Many thanks to all who send vibes & good wishes.
The Basildon PDSA was an education......
loads of bull breeds - all with their plums proudly on display.
Plus the chi/ yorkie / jrt crosses on the girlie`s laps.
I thought I`d walked into a Daily Mail cartoon for a minute.
And I kept my mouth shut... right up till a large woman marched over to a girlie with a jrt pup and told her she had to make sure she and her children put their hands in its food every time it ate.
I recommended she didn`t and the woman got very irate with me and told me her staffie didn`t get possessive round food even when the two year old stabbed it with a fork at a Barbeque.
Both I and the woman boasting of having the 5 bulldog puppes at that point told her the child would have got a good smack and my friend had to leave before she strangled someone......
And the receptionist refused to accept my bus pass (photo ID), library card (signature) and visa cards as proof of who I was, so made us wait for 2 hours while she checked...
Ruddy dog`s going private next time. Even if I have to sell one of the kids.

So pleased to hear he's on the mend. What a worry. X

If you find someone to buy the kids give me a nod as I have a few here spare

That was an experience and I thought Harlow was bad.

You did very well under the circumstances. Gorden said what did she want as ID then ?

Maybe one of the kids to a DNA test ?

What a fright for you, Claire! Glad Shamus is home now and back to his usual self. Fingers crossed for his blood results now. xx

How's Shamus doing?
