Must have been a pleasant surprise, Ian. Nice dogs, those EBTs, but I prefer a mutt that's a bit more strokeable. There's a lovely one I see now and again when I'm out with stumpy and grumpy, my pesky Westies. Feels like he's made of oak!

Andrew, he was well known in the breed and show scene. He sired pups worldwide and many went on to make champions. He was a big cuddly dog.

 

All mine are all strokeable Rob, they're probably the most loyal and loveable breed i've ever come across(and i've had various breeds all my life, working and show dogs). If you sit down my bullies have to sit so as they're actually touching you.

My mrs has just informed me those canvases where made for a few years and in different sizes...one pic, two pic's and different colours etc. I think it was a foreign chap she spoke to at a show and he was into his bullies, art and photography who made them.

I wasn't impugning their nature, Ian; I've met plenty of them and can attest to their loving nature - beautiful dogs, even with strangers - but they are rather like a carving with fur on, solid as a rock. .

I'd love to meet him. Truth be known, I like dogs better than people anyhow; if they've been brought up right they only have a good side.
