What the hell is that hamster doing on that PC? Is he a substitute for a piece of hardware?

it's a trial of a new biometric system - the hamster will only allow the person that feeds it access to the computer, so far it is proving more successful than fingerprint or voice recognition.

So what breed is your pup?

And I think this kitty might be able to tackle your hamster

Hehe, like I said before, good luck - and that's speaking as the owner of a 7 month old black Lab

Very rewarding to train, they're damn intelligent - will do anything for food though, they're bloody hard work though with bundles of energy...and watch your damn carpets - nothing to do with house training, ours knows where the garden is - but she can't be left alone for longer than 5-10 minutes without wrecking something. Lovely dogs though, but they grow quickly

CaKe is absolutely right. Labs are notoriously destructive. Mine is 10 months old, so far she has ripped up the carpet and eaten the underlay, ripped an eight foot strip of corner finish wood (twice) off the wall and eaten it, eaten the side of a garden bench so its now unsafe, chewed the bannister, and other stuff. I have used garden wire fence to fence off certain areas of the house where theres eletrical cables, or just stuff I dont want chewing. I also have two dog gates to stop her getting upstairs, and into the front room whilst we are not at home.

Wouldnt change her for the world tho!!!!

Ahhh, well if we're doing show-off piccies - this is the girl that gets too many freebie treats in Pets-at-Home cos the staff think she's cute & pretty

Heres mine on manouvres in the garden.

Labs and retrievers have split personalities, how else can you explain how they can be so intelligent and so dippy at the same time?

Miss my retriever

Don't feel too bad, he's not dead (as far as I know) we gave him away.

He'd get things in his mouth like fishing line etc, and snap if you tried to take it out, so tended to draw blood.
Also, about the time we had him, my voice started to break so he thought I was telling him off all the time and would growl at me.
We lived next to a childminder and the last thing we wanted was (even tho we were sure it would never happen) for him to jump over and accidently nip one of the kids.
So we found a couple who couldn't have kids, but did have a pack of retrievers, so the last we heard, he was all settled in and thoroughly enjoying himself

(PS the nasty breeder wanted him put down because she didn't want her reputation damaged)
