How to get the dog back onboard

Yep I studied that - as you may perhaps say "bollocks" subject - at the School of Psychology at Southampton Uni for 3 years for a Post Grad Diploma (how can there be so much to know I hear you ask?!) and now earn my living making life better for people and their pets. And it bought me a RIB and my island home.

So YAY for all those crazy dog lovers like me. As we seem to be into sweeping national stereotypes of people in England, does that definition of non-anthropomorphic Irish Dog men include the ones that go badger baiting? For sure there's no anthropomorphism in dislocating a badger's jaw by hitting it with a heavy spade before setting the terries on it.Or this: That's not an appropriate video for 'ribs and ribbing'-Nos4r2


Glad you feel able to openly share your opinions Maximus, and I'm so pleased to see they are so different to mine.

Now... time for walkies :o)

S

Don't really understand that statement could you explain

Something similar could be made up (some kind of foam reinforced with pool noodles, perhaps?); just has to be something they can get on top of, and climb up over the tubes or transom.

jky
If anyone has a big dog I suggest they contact the Dorset Fire Brigade for advice on this - here they are pulling a pig out a pond yesterday.

Certainly not my best work, but I hope it will serve the purpose.
Its own weight keeps it in place, I'll attach a rope or lanyard to prevent it from dropping in deep water.
