I had a muntjac head sitting on a staddlestone. Noticed Sailor had nosed it off and was having a tentative lick. Thought little of it. Couldn't find it the next day, save for a few cm of jawbone. Crunched the whole thing up.

I have pretty much a full Moose carcass spread over 2 chest freezers.  I trimmed of a load of the left over meat and froze it into tennis ball size bits - 200g and then froze the lot with the idea of going threw the bones and ribs as Kira got through them.  After the femur fiasco I reckon it will go to fox bait instead.

 

She loves playing/chewing with the leg and hoof with skin left in it.  The has nibbled the hooves a bit but nothing like the femur business.

Too much clearly because he's deposited vast amounts under normal circumstances today too. He got into the spare food bags upstairs a couple of weeks ago. Might check those again.

 

 

Now I think about it, the lads who took him to the shop could have easily fed him a sandwich and scratchcard without me knowing.

There was a proper skank on a Crew few years ago that used to keep his dog in the wagon and one of the contractors gave him a sausage laxative through the window.

Poor little chap shit the whole cab up.

F#c*in funny tho....🤮

 He looks bright enough.

 

My granddaughter's pack this morning:

 

The Hooligan, The Princess and The Old Man.

 

If it weren't for the constant whoosh of the M3 one might think it was in Scotland rather than one of the most populated places on earth.

I’m very jealous of the guys who have made it work for them! I had visions of my vizsla being a work dog however totally the wrong breed! I was aware of their specific breed characteristics however thought I could train him….. I was wrong! Thankfully the wife works from home mostly so it worked out but point of the post is really pay attention to the breed and how you can make sure his/her life is fulfilled not the other way around.

Been a spaniel man all my life .  8 working cockers and 1 sprocker . You have to study your dogs what ever the breed .

I have a brand new collie, but I think it might be defective, or part sloth at least.

 

He's so happy to be left asleep in the van.

Sounds like a collie that gets enough engagement and exercise outwith work hours.
