Some dogs are meant to be all gooey and sweet but others are more true to their natural canine instincts - to bite, to hunt, to chase cats, to attack postmen and bark like dervishes. It is clear that you fall into the second category so be loud and proud! Go Paddy!<br />Best wishes,<br />Professor Pudding (Animal Behaviourist - University of Goole)Yorkshire Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019673884543913089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7169036.post-65452720366957104982012-10-15T23:44:28.945+01:002012-10-15T23:44:28.945+01:00I think the oldies will have to bend down too far ...I think the oldies will have to bend down too far to stroke the little fellow and Paddy would have been much more suitable.

So long as a dog has an equable character and charm to match, what's not to like? They say pets reflect their owners, and on that basis, your presence would have been equally as equable and charming. And what's not to like about that?<br /><br />I wonder what your assessor would have made of the rabbit I borrowed for an unofficial residential-cum- nursing home visit. Though it performed miracles for the purpose, the staff, many of whom I did not know existed, also came out of the woodwork and were animated about the 'guest' I was in charge of.<br /><br />I think it was a lovely idea and good of you to try.<br /><br />ZACLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07289333819869440699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7169036.post-1809661071559336262012-10-15T12:51:19.122+01:002012-10-15T12:51:19.122+01:00Ooops! ;)Ooops! ;)Jennytchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13621488409334115930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7169036.post-37638231335571976312012-10-15T10:55:57.375+01:002012-10-15T10:55:57.375+01:00Now then Paddy, I know you're disappointed, bu...Now then Paddy, I know you're disappointed, but that's no excuse for racist language.

He is in heaven being stroked and petted. He did pull slightly when I had to walk him around. The assessment was done in the local Pets at Home store, so lots of interesting smells!Jennytchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13621488409334115930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7169036.post-28733836626416426912012-10-15T05:34:12.495+01:002012-10-15T05:34:12.495+01:00Bloody people.
