A bad dream? is that all it was??

I wondered why it all seemed to go by so quickly, I'm not even 30 yet! :yh_party

<t>Sunray, I'm sorry to hear of your fury friends health. It's so sad when their bodies age, yet inside thier minds, they are like the puppies we first loved years ago.<br/>

Toby is sometimes left on his own, for a few hours a day. We have a baby gate in the kitchen, as Toby too leaves little ...

Awww, bats are so cute! <br/>

I'd sooner see more bats around this time of year, than spiders. At least bats don't hide behind bookcases waiting to frighten the living daylights out of an ...

<r>I still can't make my mind up on this one. I don't think I could go with the idea of hypnosis to find out if I have lived before, because I believe that to be unreliable. However, that doesn't prove that reincarnation doesn't exist. They idea of coming back here, though is pretty worrying. Just ...

However, they do their ...

<r>I've always been terrified of spiders, except when I was on holiday in Arizona. I went to a barbeque, where they had some tarantulas in glass tanks. Later in the evening, they let people handle the rather scary looking beasties. I felt brave, and wanted to overcome my fear. I was given 'Harry' to ...

<r>An article in the Daily Mail (UK) today, reported that the eight legged horrors are bigger this year, due to a mild winter last year, and a hot summer this year. <br/>

I always thought house spiders were big enough, so what size are they talking about? I'd dread to think! <br/>

<t>When a pet goes missing, it's such a worrying and sad time, and then so wonderful when they are found. Toby went missing one Good Friday, and turned up about three or four miles away in the next village. I was so greatful to the people who found him, and put him in thier field, until my dad was ...

Tobes gets walkies every day, treats and lots of fuss.

Screamer wrote: Is Toby 16 in that picture? If so, he's looking FAB!


That photo is a little old, Screamer, I think Toby was about 6 in that photo. But here's a more recent one, Toby at 15.

<r>I wondered if anyone would like to share their pet lost and found stories?<br/>
<br/>
I'll start with one of the times Toby, in his adventerous puppyhood, went missing.<br/>

A windy evening, our garden gate blew down, and Toby, who was in the garden at the time, decided to go out and ...

Uncle Kram wrote: Auf Weidersehen Pet was an absolute classic. Especially the original low-budget series


The low-budget original is my fave too. I've never seen the recent series, I can't imagine the show without Gary Holton, but might get around to watching it one day.

Awww! Adorable little Poochies, Banshee!

I've seen so many wonderful furry babies on this thread.

Here's Toby, he's 16 years old, but still seems to think hes a puppy!

I use Paint.Net, and find that pretty versatile.

Some years ago, when Toby was about ten, the vet said that Toby had a heart murmer, but it would be some time before it caused him any trouble. <br/>

Toby is a nervous dog, and gets very scared of the vets, but hopefully I can manage to calm him down ...

Bryan Ferry's 'As Time Goes By' Album

Very sad news, I was shocked when I heard. My nephew must be terribly upset, he was a real fan of him.

I voted for Comet from Full House. Comet is also in the film 'Fluke' and another not so well known film I like called 'My Ghost Dog'

Second choice would be Eddie from Frazier, but what about Doctor Who's companion K9? He deserves a vote.

<t>My dog, Toby (a collie cross), is sixteen; though he acts very much a puppy most of the time.<br/>

For a little while though, he has shown signs of weakness in his back legs, it appears as though he can't stand up properly. Then other times, Toby races about the house and jumps about, as ...

I think I may have been googling for a forum on 'Auf Wiedersehen Pet' I didn't find one, however. I guess there is only so much you can say about a TV series that has been and gone. Certainly no ...

Thank you for the lovely welcome messages!

This forum seems a fab and friendly place.

I just found this place today, whilst Googling for something else (I can't remember what). I'm glad I found it though, as there seems so many interesting and different topics.
