At least he’s still got his 🤪🤪
Nice lad. And he has his priorities sorted!
I won’t mind seeing more pics of him (different pose?)

I lost my old boy at 15 almost 2 years ago, swore I wouldn't have another. But with you being a fellow Bully owner you will understand, there is no other breed!
Here to help!
Very handsome beast.A friend is taking care of a dog for a week. He sent me and another friend (with a Staffie) a message: “How do you cope? He’s never quiet!”
When we saw the dog our answer was: “And this is your first experience ‘owning’ a dog? Not the easiest to start with!”
A friend of mine adopted a retired racing greyhound, as you say, they are beautiful dogs.
Happy birthday to this lad. We know he was born as part of a litter of 8, and was the only boy. All of them raced with differing levels of success, but he won 6 of his 50-odd races before retirement and winding his way to us. Racing greyhounds are meticulously “catalogued” dogs and he is tattooed, meaning we know his entire history stretching back many generations. He has a few very famous racing dogs in his family history, and it really has been fascinating to learn all about it.
But, ultimately, he is a lovely pet and seems to enjoy his new life with us. He is a bit of a celeb around here now, and has many female admirers! Greyhounds are, on the whole, gentle and loyal dogs and make for great pets after they have retired.
Coincidentally, she lost the use of her sofa the evening of the day the dog came to live with her, which is quite common I understand… :-D
Soon after we got him we had a lovely new sofa delivered - took him roughly a day to get acquainted

Beautiful dog
Sunday, I received a video of the husky in the snow. The half inch white stuff we had. The dog was só happy! Typically a husky.
I bet he was.
On behalf of my wife, the biggest EBT fan this side of the North Sea: thanks!Here to help!
They are certainly a breed apart Tone! Once a Bully owner, always a Bully owner.
Here's my previous Bully Deana.

Loki loving life up Latrigg:
I've had a Lab, Dobe, mixed, Bulldogs, Rotts and none of them comes anywhere near EBT's for energy and comedy value.

Always fancied a tri but never got around to having one.
Not sure where in the world you are but the BTC have a trophy show at The Royal Court Hotel , Coventry on the 16th of Feb, there will be some top quality dogs on display!
It's hilarious just to watch them sometimes!
Cheers,
Neil.
Back to full fitness (after surgery for a luxating patella) and enjoying the crispy weather.
Just as a little update, this is the piece of stick that the surgeon removed from between her eye and socket, it went right around the side, and that’s my thumb for size comparison.
This is her about 10 days after, the cone of shame is making her feel pretty sad I think!
Bill so far is just north of £7k, thank goodness for insurance, and fingers crossed she’s going to keep the eye.
Unlucky to have such a freak accident, but lucky that the outcome wasn’t far worse!
Wow that's awful. So pleased she seems to have come through it.Just as a little update, this is the piece of stick that the surgeon removed from between her eye and socket, it went right around the side, and that’s my thumb for size comparison.

Started out with nothing. Still have most of it left.
Unbelievable! Very lucky!

Scary stuff.
Our dogtrainer warned us for accidents in the woods and also if the dog picks up sticks and runs with them. Dogs getting impaled…
Yes, throwing sticks for dogs can cause some bad injuries, one of my good friends is a vet and it keeps him busy at times.
Our other dog is a spaniel and he’s obsessed with balls, fun until he misjudges a catch and charges headlong into the hedge following it. Makes me even more nervous now!
I’ve had dogs all my life and this is the first time one has ever been injured like Jet, and just in the garden too!
Frosty start, no signs of a thaw yet.

My previous spaniel was a working dog, he was lemon and white and looked so cute, but would crash through brambles, hedges and undergrowth when retrieving. How he never got more than scratches I'll never know. My current spaniel will go round tall grass rather than go through it! We're all different.
Hard as nails!
Soft as..

Lovely dogs! I’d never had a spaniel until my wife got a working cocker, they enjoy going for walks for miles and he’s a really affectionate and intelligent dog.My previous spaniel was a working dog, he was lemon and white and looked so cute, but would crash through brambles, hedges and undergrowth when retrieving.

I gave up shooting about 30 years ago, but did have a couple of working labs back then, and haven’t given up the working dogs or training them. I’ve had a couple of Jack Russell Terriers along the way as well, both little characters!
Similar here, his retrieves consist of slippers and socks when available!

My old Labrador retriever's favorite was retrieving underpants!
Some great pics of many dogs, although my bias is obviously the labs.
Thanks for sharing.
Our Brodie had Round 5 for his chemo last week and a rerun of the tests, scans, bloods etc.
The good news is bleeding from the initial symptom (now declared as a UTI) has stopped. Cancer isn’t growing or metastasising so we keep going with Rounds 6-8 and then we wait.
He has really good days and then not so good ones when he’s quiet and downbeat. Understandable really.
But generally we are pleased as is the Royal Dick Vet - irony is there.
Thanks for all the support by way of open and private messages and donations on the JustGiving page my daughter has started for him. We are deeply grateful.
Jim and The McBs including Brodie!!
That’s horrific - poor wee bugger but ever so lucky.
Hope the recovery is full and speedy!!
Jim
