Just found out my dog that i got for my 10th birthday is going to have to be put down after the weekend.
1st cross wolfhound/lurcher.
10 years old called charlie
he grew up with me and always used to come with me and mates when i was younger, watch me play etc.
And has always looked after my mum as shes lives alone with me, so going to hit her really hard as well.
O well, were going to keep him for the weekend and have a nice time and then he will be put down
Also when i was in oz he could tell it was me and bark at the phone, and sits waiting at the door when he hears my car pull up

sorry to hear it mate. I was the same when the dog that was the same age as me got put down. You get over it eventually we decided to get another dog aswell as the house felt empty without one. We have got another blue rein cocker spaniel though called Benson

(the fuzzyness round his feet is where I had finderprint on the camera)
Again Brad

Not got any digital pictures of Toby (my last dog) as that was about 6 years ago so I don't think we had any digital cameras

One of my dogs had it's balls chopped off today. Apparently it was running around the town looking for bitches. The words of my Dad, not me. He was brought home by 5 different people in one day and was up all last night barking at the neighbors house because the next door neighbor has a fine looking dawg

not a nice thing to watch is it,,dogs once so fekin strong now weak as shit,,
in his youth shannon used to be able to drag me on the floor,whilst my mate mark held his leash and got ragdolled,,took my dad to help us hold him back and the big bugger couldstill pull us all!!!! was over 6ft tall when he stood on his heind legs come the last year of his life he couldnt even walk more than 5 metres without his legs giving way,in the last few weeks he started to lose control of his bladder,,,,,,bad thing when he could piss for scotland!!! got his name from the irish river that never stops flowing,,when he was a put we recorded an 11min+ pee
he was a legend at my school
