    god i wish! Could never afford them in a million years, and erm....i support the toon more than the mackems lol but being from essex originally i guess i dont have to support the town i live in ha ha.
    I'll prob end up taking loads of silly piccies of me and my OH, that's what we usually end up doing when we go out lol though being a bit more formal i guess we might have to behave, a little!

    not anymore, but i used to breed chihuahua's. I didnt enter them myself due to my arthritis, but had a handler. They never did well but i didnt care cos we got there at least lol.
    They only got there as the qualifying shows we went too were small and the bigger well known breeders didnt go lol

    I still have one chihuahua I bred, she is 2 now, and i wouldnt part with her for the world! She's totally my baby girl lol, spoilt rotten, but loved to death. She is so much company to me, and she even tells me when my blood sugars are going low, she seems to just KNOW and sits on my lap with her head down whining until i realise myself whats happening and get my glucose tabs etc....

    but i could harp on about her for days lol, i wont though!

    If you got there that's pretty darn good!!

    That's really interesting what you say about her knowing about your blood sugar and stuff. I remember we did a little bit in uni about dogs being used not only as guide dogs but also for that reason and for epileptic patients, as the dogs could detect subtle changes prior to a seizure, before even the patient knew. Was really interesting :)

    Think we all spoil our dogs, no matter how hard we try to pretend we don't! Ours is a little crossbreed but he thinks he's king of the hill...currently snuggled in a giant ball of thick fleece blanket on the armchair opposite me...and they say it's a dog's life?!

    but she's so cute and teeny it's hard not to spoil her to bits. She knows whenever i am not feeling well and doesnt leave my side when I am on my own. She's amazing company for me :)

    Janie I just looked at the album of your dogs, gorgeous! Had to laugh at the million-dogs-on-lap one - that always happens when I visit our friends that have three dogs, all three plus Ollie decide that they MUST be on my lap so I end up squished under a sea of dog!

    Defantly! Willow never leaves my side, but then her momma sadly died when she was a little over a week old, so i hand raised her, bottle fed her and everything. So she thinks i'm momma i'm sure lol.

    Classic! Our spaniel at home used to climb onto our shoes or slippers and hitch a lift around the kitchen when she was wee as she couldn't keep up with us!

    By the way - we're chatting on about three different threads at this rate! :D

    You softie! Poor Ollie was exhausted earlier, we went out on the bikes for an hour so he had to run along behind - only time he caught up was when we got to the hills and slowed down drastically!

    she so small she gets tired easily lmao.
    went to the beach once last summer, was out 4 hours, and the poor dog didnt wanna go walkies for 3 days after, if i said walkies she put her head down lol.

    she goes out and about with me whenever possible, ont he bus trains etc, she loves it.

    I didn't even realise you could take them on buses and trains! In a carrier is it? Ollie used to come with me in the car when I was at work but not allowed any more as of tomorrow when new job starts so he's gonna have to get used to his own company a few days a week!

    no, not in a carrier. She sits on my lap. As long as theyre kept under control there's no problem.
    She just loves to be out and about with me.
