    Malinois/working line GSD…now I get it!😱

    Haha I had a lovely Gsd, who loved if not chewing giant tree branches to sawdust, had a penchant for chewing up galvanised milk buckets. It was amazing to see how the buckets were reshaped.

    Another fatal dog attack

    I know this is probably a silly question, but if you own one of these dogs that's going to be banned, what is the hardship to muzzle training, registering and walking on lead? Lots of other dogs either through the KC are registered, lots of dogs are walked muzzled and some like huskies are...

    Lister Liberty Lithium Battery Pack

    If they are lithium cells, please be careful lithium batteries are very dangerous if you damage the casings. They can go off like small bombs and are very hard to put out.

    Another fatal dog attack

    Yes, looking at it you could be right, I suppose the answers will only come out if the case goes to court, with the lady who was involved.
