    Oh yes!

    What is the process in getting some of these rehomed, to say the UK?

    We have contacts with groups in Luxembourg, Germany and Switzerland where there aren't huge pet over-populations...UK we don't do anything. We've got a couple flying to Germany this afternoon, they'll be met at the airport, fostered and, voila, re-homed. I'll get photos of the two most recent success cases today if they're still there!

    Freshly bathed for their flight to Germany, White Walker, and a Galgo who I didn't get round to naming. Also, a few other pix of some random inmates, including an escape artist Spanish mastiff girl who came in yesterday IMG_3149.JPG IMG_3150.JPG IMG_3155.JPG IMG_3162.JPG IMG_3167.JPG

    The white dude, Ronaldo is about 5 and the other fellow is 3-ish. Perfect ages for you, I reckon;) Just a car drive away:)

    Aww I wish - I think 80KG is too big for me. I said I would downsize after Rocky, who was about 42KG :lol:

    Tell me more about the bull-infused Shepherd :043:

    42 kg is said to be the perfect weight for the heavy holding dogs. Still plenty of endurance to go with their power. I saw some Alanos last year who all weighed in around that and they were majestic beasts. Also, Dogos at that weight are a sight to behold...Did you do a lot of conditioning with Rocky?...I'll have a look at old threads later:cool:

    :D :eek: For the bull-infused shepherd. Sounds nasty that, eh?o_O:D

    I just watched his diet (for the most part) and we had long walks up the mountain. However I think he did get overweight at one point - tho at the time I thought he was just filling out.

    Got any more pics of the bull shepherd? Any more details about him or his back story? What type of shepherd & bull is in his make-up do you think?

    We don't know anything about him except he seemed to be a Malinois type of shepherd with a real EBT look about him (both me and the missus thought this independently of each other although maybe the photos don't capture it too well). Super-cool and very young fellow we found a home for very quickly

    ETA Did some adding up today and discovered we've rehomed 160 dogs in 5 months so far this year!

    Yep! And it's seriously the best thing I've done in a long time. Had today off from the centre as work is so busy...and just didn't seem right not seeing my chums:( No worries, I'll catch up with them all tomorrow:cool:

    Becoming a computer wizard with this project:) Just cobbled a few scenes together of the dogs at the centre, the various landscapes and villages, and my own dogs on a video. Hope you enjoy;)

    New chap came in yesterday, a Mastín pup (maybe a cross as he isn't overburdened in the jowls department). So confident, happy and forward, I'm even thinking of bringing the mother-in-law out to live so I- I mean she- can have this fella;) IMG_3287.JPG
    And delighted to see the 72-84 hours pass after this numpty ate his tick collar. Very close to death he was for a while but now he's back to his outgoing best, having hopefully made a full recovery IMG_3295.JPG And one of my own spoilt fellas, just finishing up his 6 mile run on the mountain (his prey drive is immense so I keep him on the lead at all times) IMG_3279.JPG
