:-DHi, Ive recently joined and thought I would introduce myself. Still trying to work my way round the forum, theres so much stuff on here dont know where to start. I have two children that are now grown up and I work full time nights. I have 6 dogs, 2 cats and 2 rabbits at present and my daughter has 2 rats and my son has 2 dogs and a snake. I also work for a dog rescue and I foster dogs (and cats sometimes) and fundraise and make things to sell for them. In the summer I do dog shows/car boots etc. I am fostering two dogs for them at the minute who will be ready to move on after christmas. I show 2 of my dogs and one has qualified for crufts this year so I shall be taking her, first time and scary:shock: but have to give it a go probably my only chance. I also like knitting which I do mainly at work to help pass the night:-D And I love walking in the countryside with my dogs and gardening when I’m able. I also spend a lot of time on my laptop and seem to order everything from it now instead of shopping which I hate. Thats about me I think;-)
Welcome to the OFF and I am sure you will enjoy it here. Well done on qualifying to show one of your dogs at Crufts and hope you will post up pics:)
Must be good to foster dogs as well - good for you.
Take care.
Rose.
