This made me cry

 

 

 

I couldn't watch that all, just skipped most of it. What was the story behind it?

Always chokes me up too. Very powerful piece of film.

It's basically a bloke talking about how his Dog was the only one there for him in a difficult time of his life and the memories he and his friends have of him. He then takes him to be put down (which it effectively shows) and how distraught he is by it. It's fucking brilliant but awful at the same time.

I've not watched and wouldn't want to.

 

I know what I was like when we had to have Scoo put down.

[chrisbonnie]

i could only stomach 3 minutes of that, i just cant watch that lovely cheery little chappy die.

 

call me a baby, but im happy enough in my fake, fairy world of ever lasting happiness.

He looks like a Ridley Scott Alien

 

 

After 2 nights away he fell asleep with my shoe

 

 

If you haven't seen Dog Shaming you are missing out. This is Stan's effort

 

 

I notice that most of my pictures of him are indoors. I think this is because when we go out I'm enjoying myself as much as he is so don't have a chance to take a photo for you lot.

 

Proper loving this dog ownership lark, love the walkies in the pissing down rain at 7am, love his tail going when his favourite toy gets discovered (for the 7th time that day), love how he runs about mad for about 5 minutes when we come in after being out (doesn't matter if it's been 10 minutes or 4 hours) cannot imagine how I've lived this long without being a dog owner.

this one is great.

Dogs have it all figured out. Look at their waking ritual - no alarm clock, shower, shave, dress etc etc

 

Nope - have a bit of yawn and a shake and you're ready for another day of fun.

dogs are just amazing have a terrier and a lab lurch cross. had a rottie he died of cancer a few months ago. fucking heartbreaking it was. remenber briging him to the vet i was acting all calm saying it was for the best but when it came time i fell apart the easy thing is loving them the hardest is saying goodbye.

A dogs life - eat, sleep, shit and chase pussy.

 

If there's such a thing as reincarnation I want to come back as a dog.

Advice needed: Stan had to have his anal glands emptied last Saturday at the vets and we were advised to put more fibre in his diet and were recommended bran flakes to bulk up his stools which we've been doing since Monday. He was showing slight (not nearly as bad) signs they're still bothering him this morning before he went for his morning dump.

 

Should we leave it a few days for the fibre to kick in (stools slightly harder already) or whisk him the vets again? Money isnt the issue BTW as we have unlimited fingerings for him. just wondering if I'm not giving it enough time to follow the vet advice

Normally happens with older dogs, the missus used to squeeze our old dogs anal glands herself, saved a fortune and the vet showed her how to do it himself (our old vet was a family friend, pity he popped his clogs) and it was a pretty standard procedure anyone can do. Unless the glands become infected it isn't a serious problem. By upping the fibre intake it will lead to bigger stools. Another source of food which will prevent your dogs becoming too soft which causes the gland problems is fresh veg such as Carrots, Cabbage or Celery, our dog loves carrots. If money isn't a problem you can buy the more expensive dog food with a high percentage of veg or fibre.

I've seen carrots mentioned online actually. He has specific greyhound and lurcher feed (which is what he's always been fed apparently) at the minute plus treats and now some branflakes with it. But might try carrot with his brekkie too

 

I think as I'm a first time dog owner I'm being a helicopter parent

We were all there once mate, learning by doing.

 

Just dice and cook the carrot first so it is nice and soft and mix it in with his food, he may not eat all of it but a lot should find its way into his system. If our dog goes off her food we put a splash of cod liver oil on it and she loves the stuff. We use it anyway once a day as it is healthy for the animal.

[Paulie Dangerously]

Cheers PB ill give them a go. Stan will never go off his good he's one hungry bastard. He'd eat continuously if we let him I reckon

[Lucky Pierre]

Have you stuck your finger up?

nice training Paulie.

 

once you have them coming for food, the rest is plain sailing. You can simply whistle and give him a treat, thats another handy one. Especially when you're out and you want to keep screaming his name in the park.

 

i have my 2 and half year old beagle coming back to me like a boomerang with a quick whistle. She's just getting used to to walking around the streets now off the lead. Im still bricking it she'll run out onto the road, but i generally do it very early in the morning, or pick a housing estate with little traffic, eventully she'll get it.

 

their great craic though arent they.

 

my other little dog Jack (westie) rolled in shite on his walk earlier. I was proper annoyed with the little idiot, but after a wash and a quick blow dry (for him, not me), we're friends again, and he's asleep beside me on the couch.

 

i can honestly say id never be without dogs now. their just great :yes:

[mlwilliams]

Got this little guy yesterday, say hello to Hugo:

 

 

Never had to clean up so much shit in one day, totally worth it though!

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Cute as fuck. Good job Jimmy Saville is dead.
