.The wrikly dog !

It says at the top Im ecstatic ,well yes ,look Ive added pictures,so now you know what our wrikly dog looks like,Im using red a joyful colour..........I cant believe Ive done it,the ever patient ,ever tolerant Glen from next door,came round to re connect the printer Id taken its plug and other gubbins out to make room for Sams bed last week.Whilst here I was asking him things,he showed me no end of clever stuff ,stuff Id been to proud to ask!!stuff that you clever people out there take for granted,as Im sure I probably will once it becomes second nature to me .Jeannette you had better get that box of gold stars out now ,just look what your protege ,has been up to!!    GOOD IN IT ?          Yes well stop crowing and do your journal..

Maurice always wanted a dog,so once Id retired,we used to go off to the fairly local animal rescue centre and one week we went and there was this fellow looking at us through the bars,well the rest as you know is history,...........we were allowed to get him out and walk him round,for a bit,we decided we would like him for our dog,we went back to reception and filled in the necesary paper work, and gave the lady our plastic,it was suggested we might like to go for a coffee whilst all this was processed, ooo we might be coming back next week for our dog ,we had our coffee,well Maurice had tea ,and a few fags and finger nails!!     when we couldnt wait anymore we went back to reception and were asked ,subject to the vets O K would we like to take him home today.Oh .......er Yes?  So off we all go to see the vet she gave him the once over deemed him fit ,advised us about his diet and various other bits,and we have got our dogWOW next stop the shop on site to buy collar and lead, bed, bowls,numerous other stuff including food,another bashing of the old plastic.But yer now we have a dog,so now when Maurice is at work I have a chum,He adores Maurice its something to see the greeting he gets when he comes in from work .We are not sure what happened for him to be sent to the animal rescue place but hes very wary of strangers ,he had no idea how to play,all that has changed gradually,and hes most certainly decided we are his people,which is just as well ..as he is our dog. And now you all know hes crosseyed too!!!   Got to go now and press save to see how this all comes out !

Have a restful happy Sunday .          Jan xx

Aw - what a lovely doggy and so heart warming that he feels so comfortable with you - it is so rewarding isn't it?

I have just got a wee kitty and he is taking up all my time lol - unfortunately my two older cats are not impressed :-((

That is a lovely story!!  My ex and I went to the rescue centre once to get a cat but was told we couldn't have one unless we got an ancient cat and were willing to put a catflap in the bedroom window.  We lived in a ground floor flat at the time!!  Madness!!  Still I'm glad your dog is happy and well done putting the pics in :-)
