ill give that a go thanks!!

Gems you can try taking the youngest for a walk first to tire her out a bit but i wouldn't worry too much, I used to have 24 schnauzer and cockers in a play paddock and they never came to any harm, the oldest would put the youngesti n their place when need be and Fran the alpha bitch would have the final say even with the bigger cockers. If you arewatching it should not be a problem anyway....you just call time

24!!! omg!

ruby has soo much energy being a working dog! even a walk dooesnt tire her lol!

[quote="Gems"]24!!! omg!

yes and that does not include Abigale the donkey.....I have pics somewhere but they are not very clear

OOOOOO please post, i LOVE donkeys!!

I have a great pic of Abi the donkey with Sabastian the cat on her back..I will post it when I can use a scanner. Abi was very norty, we used to live near Pilkingtons high security research lab in Lathom Lancashire, I washed Abi one day and she was covered in sudds..broke loose while I was getting the rinsing water and shot down the drive,up the road and through the security barrier at Pilkigtons The guards on the gate could not let me in to catch her without the required pass and I WML as they tried to catch her with her eyes rolling ears back covered in shampoo ..the guards were soaking wet and covered in sudds too when Abi finaly gave in and trotted back to me

pmsl mini great story

lol aww i do love donkeys!!

I was going to say I couldn't really answer that as have you ever seen two Staffords playing the only way they know how is rough, they often look & sound like they are killing each other lol.

But yes I do what Kazz & Staffy and say "enough" very loud and very firmly and they will stop, Cassy will often get too carried away in her playing and annoy Kip no end. This tends to do the trick very rarely do I have to say it more than once, "Dad" just has to walk in a room and say "right" and they stop and sit lol. He rules the roost
