Hey Rich, how old is your GSD?

She is 8 this year, most beautiful nature I’ve ever known in a dog. The weenie hounds are deadly

These were taken @ Goodwood Festival of Speed in the top paddock.

With Karun Chandhok, who spent some time chatting to Billy.

Some Bike racers checking out Billy’s F3 car mods …

What a beauty, I just noticed the pics from 8 weeks to 8 months. We are still at the 9 week stage with the other little horror. Certainly makes for a lively household. GSD are a fabulous, loyal member of any family, in fact I would happily feed our two girls to ours. :grin:

Thank you, I did notice the little one peeping out from behind the blanket :grinning:

That made me laugh out loud, ours still likes to attack us and bite our arms, he doesn’t realise his puppy teeth are now more like a Great White :laughing:
The wife is always covered in bruises from him, he is starting to calm down a little now though.
Anyone that knocks the door doesn’t stay around for long chatting when they hear him either :rofl:

Great photos Dave.

Billy is looking really well. Great to see him back in the driving seat.

Billy Monger is an inspirational kid.

I’m pretty sure I’d be contemplating calling it a day in this world if that were me…

@Ninjarich1971 your dogs are stunning, especially:

@Ninjarich1971 Lovely ! I’d like more myself but I don’t think ours would be happy about it.

Here’s one of my pups - Sky -she was diagnosed with degenerative myelopathy about 6 months there is no pain involved in the condition just a real bummer – she doesn’t let it get her down and is a great inspiration for positive attitude in the face of challenges!! She was still in the learning stages of using her wheelchair on the second video - I was using treats but then I thought - why not distract her with the drone - my other dog Zulu is also chasing the drone in the shot …

I love my extended pup family :smile:

I am a aircraft maintenance technician/engineer at Oakland Airport here’s a couple of our beautiful sunsets from several months ago.

Nothing like that now - -the whole San Francisco Bay area is currently full of smoke from fires 200 miles away - nothing to photograph now and really tragic times for those in the fire zones …

Love that first sunset photo :clap:t2:

And your dogs are adorable :heart_eyes:

It’s incredible how resilient they are isn’t it? Humans just don’t have this trait… Well, perhaps 1% do (eg. Billy Monger) - and I take my hat off to them, they are far (far) mentally stronger than I :bowing_man:

News of the wildfires has reached us here in the UK too Bonny, tragic and frightening times :slightly_frowning_face:

Somehow…I must have the only hound on the planet that just does not care about drones…no matter how close I get to him with it. Sticks, Balls, Toys…Yea. Drone… not interested !

You are very lucky!! I really wish my dogs didn’t hate my drone so much. I usually have to shut them inside with the music up so they can’t hear it! Even if I watch a video on youtube the younger one gets upset over that too!!

Well done to Sky for getting around on wheels, I thought we had it bad with a limping pup, amazing to see and well done to you for not giving up on her :+1:
