it comes to our furry companions.

Our three flea bags are all camera shy, hence my ugly mug in supervisory mode. All three are rescues, the little one, Beanie. after 6 weeks in the vets being rebuilt. The two big ones, Busta and Bella are brother and sister.
