Stop it, you lot! :lol2:  I'm tempted, but no, Angel is only 10 months, it wouldn't be fair on him!

I think she means that he might not do so well with an excitable/younger dog.???

I could be completley wrong though he does look lovely though!such a dignified old guy!

He would be lovely Lisa!

it is a shame though!

I try not too look too much on rescue sites etc not because i dont want to know but because my heart will rule my head and having just got my first dog ( Marty the 7 month old cocker spaniel lol) I think one will be enough until I'm like one of those reclusive cat ladies you hear about ... except with dogs.. living in the country surrounded my all sorts of dogs!


P.s: I have nothing against cat ladies, i'm more of a dog kinda girl!

I can definitely recommend an older Cocker from Dogs Trust! :D

I'm tempted myself, but I'll need to speak to OH. Although that didn't stop me last time, I only told him we were getting Gari after we'd got him! :005:

It'd be lovely if Dukey could end up with a COL member, so we could hear how he's getting on.

I've been trying to ring them, but can't get through to even leave a message. I just need to ask a couple of questions: if he is ok to travel that far and if he can be left for 4-5 hours whilst I am at work. It is possible they could transfer him to Glasgow for rehoming and we could do the meeting with Gari here, it has been done before. I might ring my old boss. :D

OH will kill me...! :005:

I finally got through. They said he was just transferred there from a Scottish centre! It couldn't have been Glasgow or my friend there would have told me. They said they don't have his handover form (I don't believe that) and that he hasn't been assessed, she can't tell me if he is good with dogs (it says on the website he loves them) or can be left alone, basically they claim to know nothing about him. ::)

However, I have a reserve on him pending assessment! :D :luv:

OH will extra kill me now! :lol2:

PS Tried ringing ex boss to see if she can pull strings, but it's her day off.
