Hi,
Thought some of the dog lovers in Forumland would like to see our latest addition to the family. He is 10 weeks old now and a little terror. Needless to say he is banned from my train room (spare bedroom). Had his second injection today and was wormed again. Oh my aching wallet!!

Nice one Bill ;D
Not much time for trains now then with all them 'walkies' to contend with :smiley-laughing: :smiley-laughing:
I'd love a Springer Spaniel but want with a 'wossie' cat already, we wouldn't have much of a house left by the end of the week! ;D

Very cute, and a lovely picture. :thumbsup:
He looks such a cutie. We've got 2 labradors and they give us so much enjoyment, even the eleven year old one behaves like a pup at times.
He is sizing up your camera, working out where would be the best place to get his needle sharp teeth into :smiley-laughing:
I hope you take lots of pictures, they don't stay that size for long ::)
Curses, foiled by the work system. The picture doesn't show up. I'll have to look later. We've got two dogs - a border collie and a 'Heinz'. Great companions.
Thanks to all for the kind words on Barney.
We have had Golden Retrievers before and know the breed quite well. They are wonderfully intelligent with a definite character all their own, making excellent pets especially around children. The only child around here now of course is me, as all our family is now grown up and left the nest.
I will have to share being spoiled by the lady of the house with Barney now.
Hope you get your pictures up and running Ken as both of us like seeing doggie photos.
Thanks again to all from the best mainly N gauge trains family forum.
Bill

I can see them fine at home, it's just the work censorship system doesn't like me to see pictures. Of course, I wouldn't dream of being on the forum during work time...Okay, that's a lie. I spend a couple of hours a day on here reading about railways but it sounded good. lol
I daren't show my wife that pic of Barney, she wants one already. He is too cute.
he is one cute little pup :)
interested why you came up with the name Barney ???
was it because you expect him to turn the house into "Rubble" :smiley-laughing: :smiley-laughing: :smiley-laughing: ;D
I'll get me coat
dave :thumbsup:

Doesn't seem like a Fred and he is a "Rock Star" with the Goldie wiggle - so Barney!! :smiley-laughing: :smiley-laughing: :smiley-laughing:
OK I'll shut up as well. Actually my wife picked his pet name. Don't know why and neither does she.
Cheers
Bill
He may be a little terror but with a face like that he could get away with anything! Sooo cute!
Evil lurks behind those eyes... I can almost hear the what can I chew next idea flowing across the web. A lovely dog , just got home and rescued my three from the kennels may even give them priority over the layout for the next few days.
Barney chewed through my telephone cable today. Unfortunately it was the one to the base station which meant all satellites were dead. :thumbsdown: But fortunately for Barney it wasn't the power cable.
The air was somewhat blue as you will imagine - tried a new telephone cable but got stupid messages on the handsets, so I hooked up an old base station and got them working again. :thumbsup:
We're all friends again now, Barney didn't at all like me being annoyed, but he will have to learn. :o>:( >:(
Guess what though he was at the new cables this evening, so a tap on the bottom and some angry words made him stop-----for how long!!
The monster is rising!!! :evil: :evil:

When our pooch was a pup, she liked to lay under the dining table. It was only when we had to pull it out, for a family do, that the bottom of one leg collapsed - she had chewed it through!

As they get older they fail to show you any respect !
Further to my posting of Barney in February, here is the transformation to 6months old. He has a long way to go yet before he is fully grown and is blessed with all his "Goldie Feathers". He is still the same naughty teenager and is becoming quite a handful. A firm hand is being applied to curb his enthusiasm or he could be quite unmanageable at 30-35 kilos - currently he is at 23 kilos.
Hope this post is successful as I am testing the system through "media" as photobucket seems to be riddled with phishing and trojan "*$&"**.
NO CAN'T FIND THE CODING TO PASTE TO THE STRING THEREFORE NO PICTURE OF BARNEY!!!!! Any advice??
Bill
Here you go Bill

Looking good :thumbsup: he looks very well indeed.
Lovely pup, hope he has a long and happy life. :wave:
He's turned into a handsome dog.
We just adopted a 10 year old Retreiver / Spaniel mix. Sweet dog. Was abused most of his life and has all sorts of health problems, and was actually 3 minutes from being euthanized at one point because they couldn't house him. Bless him, he's such a happy dog. Thick as two short ones, but happy.

Good for you Mark and now you can look forward to a few years of totally devoted love from the pup, I only wish humans showed the same no strings attached love that dogs do :thumbsup:
Seeing as a few others have posted pictures of their lovely dogs I thought I would post a picture of our little pup Tootsie.

Being an animal lover with a real affection for dogs I am very happy to see and hear about your little (and big) "treasures". Even though they really try our patience at times, I have found that dogs always give more than we could ever give them.
Love 'em all
Bill
We got a rescue dog quite a few years ago. Nobody knew the history of the pooch but it's obvious that at some stage she was beaten and still reacts negatively towards some male strangers. She's getting quite old now but she is an integral part of the family. It's great how dogs integrate and give absolute loyalty.
Being a dog lover it's good to see the happy
pooch stories on the forum. So long as they
don't chew up your rolling stock!
