In fact do you know what it is???

If someone could tell me what the stereotypical cocker spaniel owner is, I shall tell you whether I fit it or not... if the stereotype is slightly frazzled and hoarse, then I definitely do:D
 
No idea what the sterotype for a cocker or for a Labrador really:confused: - I suppose it probably involves wax jackets and wellies!!;):D:D

In which case definitely not :eek::D- if however it is mud splattered, looking like you have been dragged through a hedge backwards and weather beaten whilst being the tiniest bit demented then I'm your girl!!:eek::cool:;):D:D:D
 
kirstyhen says that the typical Springer owner is a middle aged gent in Barbour and Wellies. My wellies are for when the fields are muddy and only used for turning out the horse. My Barbour is under the spare bed (I can't bear the smell of the wax!).

Middle aged-yes, everything else, no. The big dog does love his Mum and has always been 'my' dog, but doesn't do squirming, really. Apparently, my hair matches his so at least I look like my dog:

Well I live in my wellies but don't own a Barbour, although I do have a tweed jacket which almost counts. I'm not middle aged and definitely not a gent, and my springer does neither squirming nor worshipping! But I'll always have a springer :D
 
Is there even a stereotype for Border Terrior owners??

I will (in about 10 years) become that random woman on the yard who has an assortment of small hairy terriors following in her wake :)
 
Well with two Aussie blokes do you mean do I:

Catch Crocodiles with my bare hands?
Like 'concentrated yeast extract' on toast?
Live in a remote area?
Call anyone and everyone 'mate'?
Think of kangaroos as food?
Use my BBQ so much that there’s not pint in cleaning it?
Go camping more than once a month?
Think 20 Degrees Celcius is cold?
Get stranded for 3 days on my way to the shop because my car broke down and no one drove past?
Given up on deodorant and instead use roll on mosquito repellent?
Greet people with knuckle punches?
Think "Australian" is a language?
Swill large amounts of cold larger and insist its beer?
Only know my mates nick names?
Wear a hat with corks on it?
Remotely resemble Crocodile Dundee?


Nah Mate I’m nothing like them!!
 
Typical mal/sibe owner

Arms as long as a orangutans? check
Wardrobe an eskimo would be proud of? check
Knows all words and steps to a working snow dance? check
Hardly has a holiday during summer so she can have time off over working season? check
Hoover permanently attached to right hand? check
Can and will shout Haw at the top of their voice and not care what others think? check
Smiles good naturedly at anyone who says "you need a sled", "whos walking who" etc when you`ve heard it a million times and want to scream? check
Will happily claim that shes an addict and yes completely mad? check

They tried to make me go to rehab but I said no! no! no!
 
Aww I have a non digital (I know?! Did we really live in such times?!) that shows me, aged about 12, in cords, wellies, a ratty old jumper, flat cap and with Tinker dog on the end of a baler twine lead and collar combo, its hilarious, I'll have to see if I can hunt it down.

That said I am generally in wellies and a waxed jacket, covered in clay after lieing on my belly trying to drag the aforementioned terrier out of a hole... or screaming hoarsely across a field as she beggars off after a rabbit :o :rolleyes:
 
What is the stereotypical Jack Russell Terrier owner?

I think most dog people are wellied, jumpered, muddied, dog haired scruffs :p

If it's behavior stereotype then short fused and snappy but extremely affectionate then yes lol :p
 
If someone could tell me what the stereotype of a greyhound owner is I'd be happy to answer. :)

I do, however, fit stereotypical greyhound behaviour quite well. I'm normally to be found in my bed or generally relaxing but have the occasional moments of manic activity!
