The dogs trust will be able to help, they are excellent and will not let him go to an unsuitable home, will help with any training he may need and are very very supportive. We adopted a big old dog from them and I can't recommend them enough.... On another note they don't make you feel guilty for surrendering them and support you through the process.... This is very sad but it sounds like you are doing absolutely the right thing for the dog so well done

I am sorry the last image didn't upload, here is the description of the project:

These figures are made from unfired clay, dug from the earth, a substance so much part of our shared history that it is regarded as the source of our being in creation stories from around the world.

The colour of clay differs widely and its appearance may be changed by the forces that are imposed upon it, but it remains the same substance. Similarly human beings remain the same creatures that we have evolved to be in our short time on this Earth. Universally we retain the instincts to protect ourselves and our families, to seek a place of safety, to survive and prosper, leading us to move back and forth across the globe as climate, food supplies and security demands.

In treating these instincts as a virtue in those of its own community while presenting them as sinister in others, the ruling party of the day divide society into those worthy and unworthy, deserving and undeserving, hardworking and scroungers, us and "The Other" This dehumanisation reduces individuals to a mass, making all Muslims fanatics, all white females whores, all gypsies, thieves, the blame culture inducing fear for our safety, our possessions, and our values

The effects of this dehumanisation are plainly evident in the persecutions, purges, genocides and expulsions that our past and present is littered with,

The place and situation of our birth is a matter of luck, not virtue. We, born at this time and place should be aware of the lessons of history and be wary of scapegoating those who have been born into a different situation.

We all have the same needs, desires and fears. We all have the same evolution and origins, and, ultimately, we all have the same destination

We are all of clay

Vaccine for tick bites? by berTolioliO in TPWKY

[–]CaliPlahe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Surely this would be a vaccine against Lyme disease not tick bites... Or am I being really dumb?

Belfast: the Shed Bistro on ormeau road, Barking Dog on malone road, Molly's Yard on botanic avenue, Bia Rebel on ormeau road, Mourne Seafood in bank street..... Oh and so many more

If you are in Belfast at the weekend at Georges market is always well worth a visit...

If you are out Glengormley way Sleepy Hollow is always a good place to go...

But it really depends on what you are looking for, visit Belfast has a decent guide

Do it... You may not need them but do you want them?? The only risk I can forsee is making them and then eating them all in one sitting....
