Lol, can't control my finger. I see the cute face and I hit it every time. It's quiet now. Nothing I really want yet, but the way it's bidding now it's easier to control my finger because the prices can be out of control! There's something about these dogs that people who have them really love. I think it's their silly loving personality. What a tragedy that's happened to this breed. This breed won the 2014 Hero's Award last night, which was probably a re-run. ;D

BigWullie, I told you once my husband's nickname for me was dingy. Of course as a term of endearment.  ;D It's like my mother inlaw's good friend Pat, you would sware that she has some dingy moments, but give her a stock page, lol. I have  a girlfriend that was a Division 1 athlete and  played for our U.S. lacrosse team and played college basketball, smart and dingy. We laugh about it all the time.

The way they freely pass out “hero ribbons” now days, probably all the 2013 Ribbons were gone and they had to start giving out the 2014’s.  ;D ;D

I'm sure you've followed the news made by the Lady from Arizona that rescued the dog off the mountain. But since she is originally a hometown girl from right here I'll share it with you.

This is at an auction in England over the weekend

(http://lot-images.atgmedia.com/SR/12561/2893163/773-20131030171137_468x382.jpg)

Interesting to see what it goes for.

Can't wait. I'm curious too. The chain is to help frustrate the dog. I've read about that. They do that down south to make the dogs mean. It trains them to be guard dogs.

Yes, but what get's the dog there!  They would chain a female and a male near one another. Just far enough where they can't touch one another. Being not neuter or spayed,  it would make them crazy. These people had several methods of making several into guard dogs, not just pits.

It's so sad what they do to Pit bulls.  The same used to be with Dobermans.  I had a Doberman that I will never forget or stop loving.  They are both such beautiful dogs.  I hate what people do to them.

Ipcress how did the auction go?
Title: Re: My new postcard
Post by: Ipcress on November 03, 2013, 04:50:21 AM
I missed the damn thing because of a phone call. £160. Easily worth a few times more than that.

A similar bronze has fetched $2,000 recently.

I would have bought it for that!
