To every good man a good dog....
Apologies to the axeman for pinching his sig...
A story that warmed my heart.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/w...ds/6239209.stmA pet labrador has been returned to his Black Country owner after being missing for 18 months.
Dill disappeared from his home in Kingswinford near Dudley in July 2005 and had not been seen since.
I thought that this may cheer up those amongst us, who have lost 'best friends' this last 12 months.
There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

Heh. What happens in Dogville, stays in Dogville. Thanks for the good news, InsaneApache."It's just a total mystery where he has been and what he had been up to," added Ms Brownhill.
Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.

Lovely story, IA.
I'd always thought about calling a dog Dill. Couldn't find a lion that I could name Parsley first, though.

Good story. Labs are the foundation of Dogdom.

Here's one I made earlier
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article...536147,00.htmlThe king of the jungle showed his romantic side when he reached through the bars of his cage in Cali, Colombia, and clasped Ana Julia Torres in his giant paws to give her a kiss.
Ms Torres earned the affection of Jupiter, a 110kg (242lb) African lion, by nursing him back to health after rescuing him from a circus. He is one of about 800 maltreated residents at her Villa Lorena animal shelter in a poor suburb of the city.
Ms Torres, a teacher who began nursing abused animals ten years ago, says that she takes in everything from limbless flamingos to blind monkeys.
Jupiter is relatively lucky compared with a mountain lion that had been kept illegally as a pet. Its two front legs were hacked off after it clawed at a family member’s face.
Ms Torres funds the shelter with her salary, bolstered by donations. But she is adamant that it will not open to the public. “We want the animals to live in peace. This is a paradise where they can finally rest.”
I think I like this lady.
