Mine kinda sums up the experience of multi-dog ownership. Wife's got three, daughter's got one. We're a family of caring, responsible pet lovers who share all aspects of looking after the little darlings. Apart, that is, from taking them out on the other 300-odd nights a year when its too cold/wet/inconvenient and muggins winds up doing it.

Gotta love Highlander.

First, you have Sean Connery (a real Scottish man), playing the part of an Egyptian immortal, who has assumed a distinctly Spanish name.

Next, you have Christophe Lambert (a French man), playing the part of a Scottish immortal.

If that wasn't enough, you have Clancy Brown (an American man), playing the part of an immortal born as a brutal tribesman from Russia, who was posing as a member of the Scottish Clan Fraser.

Anyone want a better example of globalization? :cheesy:

I'm a fairly open minded guy and have seen a lot of goo, blood and nasties in my time but when we look after dogs for people (see I do like them) the handling of the turds through waffer-thin nappy sacks and the accompanying odour is probably the biggest reason not to have one. Having a very 'close to' spewing up incident on Boxing day morning was enough for me :shock:

The last dog we sitted was an ace at 'parking' it's breakfast under bushes or hedges so i just let those ones mellow for a while :supafrisk:

This is why I like cats more - they go and crap in a quiet, hidden little corner of your garden, first making sure nobody is watching, and then they bury it so it doesn't bother you.

I like dogs too, but they are far more dependant on you caring for them, feeding them, and all that kinda pet-related stuff than a cat is.

P.S. don't keep tropical fish. They're every bit as nasty as the foulest, slobberiest, most dihorretic dog you could possibly encounter :(

Fixed for accuracy :lol: :lol:

I have got tropical fish but to be honest I've let the stock run right down now to 4 pathetic looking neon's due to lack of interest :roll: the cleaning of the tank is a pain and it only ever looks any good after a water change and new plants etc. strangely an underwater Snail found it's way in to the tank with some newplants recently and at the last count I had 80 Snails :shock: begging the question "do snails reproduce by themselves"? :?
