A visit to the Dogs Trust

A well done Chris Zac looks a lovely dog. Wish I could be brave enough to go to the dogs home to choose a dog. We lost our dog just before Christmas and we miss her big time. I know i'd want to bring them all home if I ventured inside...feel so sorry for them all..how can you choose when they are all looking at you with hope in their eyes. Good luck with Zac...and Zac your one lucky boy to have found a good home.

What a lovely looking pup. One of my 2 was from dogs trust, they do some very good work.

I just wish the Dogs Trust didn't put their people up in 5* hotels when they are doing the  County shows etc.  but maybe the get a large discount

Lovely dog.  He's very like our brindle lurcher type Henry, also  from the Dogs Trust.  He will want to chase everything that moves fast or makes a noise, bikes, rattly cars, tractors etc.  He will spot things that you can't even see such as a pheasant quietly hiding in a barley field fifty yards from where you and he are standing.  We got Henry's dna done (just google dog dna) it cost about £60.  Henry is 25% whippet, 25% collie and 50% border collie.  Not a trace of greyhound - to the surprise of us and everyone else.

Write your comments here...You could try a website like Preloved some nice dogs on there needing homes due to the owners changed circumstances.  There is a dog out there that needs you 

Got back from Zach's first caravan trip, a caravan rally (with the C&CC) at Gargrave Football Club next to the Leeds / Liverpool Canal, so some good canal side walks. Lots of dogs on the rally, good socialising and all went well even the coffee morning, no problems at all. It's nice to get back into those 7am country walks with a dog!.

He seems to have got the priorities right!!

What's cooking?

I agree with Pippah45, lots of good dogs that need an owner, due to all sorts of circumstances.

well done, nice  looking dog

I told you they like their comfort.

Another rally at Fraisthorpe (Bridlington) field next to the quiet beach, so plenty of off lead training and play time!

The following day the beach was very busy, it was the 'Annual worldwide whippet walk' anyone heard of it? walks in various locations on that day, so the beach was full of whippets, lurchers, greyhounds and their owners!

Great pics, Chris. Does he do that trick of running straight at you at full speed then veering off at the last moment? You dare not move for fear of colliding with him.
