The puppies are mine, the black one on the left is now an adult and has a pup nine months old, who was placed at Crufts for the puppy class. The gray, now an adult, has been performing with me to music from the Intermezzo from Cavalera Rusticana in a Japanese competition. Last year we were nominated for a Royal TV Award. Another one pee’d in the doorway of the BBC studios at Salford Quays.
One of my irritations in zoo work are EU regultions which we hope will die
It was early in the morning and we had stayed at the hotel on the site, so when I took him for toilet we went straight to the BBC door. He weighs 70 kilos and carries a lot of liquid.
When I was studying A Level biology we were taught “ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny” – for non biologists that means “development of an individual within a species” follows the “evolutionary development of the species”. Although the idea is said now to be “wrong”, it is still useful with some elements of truth in it.
Since the BBC banned the showing of Crufts, then perhaps, next year, all the competitors at this event should take their canine companions to the BBC and let them have a giant piss-in in the reception area.

One of my many job involves zoo work. Here is a picture of two polar bears and two puppies I bred. Similarities are striking at this age
GWF,
And today’s date is ?

GWF,
I really thought it was an April Fool’s ! Did you train the one to piss on the BBC or did it do it of its own accord ?

GWF,
LOL ! If only every dog owner would do the same thing !
