Hello and welcome to VC

Your dogs are stunning, i want to dognap Merli! :077: Photo's of the gang please? :D

[Tanya]

I've just noticed your photo of your pack, what a beautiful bunch :078: and I though I had a varied bunch of doglets :D

[Simon]

Welcome to our pad! :D

I don't have a dog - but it would seem you have enough to cover my missing pup anyway!

[Helen]

hello, nice to see you here :046:

(you may know me as livercake on t'other site)

[Lee]

HI,

Thanks for all your welcomes my little pack do keep me busy and the hair is not as bad as you might think screamingswifts a lot of grooming keeps that in check.

Lisalh I don't think I will swap..LOL.. and I can't tell you how I managed to win my OH over and have so many dogs because when we got our first house together he did not want a dog until a neighbours dog stole his heart and we took him in he was a 5 years old Samoyed called Coney he is my avatar he was a wonderful dog he passed away at just over 13 years of age in April 2006 and we still miss him so much time is not healing very quickly for me with regards to Coney.

We have Fostered dogs in the past short term for Samoyed Rescue and also for Many Tears Animal Rescue in wales which is where my Nova Kirby and Merli all came from. I had to give up Fostering when Merli came to stay and miss it very much and hope to go back to it in the future.

Beth I will be keeping a look out for you..LOL..Merli is a sweetheart she is coming on slowly and we are taking her forward as quickly as we can but sadly she has had a terrible past and finds it hard to let go sometimes.

Tori the treats went down well The Fluffters say THANK YOU for the freebies and next time we will buy a bag promise.

Welcome from me & my cocker. It took me (& my family) years to convince my OH that we needed a dog. Now I just need to start working on him for dog No. 2

[Lee]

Well good luck Max I hope it wil not take long to convince your OH I have to say mine never really takes any convincing he loves them all as much as I do.
