After all she eats wild birds when she catches one but doesn't eat any chicks we have, although you can sometimes see in her eyes the struggle going on in her brain ...

Forget all those silly little cutters and the bits in between, I shape into an approximate oblong and just cut them into squares. Totally agree, far lighter and of course I like it as it is easier.Campfirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06573797205145907726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468906973954014850.post-89597357556843388962013-09-20T17:24:18.002+01:002013-09-20T17:24:18.002+01:00umm I saw Frankie swallow a whole mouse & felt...umm I saw Frankie swallow a whole mouse & felt rather sick so that would have been worse !<br />Funny just as I looked at the exercises Joe was giving me a demonstration with his weights saying he will teach me !BadPennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09889591351222591488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468906973954014850.post-83013162671941903722013-09-20T15:43:50.152+01:002013-09-20T15:43:50.152+01:00Strange, they usually start eating the head first....Strange, they usually start eating the head first.cumbrianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10047500383078884463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468906973954014850.post-22154214002217513952013-09-20T14:57:15.717+01:002013-09-20T14:57:15.717+01:00Ha Ha Oh my.

When I try to exersize anything that requires laying face up, my boxer dog stands over me and stares me right in the face putting her large jowl over my nose to look in my eyes and I get a case of the giggles ! My tiny 3 lb dog then jumps up and down on my tummy and my other more dignified older dog stares at me from a distance as if to say "I am having non of that silliness ! " . Needless to say if I want to seriously do floor exersizes the dogs must be in another room.Willowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02507537074005136610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468906973954014850.post-65021077696571818612013-09-20T14:13:13.205+01:002013-09-20T14:13:13.205+01:00I have a sneaky suspicion something new has been n...I have a sneaky suspicion something new has been nibbling in the garden.

We were looking at getting a Border Terrier when we got our dog, but decided against a terrier in the end as we have a couple of pet rabbits, they don't mix well. We ended up getting a Cavalier instead, he wouldn't get anywhere near a rabbit the speed he goes.

We had a cat (sadly now deceased and hunting in Cat Heaven) who would go get his own food if I was not on time with his meals. He preferred dining wild and he always amazed us with his menu. He amazed the other 2 cats as well who look at him admiringly whilst he devoured some poor prey. At least your dog does not bring them through the cat flap1 Minerva xLeeAnn at Mrs Black's https://www.blogger.com/profile/05923451542086673198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468906973954014850.post-41849006985071977792013-09-20T11:18:00.249+01:002013-09-20T11:18:00.249+01:00Once you get going on the growing veg' side of...Once you get going on the growing veg' side of life, you may appreciate a rabbit hunting companion!Rupert Neil Bumfreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04460239805603476978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468906973954014850.post-40813717517144172522013-09-20T10:31:31.254+01:002013-09-20T10:31:31.254+01:00Yuk, yuk, yuk, right enough... says I, who often s...Yuk, yuk, yuk, right enough... says I, who often sees the cat running along the wall with the tail of a lizard wriggling from out the side of her mouth.
