Following last night’s Eastenders episode, I think it’s now safe to talk about it. I was gutted last week to have the Eastenders storyline RUINED for me by MyTwoPence, a blog that talks about anything that is current news. It says ‘current news’ but it told me that Wellard was going to die a week in advance.
Yes, I’m afraid that Wellard’s illness doesn’t end well.
After 14 years in the soap, Wellard has prompted a wave of emotion all over the UK for Eastenders fans and MSN has today posted the Top TV Dogs in honour of Wellard. Something tells me it may be a little biased though, because whoever did the list is obviously a huge Eastenders fan as there seem to be a lot of Eastender dogs in it. I mean, what did Terence the Llasa ever do in Eastenders to make the Top TV Dogs list? Ahem.
I’ve seen this dog video before but it still makes me laugh.
It’s not your typical video. We’ve all seen the ones, or experienced it with our own dog, where the dog runs into the patio doors or something daft because they cannot see the glass and try to run straight through it.
No, this dog video is a labrador whose owner opens the door and the dog STILL won’t go out because he seems to think there’s glass in it. Labradors are a pretty intelligent dog breed, and I guess it is quite intelligent to anticipate glass being in the door - either that, or he’s been thick enough to walk or run smack bang into glass so many times that he’s now scared of doors!
Anyway, without any more to-do, here’s the video, sit back and enjoy - it only takes 1 minute, so that’s probably just enough time for a biscuit but not enough for a cup of tea, sorry
Most dogs love to chase rabbits, cats or birds, but they don’t get to see squirrels as often. Our local park, however, is full of them and although my dog has never been too bothered about chasing other dogs or birds, she absolutely loves squirrels.
Having said that, she’s a shih tzu - not the brightest of dogs at the best of times (or so they would have us believe, I think it’s a conspiracy myself), so when the squirrel runs up the tree, my shih tzu normally runs round and round the tree wondering where it’s gone.
Here’s a video of a dog that did realise where the squirrel had gone to and see what he does. Watch it to brighten your day up for 16 seconds!
There is a small greyhound stadium close to me for amateur greyhound racers. A friend wanted to go so I thought I’d ask round and see when the next race was on. Turns out the greyhound races are over for this year, but there are still a few Sundays of afghan hound racing!
I’ve never heard of afghan hound racing before and the idea to be honest sounded quite preposterous, and i did wonder if someone was pulling my leg but no, apparently Read the rest of this entry »
I think I may have talked about this before, as it is definitely not an option for ‘making money’. In fact, it’s very expensive. You might end up with a few hundred pounds profit from a litter but you’ll have spent more than that on your bitch over the year. Indeed, with this recent litter, my bitch cost me quite a lot in vets fees - but she is worth it so I don’t care.
Today, I came across a site called How Rich Will I Be. It’s a fun little site where you answer 15 multiple choice, quick questions and it tells you how much you’ll be worth. Here’s my results - and I definitely wouldn’t get there by breeding dogs! Have a go, and leave a comment to let me know what you got - no cheating mind!
