The first dog is Ted, "my" English Spring Spaniel. The second is "my wife's" dog, Ralph. He's a Cocker. Both of them are working strain and both work.

He's been to the vet with his waxey earhole today. Just spoken to Sarah and she says he had some wax loosening gunk massaged in to the offending lughole (which he loved) and proceeded to shake (like dogs do) and shower her, the vet and the consulting room with foamy, brown, stinky, sticky goo. Good old Ted!

I miss my mutt, so far resisted getting another trying to wait until nest year but having never been without a dog it's not easy.

Not too sure Mrs Aus will be too chuffed to be included in this thread ... but love them all

Great pictures GOON. Last ones a cracker. I laughed like hell at boxers on guard duty. I got a boxer too and he's hopeless security wise, I reckon he'd show a burgler where I keep my car keys lol.

I reckon half my posts on this forum are of my dog!

From Cardiff pound. Enjoys forest runs and cheeky bike rides. Not a great fan of our chickens though!

Really good thread, I do like dog pics, they always look happy 😀

hoping to get a replacement for my Lab that I had to put down last year with a cocker spaniel in the next couple of weeks 😉

Also have a Yorkie terrier that thinks it's a lab so hoping they'll get on!!

Great pics everyone! Sadly my dog, Morris the Golden Retriever died today but all your photos remind me of the tremendous fun we had for over 14 years. I realised how ill he was when he turned down a doughnut, he could devour the odd 5 (stolen!) when he saw his chance. Great memories! Brilliant dog!

Could a dog have been a better friend, a better companion, a better worker in the field (or at least a harder worker, regardless of results!)? I doubt it. What a chap he was. Chasing the eternal rabbit, but never to be forgotten!

when he was abandoned at 13 weeks of age

but he's grown up a bit now

and has a big brother also

Loving this thread.

loving yours Taylorplayer, Sorry for your loss teagirl.

Sorry to hear about your loss teagirl- i cant imagine what it would be like to loose my little finn.

You will just need to remember about all the fun times! 🙂

And at 6 months.He is now 10 months old,40kgs and still growing 😯 .He's going to be a big'un.

Thanks for your kindness, chaps. My Flat-coat Retriever is missing him too.

I love dogs. Andy that ridgeback is a very handsome dog!
Here's my bull terrier X mongrel having a swimfetch
[IMG] [/IMG]
He has a very big head.

Introducing Brad - this was 4 moths before he got run over. Seeing a dog go from this to what he is now makes me heartbroken but he is still with us causing chaos and destroying the house. He had 3 homes before we got him but he wont be having another one. If your thinking of a springer visit NESSR.net and give an old one a home.

This may sound soppy but being a dog owner i love seeing the love that comes thru from the owners of these dogs thru the pics.We may all be mountain biking nuts but these dogs share the passion and help define our love of the sport

Axl who is now 7 months and sulks if I go on the bike and don't take him. Another couple of months and he'll be able to come on most rides.

Dotty looks like a less hairy version of our lurcher Kea or as she's sometimes referred that "****ing hairy whippet"

This may sound soppy.....

I had to write a reflective piece for my English course - not much seems to move me emotionally so it could only be about one thing(some of the detail might seem over the top, but it met the brief).

[b]A New Home for the New Year[/b]

I first became aware of Locky in November 2008. My wife Judith and I were looking for a second dog as a companion for Ella, our female German Shepherd Dog who had come to us in July of that year. Ella was nine months old at this time and had grown to be an energetic young dog needing plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. We had by now become aware of the plight of the many homeless dogs in the dog pounds and the rescue centres - some would be re-homed, some would remain in kennels for lengthy periods of time, and unfortunately, some would be put to sleep through no fault of their own – their only crime being that they had been abandoned by their previous owners.

Locky was advertised on the SSPCA website, a nine year old GSD – Husky cross breed. It was only due to the fact that he was listed as a GSD that I showed any interest at all, the small grainy picture did nothing to capture my attention, and at nine years old I immediately decided that he was too old - too old to have the energy to play with a boisterous young dog, and too old to be taken for long walks. I also suspected that he’d probably be suffering from some medical condition at that age. And so I ignored him, didn’t mention him to Judith, and continued to browse the websites of the rescue organisations keeping a lookout for the right dog.

It was on Christmas Eve 2008 that Locky caught Judith’s attention. She’d been informed of him by Jess, a member of Biggsd – a virtual rescue organisation – the SSPCA were running his story in the local papers in the hope that the New Year would bring a new home for Locky. The story was accompanied by a picture of a big smiling dog in front of a Christmas tree with the centre’s manager. Jess had been to the centre and had met Locky; she informed us that he was an energetic fit dog who belied his age.

Judith immediately phoned the SSPCA centre at Peterden to arrange a visit to meet Locky. Unfortunately it was too late in the day to make the 50 mile journey from our home on Christmas Eve. The centre would be closed on both Christmas Day and Boxing Day, so we arranged to visit when the centre re-opened on Saturday the 27th December.

We were there waiting for the centre to open on the Saturday morning, myself, Judith and Ella. When the minute hand of my watch hit the hour, we walked through the doors and rang the bell at the reception desk. We introduced ourselves to one of the SSPCA officers; she was expecting us – but not quite as early.

We were asked to wait for a short time at reception while the SSPCA officer went off to muzzle Locky and take him from his kennel to the exercise area. We were then asked to muzzle Ella and invited to follow through to where Locky was waiting - a large grassed field secured by a twelve foot fence where the dogs could run and play in safety without the risk of escaping.

Although not tall, he was well built with a barrel like chest, almost purely black, except for the tan like markings on his lower legs resembling socks, and a tan mask on his face. He was running back and forth at the fence and barking with a playful bark. We entered the field and let Ella and Locky greet each other. They then play-bowed to each other and proceeded to take turn at chasing each other around the field. We removed the muzzles then allowed them to continue with their play as my prejudices about his age faded.

The SSPCA officer left the four of us alone to get to know each other. Judith and I stood next to each other in silence with big smiles on our faces watching them chase each other. They soon ran off their initial excitement and settled down in each others company. I knew that I wouldn’t be able to leave him in the kennels, in truth I’d known that from the moment I’d first laid my eyes on him. Locky had found his new home.
