had this conversation over the weekend and thought it would make a good thread - here's some of mine ... the dog biscuit tin is bigger than the family biscuit tin ... there are muddy paw marks on the floor even in drought ... all your wooden spoons have been reduced to splinters suggestions anyone?
Re: You know you're a labrador owner when... You know you are a labrador owner when every item of clothing you possess is decorated with red hairs. (Yes its moulting time again)
Re: You know you're a labrador owner when... when you wonder why your handbag is heavy and find a dummy in it
Re: You know you're a labrador owner when... You know you are a Labrador owner when you come into the drawing room to find her sitting with the cushion cover in her mouth and the room awash with feathers!
Re: You know you're a labrador owner when... You know you are a Labrador owner when every pocket in every item of clothing contains treats and your coat is covered in slaver marks !
Re: You know you're a labrador owner when... You know you're a labrador owner when packing the dogs bag takes as long as packing yours: treats, slip leads, food, dummies, more food, different dummies in case he's feeling fussy, more food, oh and more treats too btw on the moulting front, my hoover has never seen so much action (I'm not exactly a domestic goddess!) and what do I do when it's too warm for all those coats with the treats and dummies them?!
Re: You know you're a labrador owner when... bum bag for the treats - not sexy nor glamorous but useful. I have one with multi pockets for poo bags, disposable gloves and biggest pocket of course for treats, and small one for the door key, spare whistle. kit bag or back pack for the dummies ;D
Re: You know you're a labrador owner when... So you know you're a lab owner if...you own a bum bag and actually use it. ;o) The dummy in the handbag made me laugh ) How about...you can't reach into your coat pocket for anything, without three pieces of kibble coming out with it. (not cool in River Island...)
Re: You know you're a labrador owner when... All very well for you black dog owners! Or even those that are a nice shade of lemon. Mine is ginger!!
Re: You know you're a labrador owner when... well I an only get half way Pippa - I have a ginger & a black so actually I can never win last summer my lovely white skirt didn't come out of the wardrobe once! you also know you're a lab owner when your best buy in clothes this year was a pair of overtrousers to keep clean and dry (ish)!
Re: You know you're a labrador owner when... I can't get into my waterproofs any more my tummy's too big (7 months now!) Luckily my dads loaned my a big Barbour which almost meets my boots And black is def a good clothes option.....can I make all the floors black to hide the furballs tho.........
Re: You know you're a labrador owner when... Have you thought of using the wax leggings that pop on individually over each leg, and fasten to a belt? They wouldn't be affected by the bump - and will also still be useable once bump has gone! I knew I was a lab owner today when I opened a cupboard in the utility room to take out the washing liquid, and a slip lead fell on my head....
Re: You know you're a labrador owner when... .......... she stands in a stagnant ditch up to her tummy and then plunges her head under water, shakes it around under water, comes up head covered in green weed and then runs around like a mad thing with tail wagging and tongue hanging out! ;D
Re: You know you're a labrador owner when... your dog wolfs his breakfast down as normal but leaves a morsel in the bowl and doesn't lick it clean and you worry he's off his food!
Re: You know you're a labrador owner when... I know I'm a labrador owner because I can't let my hands hang at my sides without Rocket sticking a cold snotty nose in them to see if I have treats.
Re: You know you're a labrador owner when... when you have a collection of balls in the garden yet have never ever brought one!
Re: You know you're a labrador owner when... .... you take your eye off the ball for just one second and the next thing you know is she is rocketing past you with most of a cooked chicken in her mouth which she has just thieved from a dustbin at the farm cottages. --- when you give chase and she figures she's lost it unless she does something drastic and so she eats it in two bites! (Fingers crossed there are no bone issues but I don't think she chewed them when she swallowed it!)
