Hi Everybody. I met a lady whose french bulldog was stolen from outside a shop which she had just gone into after tying her dog to a post.

Hi all, I am desperately in need of some handyman type help to finish my building for sign-off, and would love to have someone camp here for free (power and water if required) if you can do some work on the house for an hourly rate we agree on.

I was quite cross today. Parked up with door open and two dogs came along and tried to come in. Of course, my dog went ape.

I found out last week, purely by chance, that we can take our dogs into Bunnings. Little ones can be in your trolly but bigger ones must have a muzzle. Great if you need parts to fix the rig.
