LisaLQ Posted May 17, 2003 Author Posted May 17, 2003 Thanks everyone! :D Prairie_Gurl - that would be lovely, as it would mean me having to come over to the States - something I've always wanted to do! Sadly bank balance, and lack of babysitter means that wont be possible, but thanks for the offer :lol: Greyhounds make lovely pets, Badger is only part greyhound, but even so, he's got the laid back and friendly attitude :D Quote
Prairie_Gurl Posted May 17, 2003 Posted May 17, 2003 I could always come over there. Loved to go to Europe one day, and I think I can fit in a suitcase. lol. Quote

LisaLQ Posted May 18, 2003 Author Posted May 18, 2003 Hi Jen - lurchers are fab aren't they? :D Badger isn't coming home til Tuesday, he's in Cambridgeshire, so he's a long way from us, and not having a car, we haven't met him yet - but we've been "homechecked" (apparently it wasn't a formal one as they knew we'd be ok before they came) and they have met Sky and the babies and think he'll be fine :) Can't wait and I will post pics as soon as I have some :D Quote

Hard work yet to come housetraining etc, but I'm sure he'll catch on quickly. Will post more when something happens, maybe tomorrow when he comes home :D Quote

LisaLQ Posted May 22, 2003 Author Posted May 22, 2003 Sorry - got a bit carried away on the pictures forum! Yup - Badger is home, he's fab - very loving, no mess in the house yet, ok with the kids, and getting on with Sky. He's trying today to become top dog, but not getting anywhere, they're not fighting though :) I have some new pics, cant remember if I posted them here or not, but if not I'll do it tonight or tomorrow :) Quote
jen Posted May 22, 2003 Posted May 22, 2003 OH I`M SOOOOOOO PLEASED FOR YOU LISA, GIVE BADGER AND SKY A BIG KISS AND HUG FROM ME :wink: [img]http://www.smilies-world.de/Smilies/Smilies_gross_1/a_smil14.gif[/img] Quote
Rosebud Posted May 22, 2003 Posted May 22, 2003 :D Yiiiiiiiiiiiiippppppppeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Now go to the How many dogs posts and add him to the total. :angel: Quote
LisaLQ Posted May 22, 2003 Author Posted May 22, 2003 Will send those kisses and hugs on the way for Sky and Badger - have added Badger to the grand total - yipeeee! Badger had a little attempt at trying to be boss dog, but Sky didn't even attempt to show who was boss, she just looked at him as if to say "Yeah, right, you think you're boss do you? Hmmph - never!"... He's a little blighter when it comes to food, you cant eat without him trying to pinch it, but we just said "No!" - not shouting, but a deeper voice than normal, and he stopped - although he went on to do it the next time, he stopped when we said no again. He's a good lad, he just needs a few manners - little bit of training, nothing big :D Quote
jen Posted May 23, 2003 Posted May 23, 2003 that`s great [img]newshttp://www.smilies-world.de/Smilies/Smilies_klein_1/ylflower.gif[/img] sounds like your little boy just needs his manner`s polishing up, looks like he`s gonna be a lovley addition to your family :angel: can`t wait to see more pics....perhaps of sky and badger together [img]http://www.smilies-world.de/Smilies/Usersmilies/Rafael/03/Flahssssss.gif[/img] [img]http://www.smilies-world.de/Smilies/Smilies_klein_1/band.gif[/img] Quote
