I love Dogs me...

Whoops me too, that was it, yes,  ' you either love dogs or you don't' was your exact wording. Sorry!

However, I was really talking about the use 'dog haters' (or similar negative wording) which has cropped up from time to time in some folks posts which kind of polarises us all.

Welcome to the thread Micky Boy👍🏻. If you’ve got something positive to share re Dogs, or just to reach out, go for it. There’s enough negativity about Dogs on CT I’m not going to engage with it on here. One thing I did actually write/say is-‘wrong posters give it a swerver’, you are close to that. It’s a beaut day, so you enjoy it👍🏻😊

🌞Sure is Rocky, let's go out and enjoy it! 👍

Quiet, no dramatic colour but still a wonder to behold watching the sun rise as we walked across the stubble of a harvested & bailed crop, we saw rabbits & hares taking advantage of the vast wheat free area to scoot about in the distance. I wore my shirt fleece over my T as the temp was 9c, cool, almost crisp but far better to walk in, both Young un & Her Mum ran big circles over the stubble. I wondered at the fact they never seem to hurt themselves on the short stubble stalks, I checked, nope they don’t. We headed due East down the tramlines of the field with the sun creeping over a small wood to my left, the sun’s rays moving atwixt the gaps in the tree canopy giving it added beauty. After the stifling heat it’s a pleasure to get these late Summer temps. I love our climate, never too hot/cold/wet or dry for too long a period. Other than the rabbits, hares & wood pigeon(with His mixed up seasons) wooing a totally disinterested Lady friend, it was wildlife-less. Not a problem, being a part of the ever changing seasons on a beautiful day with the Dogs bounding out in the cool & vast expanse for a playground is reward enough. Young un & Her Mum will have earned their porridge this morning. Enjoy your day.

Enjoy yours too, Rocky. You got off to a good start and the dogs will be appreciating the cooler temp for sure. 

You ain’t wrong there mucker, they were in Doggy heaven with all that space, they’re usually heads down & walk in amongst crops but not today😂😂😂

Sounds blissful Rocky. I too love this country's climate for the same reasons.

On the pigeon comment my assumption of them is wooing is never out of season for a pigeon 😉 sort of martini time, any time any place anywhere, gee that probably dates me😉😉. Kissing out of season if the gorse isn't flowering type of thing. Am I wrong?

Sorry B2, the last paragraph just went ‘whoosh’ right over my head😂😂😂. The pigeon thing is like rabbits & mice I think. Mother Nature put them at the bottom of the food chain then gave them a ‘need to breed’ attitude to feed the rest of the animal kingdom👍🏻😊. It was blissful B2 it always is. I’m a happy guy there’s no doubt about that.

A happy Christmas to all Dogs & Pets generally, particularly to their carers😘. Have a safe & peaceful season.

Woof-woof to that. 👍🏻

May you, your family and your dogs have a happy and healthy 2019. 😊
