Greetings from the midlands UK

Post by LexMark »

Hi everyone,

Both myself and my partner will be using this forum since I last posted we have gone ahead and adopted the brindle boy in the picture section - he certainly needs plenty of work.

We have the boy and we have a lab type bitch who was meant to be a golden lab and turned out to be a ginger thing but very pleasing never the less!

:) hopefully we'll be able to share some excellent things together on the forum :)

His name is Oscar, when I talk about him I sometimes call him bear because that's what he reminds me of, and the bitch Lab is Lucy, who I call princess when I talk about her because she's all prim and proper and doesn't walk in puddles or anything lol :) thanks for the greetings guys :) x

I have been thinking about your names, Lexi and Mark, and it took me a while to realize why the combination sounded so familiar. It all of a sudden dawned on me. Greys anatomy. :mrgreen: (Did that show make it to the UK yet?)

Thanks guys sorry I've not been around for a while.

I think it's on TV over here but we don't really watch tv lol! (dogs are a right handful mixed with work)

We do have a lot of nice paces to exercise our dogs we are so lucky :)

Great Jenny,

We know the area :) Yes he's certainly different especially with him being rescued from Spain! He fears normal things like cardboard boxes but is more than happy to just trot into the vets. baffles me :huh: lol

any helpful tips you would like to share? :)
