A friend has contacted me...
Mike, a lass I know came to me last night asking if I'd like an eight month old , male husky.
The current owners life has changed so that they don't have the time to spend with him and he's becoming a handful!
Quite rightly he needs rehoming and training soon.
They don't want anything for him, just the help and care he needs.
So, if you or anyone you may know would like a husky let me know mate.

CREATION OF MANS BEST FRIEND
God summoned a beast from the field, and He said, "Behold - man is created in My image. Therefore, adore him.
You shall protect him in the wilderness, shepherd his flocks, watch over his children, accompany him wherever he may go, even into civilization. You shall be his companion, his ally, and his slave.
To do these things, I endow you with the instincts uncommon to other beasts: Faithfulness, Devotion, and Understanding, surpassing those of man himself.
Lest it impair your courage, you shall never foresee your death. Lest it impair your loyalty, you shall be blind to the faults of man. Lest it impair your understanding, you are denied the power of words. Speak to your master only through your mind and your honest eyes.
Walk by his side, sleep in his doorway, ward off his enemies, carry his burden, share his affliction, love, and comfort him. And in return for this, man will fulfill your needs and wants, which shall be only food, shelter, and affection.
So be a friend of man. Guide him through the perils along the way to this land I have promised him. This shall be your destiny and your immortality."
The dog heard and was content.

After years of patient tutelage from some great trainers and personal friends (and the occasional bellow of frustration), I recently applied for membership of the Guild of Dog Trainers.
This arrived last night...
Many thanks to Andy Row, Dion Burke, Cheryl Blake, Rod Dunn and many others I doubt not, for guiding me on the journey.

Welcome again to the Yellow Dog UK wonderful world of common sense. Would you go up to a stranger in the street and give her a hug or stick your hand in their face? Well I wouldn't but it happens all to often unfortunately with dogs .... What do you do when you can see someone approaching you and your dog?

Hot weather and dogs in cars etc. -
If the dog appears to be in distress, phone 999.
If you feel that the police may not arrive in time, remember that if you break a window, you may have to defend yourself in court over criminal damage.
However -
Legally, you can commit damage if you believe the car owner would consent to it if they knew the dog was in danger.
DON'T LEAVE DOGS IN CARS, CARAVANS OR CONSERVATORIES IN HOT WEATHER.
EVEN 22C OUTSIDE CAN BECOME 47C IN A VEHICLE IN A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME.

Although clever and quick to learn, dogs don't really have a moral construct.
A very clever boy!
