Bully Brothers I never had..

Just wanted to share with you some of my family that I never met, this is Jax the Mini English BullTerrier and Harlem a full size Bully.  Both dogs were rescued and given a second chance, I think that adopting a pet that has been subject to cruelty is an amazing thing!!  Would have been good to meet them but never got the chance, anyway i'm sure wherever they are now they are much happier!!

My Uncle Max the Boxer!

I wanted to share with you some pictures of my Uncle Max.  He is a boxer dog!  Max was born December 29th 1999 so that makes him 12 years old.  Max has been around some time now and had a great life.  He's one of the most loyal, disciplined and loving dogs I know.  Max recently had some health issues, but thankfully he's doing ok now, he is getting old but I hope he continues to  be the happy Boxer he is.  When I grow up (if I ever do) I'd like to be just like him..  Pictures and Breed information below.

 

About the Breed


The Boxer is happy, high-spirited, playful, curious and energetic. Highly intelligent, eager and quick to learn. The Boxer is a good dog for competitive obedience. Constantly on the move, bonding very closely with the family. Loyal and affectionate, Boxers are known for the way they get along so well with children.  This breed is noted for courage and make great guard dogs. Boxers have a wide use in military and police work. They are extremely athletic, sometimes even in their old age. This dog needs to go on a daily pack walk. Daily mental and physical exercise is paramount. Without it, the Boxer will become high strung. This breed requires a dominant owner. Training should start young and be firm and consistent. The objective in training this dog is to achieve a pack leader status. 

Ashleigh and Pudsey WIN Britain's Got Talent 2012

Dancing dog trick act Ashleigh and Pudsey have won ITV's Britain's Got Talent, scooping a £500,000 prize.

Ashleigh Butler, 17, trained her pet to jump and dance for their elaborate routine, performed to Lalo Schifrin's Mission Impossible theme.

Judge Simon Cowell said the pair, from Northamptonshire, were one of his "favourite ever acts".

The television audience peaked at 14.5 million, said ITV. The pair will appear in the Royal Variety Performance.

Butler cried when presenters Ant and Dec announced her win.

She said: "I just want to say thank you to everyone that voted for me, and I'm just so proud of Pudsey."

Butler hugged her dog and said: "I love you."

She said Pudsey - a border collie, bichon frise and Chinese crested cross - had become "very diva-ish" during the last week, and had been demanding steak dinners.
