This blog is a big 1 today, i can't believe It's been going 1 year doesn't time fly when your having fun.
When i started this blog 12 months ago i didn't have a clue what i was doing, but It's just grown in popularity now thanks to BlogPaws and it's members, Google and You Tube.
I remember when i started and how excited i was when i got my first comment and follower.
I've met some lovely virtual friends along the way from all over the world i know we will probably never meet and have a run in the dog park or on the beach with you but through reading your blogs i feel as if i know you all, there's something special about pet bloggers you're all so friendly and have helped me out a lot. Even though It's been a great year It's not been without It's low points and sadness either as a few blogging pals have left us for that trip over the Rainbow Bridge.
Just one more observation a lot of my followers are from America and I was surprised how many own Pitbulls/Pitbull crosses and talk so fondly of them, Pitbulls are banned in the uk under the Dangerous dogs act so I've never had the pleasure of meeting any but from what I've seen on the TV they are lovely dogs and make great pets even Battersea Cats and Dogs home says 92% of illegal dogs it is forced to hand to police for destruction would have made good pets.
The reasoning being Pitbulls are fighting dogs, who's is that fault Pitbulls, Staffies or any other breed for that matter don't get a say in the matter there forced into it by humans not through personnel choice I'm sure if they could speak up for themselves and you gave them a choice of a lap to lie in, a nice warm fire to lie in front of or to go fighting how many would choose the later.
Even small dogs can be aggressive if not brought up properly It's our responsibility to make sure there trained properly and mature into good canine citizens, at the end of the day there not born evil monsters It's what humans have turned them into.
So i think It's about time we stopped picking on the easy target who can't defend themselves in court and started hitting the dog fighting rings harder.

Some of the highlights from 2012/2013.
I went to the Valentines day Ball kindly hosted by Mollie and Ranger with Grady who was also chaperoning Ash, i just think he wanted to keep his options open BOL
I also got my hunky man cat brother (Cody) a date as well with the lovely Miss Daisy.
I also got this lovely gift off Grady full of yummy doggy treats.
And Cody also got this cool card off Daisy.
I've also won a couple of great prizes in giveaways.
I won this great QR tag off Carma Poodale Allen.
I also won this Pet Alert sticker off Cats & co.
I went to the Lake District on holiday for a week and we're booked in for 2 weeks this year over Christmas and New Year.
Mum and Dad got Engaged when we were on holiday..
Dad found another Women, don't worry he didn't cheat on Mum no one else would have him according to Mum BOL it was a Samoyed the cheek of it friending a lady dog when I'm not around, i only found out about it through Mum it all happened at the jewellers when mum went to get her ring size altered and the owner had his dog in the shop, i lost count of how much groveling he had to do for that misdemeanour.
Dad also paid for me to get my nails done for my Blogiversary, now Mums complaining something about favouritism because she can't get Dad to pay for her to get her nails done, sorry Mum but that's life you've either got it or you haven't obviously i have it BOL
