haha @ the penis.

for some reason the bites that I have stay itchy for ages too ... keep waking me in the middle of the night, despite lathering them with benadryl.

My rooms are pretty minimal so I could easily do the flea bomb thing or spray ... think I'll spray before any whippets take residence then. The bomb thing seems waaay too messy in that it sticks to everything. the residual flea issue isn't a huge issue, but I didn't know about the 3 yr dormancy of larvae, so it's probably necessary. Gonna replace my sofa where she used to sleep in the next few months anyway so that should crack the main problem.

Just been looking at various dog rehoming sites again. whippets are crossed with so many other dogs, it's bizarre. Staffies, salukis ...

this one looks like a handsome fella - an English Bull Terrier cross Whippet...
I wouldn't want to keep one because I'd rather stick with one as near to a whippet as possible until I know the breed from experience. But from what I've been reading, whippets are more often than not always crossed, and it's virtually impossible to identify whether its just a whippet? In that case I think I'll be better off with either a whippet/lurcher cross or whippet/greyhound cross?

also, these guys look a lovely pair.

I'm not going to adopt until I've made a start on a few things I've been putting off .. financial, organisational .. usual avoidance stuff ... cause I'll just pour all my attention into my new buddy as an avoidance tactic. great for the dog, but not for getting shit moving forward. It's an incentive to get things moving anyways.
 
^ gorgeous dogs. I'd steer clear of too much terrier though, but that's just me.

A lurcher is a pure bred sight hound - whippet, greyhound, saluki, afghan etc crossed with any other breed Marmz. So that whippet x bull is a lurcher. People cross them to get the speed and sight of a long dog (whippet etc) plus the other trait they may be after, be it intelligence (collie) tenacity (terrier) size to clear gates & hedges etc. A hunting man takes great pride in a good homebred lurcher tailored to their particular prey and terrain. The big ones easily take down deer, I could handle a dead rabbit or two but not sure about that!

I love the smooth haired but I always promised myself one day I'll have a scruffy lurcher, I have a real soft spot for them ever since I met a beautiful grizzly grey one called Mush <3
 
atm23, where are joo?

I need counseling. I'm having a mini-crisis

I seem to be unable to function normally without an animal of some description to look after. I know that sounds lame as fuck, but I don't care.

Anyway, today I visited a dogs home to find a suitable pair of pooches to adopt. I need furry creatures to be able to function properly as a human it seems

I visited a pair of labradoodles today ... Jackson and Marley ... a pair of degenerates who only come as a pair and must be adopted together ... they were ace. Someone else has reserved them, which is fine, because at least they'll get a decent home, and in all honesty theyre waaaay too fucking big for me and waaaay too furry and messy and smelly probably, but they were so chilled out and happy, considering they were in kennels .. I'd love to adopt them even if they're not as neat and tidy and whippet-like as I've been looking for. They were so placid and adorable they'd be hard to resist if they were available

There was this uber fat black fatlabrador (sp?) thing that didn't even have a name or description with it, but that might go well with a whippet ... it was unattractive and unmarketable really .. and that just made me like it even more .. and it had grey whiskers which I seem to like ... apparently Black Dogs seem to be hard to re-home ... but i like em ... (and i do not understand why, maybe there's no Led Zeppelin dog fans out there ?!!) so I'm thinking about looking at that one again, but walking through dog re-homing kennels is fucking hard to do, because looking at sad puppies all lonely in individual kennels makes me cry.

anyhoo marley and jackson: (labradoodles, not F1's, look like miniatures X with Labs)

from different rescue home:

Spud looks ace:

Does nerdboy not count?

That's all part of their plan. Once they've closed for the day, it's out with the Boneo and let the carnage commence.

Those greyhounds remind of my ex's, she had two, not at the same time. Are they retired racers? If so they are usually knackered and very easy to look after. But they might not be fully continent etc.

EDIT actually the first one looks much too young to be retired.
 
Nerdboy can look after himself ... he wouldn't be in my vicinity otherwise ...

he wants a dawgy too ... we both want one, a pair preferably

the whippets/greyhounds .. one's a raced one, one isn't ... I like the idea of having a youngun and an old un. nursing an oldun and replacing it with another when it's passed on ...
 
I'd get just one to start with Marmz and another a few months down the line, especially if they're rescues. I'd avoid pairs as they tend to bond with each other and not
with the humans, which makes it really difficult to train them. One of the worst is when they run together as a pack aka take off into the horizon every time they're let off the lead which is miserable.

I'm saying that assuming your a 1st time hound owner, forgive me if you're experienced (at dog owning :))

My cardigan corgi pup is turning out to be amazing, sharp as a knife. She herded all the chickens up & drove them into their coop without me even asking, its amazing when instinct can do.

How are everyone elses canine & feline companions?
 
I'm liking that fine little lady B&W<3

She looks proper hardy and full of character
 
Thanks atm23 <3 :) you got it in one, she's ridiculously hardy what ever the weather she wants to be outdoors, she fell in the pond twice and her under coat was dry as a bone. She's fun but sensible with it. They're the oldest native breed but as risk of extinction, no one knows why they're not more popular, many blame it on the stupid queen and her stupid Pembroke Corgis.

Anyway, sorry to bore you, but heres another pic. It may be that her other ear never stands up but i don't care :)

How was the trip on the moped, did it feel strange? Any anxiety/flash backs?
 
Im a cat man, but i do have a great picture of a dog i took on holiday a few years ago.

(I took the picture.......i did not take the dog on holiday - just to clarify!)
 
This thread is my proudest achievement in here, i can't believe it's still going (and cats are still on top :D <3)

Cats and tripping are a winning combo. There's a lush pic of my boyfriend with Cherry's kitties after he'd just had a hit of DMT. I might have to borrow my mum's cat for my upcoming mescaline adventure :D
