Our beloved sharpei died last night General Chat

I would like once again to thank everybody for their kind words, help and advice.
As shirley and myself have had traumatic week we are going away for two weeks to Scotland to recover and will be back in contact with you all when I return around the 23rd....Thanks Mike

My Sister has sharpei, and i know her's are very healthy, I know that there is no test for fsf, as she has said many times she wishes there was.
She trys very hard to breed very healthy sharpei and has done very well in the showring.
Her boy bailey is just lovely my son loves him to bits, he is so gentle and loveing with him.

I find it strange if your sister has pei and youve been to shows that i got this from you ------------------------------------------------I would find it very hard to choose, they both are very nice, lookin at the photos i like weaver, kash ia alovely colour. how big will they grow ?


i am confused but thats nothing new

OOPS double post !!!

yes my sis has pei, why confused
I asked about the size as i have seen small and large in the breed, had it explained as depends on breed lines, i thought you may have had a diffrent reason,
I know with my gsd (max) that he is large for what i have seen at shows, he is from a french mum and german dad.
he is 9 now.
hope that helps a little to unconfuse you

The breed standard asks for between 18 to 2o inches so they should all be in that range.

yes told that as well, but i have seen bigger and smaller.
thank you

So Sorry for your loss our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time...God Bless!...



I Stood By Your Bed Last Night

I stood by your bed last night, I came to have a peep.
I could see that you were crying, You found it hard to sleep.

I whined to you softly as you brushed away a tear,
"It's me, I haven't left you, I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here."

I was close to you at breakfast, I watched you pour the tea,
You were thinking of the many times, your hands reached down to me.

I was with you at the shops today, Your arms were getting sore.
I longed to take your parcels, I wish I could do more.

I was with you at my grave today, You tend it with such care.
I want to reassure you, that I'm not lying there.

I walked with you towards the house, as you fumbled for your key.
I gently put my paw on you, I smiled and said "it's me."

You looked so very tired, and sank into a chair.
I tried so hard to let you know, that I was standing there.

It's possible for me to be so near you everyday.
To say to you with certainty, "I never went away."

You sat there very quietly, then smiled, I think you knew,
in the stillness of that evening, I was very close to you.

The day is over... I smile and watch you yawning and say
"good-night, God bless, I'll see you in the morning."

And when the time is right for you to cross the brief divide,
I'll rush across to greet you and we'll stand, side by side.

I have so many things to show you, there is so much for you to see.
Be patient, live your journey out ... then come home to be with me.
