Thank you Leanne - that is very kind (I think lol) Don't be afrad to post - if I can get away with taking the mickey out of Muffey and her coiffeured pooch then you can surely muster the strength to post lol

Errol I cordially invite you to my house, along with your good lady wife, to meet said Poodle and I challenge you not to be totally besotted with her once you know her.

Even my die hard poodle hating sister makes an exception for Scarlett xx

Leanne jump on hon. You'll always be welcome.

Errol makes me laugh all the time.

He sometimes plays the devils advocate but he's always interesting and amusing.

He's up there for me as one of my favourite posters on this board.

I may not always agree with him but I always find him either interesting or amusing xx

I think poddles have a mind of their own and in some ways are quite fickle - take them on face value as a breed that flounces around and doesn't care what it does then ok but I am just not a big fan

errol you have a wicked sense of humour! i'm always reading these threads but never post, too scared! Just had to say though lol. Been on here 2 years lol

And as for the gerbils - well!

My OH didn't want me to get a Poodle. He was not happy at all. However I'd just lost my old lady and was in floods of tears night after night. So finally he relented.

I adore collies but couldn't face another. I wanted a dog totally different to the one I'd lost.

My Scarlett was like a breath of fresh air. Everyone who meets her adores her;.................

that's until they find out she's a Poodle lol xx

ROFLMAO
xx

PMPL Oh Muffy I dont know what to say. I love animals dearly and can understand the rabbits but the poodle ....

Muffy my niece has a house rabbit but it hates her partner with a passion. He is with the forces and spends a lot of time in Iraq. He gets more wound up about the rabbit from hell deliberately weeing on his kit than he does about dangers in foreign climes - does that tell us something about our forces.
Beep "Squadron Leader Smith take out that bunker"
Beep "No sir, I must nuke the rabbit hutch first for I believe it to contain a secret cell of suicidal rabbit crappers"

I have to defend poodles here. pmsl.They are highly underestimated. They are after collies the second most intelligent breed.

My poodle does not have bobbles or any stupid type of hair cut. She certainly does NOT wear bows in her hair. She's a real dog. In fact you would not recognise her as a poodle at all she just looks like a shaggy red ball of fluff most of the time lol I love poodles. Collies are my all time faves but Poodles are soooooooooo playful and charming. Not the yappy little beasts people assume they will be. xx

Muffy you have a poodle ...... I cant stop laughing I thought you were such a sane person!!!

I used to have a house rabbit. They are great house pets too.

I have the Flemish Giant, the Mini lop and 2 Guinea pigs in a run (with the option of separation if needed)and separate hutches for all. Usually though I give them the run of the whole space together. My garden isn't huge but it's about 60ft long and the run is about 40ft long plus about 5 ft wide. I'm a real saddo lol xx

Awww muffy she sounds lovely you will have to show me a pic of her sometime :o)

Mine are house rabbits shocks people who come to the door and sees rabbits hopping about lol

Errol !!!!!! I've just splattered my screen with vino hon.

Sooooooooooooo funny lololololol

My poor collie lololol x

Jax I wanted a Flemish giant for years but they need soooo much space. OH finally relented and built the run so I could get one . She's like a little puppy. Size wise as well as personality. She's too heavy to pick up but she ambles over and climbs on our laps for a cuddle.

She gets through a cabbage and about 5 carrots daily plus dry food lol. High maintenance that's for sure but worth it - she's adorable xx

NO MORE THAN NORMAL

lol xx

I can see it now.
Collie strides into field full of sheep, sporting boufant hairdo and saying woof woof rar rar rar (roughly translated means right you 'orrible lot I am a big bad Collie and you WILL all get into that pen now)
Poddle (also with new hairdo) stands at gate saying - ooh you are so butch, go for it and slap their cloven hooves to boot.
Sheep just grin inanely and say bring it on you girly puff - we have a number one every summer.

aaaw Cazzles.I remember hon.

He was the bain of my life at times and things are much quieter and more laid back here now.

It's good in one way but bleedy hard in another. I don't miss the poo clearing though I have to say. Though I do miss his silly face and his funny ways xx

Wow i saw a flemish giant at longleat they are massive, ive got 3 lionheads and nearly bought a fourth the other day but i didnt want a male well i did nath wouldnt let me lol

I think its lovely how you include your pets in the family hun xxxx
