Took Max for a mooch down to Ellesmere ( Shropshire ) yesterday, local beauty spot described as the Shropshire lake district, I grew up around these parts and it's truly stunning
We were having a lovely time paddling in the mere until Duckzilla ran Max out of the water squakking and flapping his wings
Max tried to get back in, but Duckzilla was soon back 'wiv da heavies'
The Geese didn't like him either
The swans weren't fussed
Well earned rest after all that malarkey

I guessed, was just pulling your legIt's his waterbowl
Does your dog go diving? Back when my labrador (short and stocky working breed one) was still alive she would love to go diving for rocks when down at the river
She never got the same rocks... but she still enjoyed doing it, not sure if it's a one off as I haven't heard of other dogs doing it.
Awww bless herI guessed, was just pulling your leg

Max is in no fit state to be diving.... He forgot he's not a young dog anymore and tried bouncing about in the mere with a couple of pups, could barely walk today, and lost his footing coming down the stairs... I'm always worried about dysplasia, but we took him to the vet who said it's normal wear and tear for a dog his age ( he's 9 ) and to rest him!

Leave him alone, the geese in Ellesmere are fierce. They managed to chase me off once
Evil creatures they are I know... Not long had chicks so they are even more feistyLeave him alone, the geese in Ellesmere are fierce. They managed to chase me off once
In six months Max will have the last laugh... tasty!

Naa the feathers get caught in his teeth
My old dog used to "dive" for his ball... was hilarious!
It was the first time ever he decided to chase after a stick, he's never shown interest in sticks whatsoever... The vet said no sign of dysplasia thank goodness, he'd pulled a tendon in his leg, after a few days rest he's back to himself.... made us realise he's not getting any younger though and want to help his joints a bit, he's got kibble with glucosamine, and i'm going to ask the vet if he can have seraquin supplements alongside his epiphen, he may say he won't need it alongside the glucosamine, but just want to check it would be safe...Jon's also ordered him a magnotherapy bed.
One spoilt bloody dog!
