I want to make a new Youtube fan video that will include you guys who participate! Comment any questions you guys have about my dog or dogs in general with a picture of your dogs and their names. I will include a picture of your dogs with their names and your question in my Youtube video and answer it. Sorta like a shoutout of your dog with an answer to your question! I thought this would be a cool way to engage with some of you who watch my videos or to those who would like to have their dogs picture on a new video I'm trying to make. If I get enough questions, I will create this video for you guys! Sounds like a good idea or no? I would love to engage with more of you!…

Our local high street's decorated itself in poppies to remember the soldiers who fell in the war. Not quite on the same scale as the tower of london but a decent tribute none the less, I thought.

This is an appeal for help! We are a small primary school in South East London and every year since 2009 we have had husky rides and photographs with the dogs at our very popular Winter Fairs. In the past these have been provided by the wonderful huskies belonging to Mick and Terry Brent and Esquimaux huskies, neither of which we have been able to get hold of. Is anyone else able to help with this? The children and visitors to our fairs adore the huskies and it would be such a shame not to be able to carry on the tradition this year. Apologies if this has been posted on the wrong topic board! Many thanks Nikki

Anybody into fighting? Me Alan and Amanda used to do kickboxing. I was to chicken to do contact sparring or do a fight and the trainer said he'd set one up if I wanted but I was too chicken. In the end I wanted to do contact sparring with a beginner but there wasn't any beginners doing it and then a lot of Crap happened and he closed down as a new club opened. We didn't want to go to the new club as we felt it disloyal, now I want to go back but it's a 45 min journey and Alan doesn't wana go back. Just watched ufc conor mcgregor did great. Don't particularly like him coz of his godliness, but his a great fighter. Was anybody else watching ufc? Here's a few pics from a…

This is my friend's dog Boston...undescended testicle castration should have been straight forward enough but not for poor Boston. Wound ruptured after 3 days and literally his intestines were on the floor. His original stitches were extremely questionable and luckily he is doing awesomely now! http://www.thesundaypost.co.uk/news3.htm

So I saw this getting posted on Reddit today. Was quite shocked but I can totally see how this could happen. I can even comprehend how the owner must feel about it right now. Copy-pasty from here:

After some sad news recently in the F1 world, we have got some really good news! F1 hero Michael Schumacher can lead 'relatively normal life' soon, says former Ferrari boss Schumacher had a bad skiing accident around christmas time and it didnt look good for him in making a recovery. But this is good news. Hope for Jules afterall. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/formula-1/f1-hero-michael-schumacher-can-4395046

Adrian Suttil came off the track at turn 7 and his car was being recovered by a recovery truck when jules Bianchi came off the track and hit the recovery truck He was taken from the circuit unconcious to a hospital and no further news as of yet. Last time I saw an atmosphere like this on f1 it was senna. Sure hope the guy is Ok.

Hiya all, Thought I'd share this link with everyone, in case someone hasn't heard about the latest ebola outbreak... Sounds like nasty business to me really! So anyone traveling just keep aware of what your touching. It can be passed on through bodily fluids so that includes sweat I'm guessing.. Which means anyone sweating could secreat it onto a handle bar they touch or the seat they're sitting in.. http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/ebola-terror-gatwick-passenger-collapses-3977051 *EDIT: i JUST READ THAT THE CASE TURED OUT NEGATIVE.. Phew I was worried there for a bit.. I think I better stop reading the news now hehe.
