Racehorse TALK

Dog lovers ya gotta watch this video.

   

Looks like a bit of kelpie in that one...might have to train mine to do that. They get crazy over tennis balls.

Won't open for me.  Bugger.  Try again another time. 

  Thanks Steve, Your as clever as the dog. 

Thanks Steve.  Bloody brilliant.  He looks just like my old boy.  Lost him just before Christmas. 

Sorry to read that Firezuki.

No probs Authorized 

Sorry to hear that firezuki - labrador? They seem like cracking dogs.

Actually I'd love to get a dog 

Mostly Lab Steve.  Bit of staffy(?) maybe.  Ate like a lab.  Very smart boy and the best I've ever seen
at nicking food from little kids.  Genius.  He'd look totally uninterested until the big moment. 
I really miss my boy.  He had to be put down a few weeks before Xmas and it's probably the hardest
thing I've ever done. 
Lost my dad a few weeks later so it's the worst Xmas of all time just gone. 



Thanks Matty. 

Oh mate - I'm really sorry to hear that that.

Hopefully the forum can give you a bit of smile when you're in need 

I was surprised - a friend lost German Shepherd he'd had for many years [like a child] went and got a new dog relatively soon after and it's worked out really well - course you'll know when you're ready.

Sorry to hear about your loses Firey Some of you may remember my posts from a couple of years back when I had to have our old dog put down. It really is one of the hardest things you'll ever have to do. Cried my eyes out all the way to & from the vet.

On a happier note we now have a black lab who looks & behaves a lot like the dog in that clip. Ever since our last dog left us my youngest son has kept the pressure up to get another dog but myself & the wife have held firm claiming he & the other kids are getting older(he's now 17) & will be leaving home in the next few years, leaving us with a dog. Anyway 5 months ago on a Sunday afternoon youngest son & sister stroll in with this black ball of fluff that would make your heart melt. Wife bursts into tears & I just keep repeating NO, NO, NO, NO. They say they'll look after it, feed it, walk it etc etc. I say NO YOU WON'T. All sorts of promises are made & of course we keep the damn thing.

I'm sure all the dog lovers here know the rest of the story Son & Daughter are never home & Mum & Dad walk feed & look after this georgous animal

You guys are right.  I have been thinking about maybe getting another family member and perhaps the time
is right.  It'll probably be a rescued dog because I hate to think about those poor little buggers languishing
in prison - or worse. 
Thanks for the support gang. 

Mate - depends on what you want of course - but my friend got a greyhound through the racing program and has worked out beautifully.
