Gordonmom Posted October 1, 2002 Posted October 1, 2002 I have to tell you guys this. We started a new class isn dog class last night and there is this little old lady with this pit bull. She has to be 100. One of the other people in class asked her what kind of dog it was, and she says "Pit bull. I raise them" And she is just a training, and the rest of the class doesn't know what to think. I am just cracking up!! :lol: :lol: Quote
Smooshie Posted October 1, 2002 Posted October 1, 2002 :lol: :lol: Good for her! I bet she turns heads though 8) I have this mental image of the Bugs Bunny cartoons with Granny and Spike the Bulldog.... Come to think of it I saw a Biker with a teacup Yorkie once....he even had a bow in his hair (err...the DOG not the Biker :wink: ).......had the same effect Quote
Bensam Posted October 2, 2002 Posted October 2, 2002 Steady on there, Gordonmum, How old are you? No disrespect meant, but my grandkids reckon I'm 100 and I remember when I was young (yes, I can remember back that far!) thinking that anyone over about 45 was absolutely ancient! Now, of course, anyone under about 30 is still a kid to me. I cant believe the ages of my own children, I say they aren't my kids, just relations (kidding of course) then the 19 grankids line up and I have to give in. You're only as old as you feel, OK so some days the 100 tag fits. Gordonmum I'm guessing you have Gordon Setters, I had them a while ago, lost the last one to cancer about 9 years back, just broke my heart, that girl was not a dog, but one of my best friends. Have always had Min. Pinschers as well, and never tried to replace my last Gordon. Anyway getting too slow to run with a big dog in the showring! Quote
ShadyLady Posted October 2, 2002 Posted October 2, 2002 hey Bensam How are you ? Ive got the giggles up with a mental picture of granny and the pit :lol: :lol: :lol: Only 2 more days till Seymour nerves havent kicked in yet !! What sort of class you doing ? Quote
Bensam Posted October 2, 2002 Posted October 2, 2002 Hello, Koolie, It does conjure up some great thoughts, that's why I'm now walking around the ring with small dogs, a couple of times of collapsing in the steward's arms totally out of breath after a couple of laps with a big dog gave everyone else the giggles so bowed out of the race gracefully. Good luck at Seymour, let me know how you go. I'm not entered anywhere at the moment. Quote
Gordonmom Posted October 2, 2002 Author Posted October 2, 2002 Welllll....OK, 47. But a young 47. :lol: :lol: Quote
Gordonmom Posted October 2, 2002 Author Posted October 2, 2002 Yes Bensam, I do have Gordons! They are a lot of dog! My girls breeder raised them until she was seventy. She used to have and area called the paddack that she would let them play in, so they wouldn't get lost on her 80 acres. Well, one day one of the dogs jumped on her when she was putting him in there, and it wound up that he was free, and she was locked inside because he had jammed the door. Her husband was mowing the lawn so he didn't hear her screaming! Then when she got out, the same dog jumped up again and knocked her out cold! So now she raises Cotons :lol: I have been trying to figure out what smaller dog I will eventually go to. I don't know, I'm a big dog kinda gal. And training thos small dogs in obedience is murder on your back! Quote
mouseatthebusstop Posted October 2, 2002 Posted October 2, 2002 I WAS THINKING THE SAME AS BENSAM. YOU MUST BE YOUNG. ALSO PEOPLE MUST THINK THE SAME OF ME AT CLASS NIGHT BUT I NOW FIND I AM ONLY A FEW YEARS OLDER THAN YOU. EVERY DOG YOU GET YOU TAKE TO CLASSES YOU DO NOT JUST TAKE THE FIRST DOG THEN PASS YOUR SKILLS ON TO YOUR NEXT. HE OR SHE GOES TO CLASES TOO :) :) :) :) I LAUGHED SO MUCH Quote
