Got a 5mth old Springador puppy from the rescue kennels at the weekend.

He's already part of the family and wrecking the place...

Lots of work ahead

  • I can see no reason why FIFA should object to England playing with a picture of this on their shirts.



    (am I on the wrong thread?)

    Springer's are great dogs if you have the time and energy to devote to them. Otherwise they will destroy your house.

    Was cycling home one night & saw 2 girls jogging with their dog & the one holding the lead had quite large & mobile mamaries so I couldn't resist calling out..

    "Nice puppies!"

    :oops:

    True story. Bought a potted miniature plum tree in full fruit as a present for a friend five or so years ago. Carrying it across the garden centre car park I was cackled at by two silver haired old dears in tweed and got a loud shout of "nice plums!" as I bent over getting it into the car. Grinned all the way home!

    Lovely looking dog BTW
    FCN 5 belt driven fixie for city bits
    CAADX 105 beastie for bumpy bits
    Litespeed L3 for Strava bits

    Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast.

    Not sure I could have walked out leaving a dog like that in rescue kennels either...
    Sometimes parts break. Sometimes you crash. Sometimes it’s your fault.

    That has to be the cutest thing I've seen since the baby orangutans at Monkey World :)

    She was very very nearly called "ziggy" for that very reason

    her blue eye is quite scary to be honest

    I did not expect a thread titled "Puppies" to actually be about a friggen dog. Especially on a Friday!

    A true scalp is not only overtaking someone but leaving them stopped at a set of lights. As you, who have clearly beaten the lights, pummels nothing but the open air ahead. ~ 'DondaddyD'. Player of the Unspoken Game

    Bowie jokes are quality too!

    I was told that wall-eyed collies are popular as sheepdogs for that reason - they are supposed to freak out the sheep as well.
