But there was a book by Mark Rowlands that inspired me to purchase him and import him and he looks pretty much the same, so just have a look around on google or amazon for the book. I even gave him the same name as the one in the book. Interetingly both author and wolf lived in Cork for some time so people who studied in UCC probably remember him as he used to take the wolf to the lectures he taught with him.
Because we had to come out to our parents. Especially the girls. Was a fun time indeed. "Hi dad, Im moving in with a guy.... and another girl.... isnt that nice" is not really the way to go about it it seems. We are heavily involved in the gay community and have many friends of that persuasion. Our story, situation and history has been very interesting to them. We share a lot of the same concerns, issues, fears and problems that gay couples would and more.
is this him?
I'm a little closer to understanding why now, but at the same time it's a LGBT forum, so not exactly relevant. anyway whatever, just curious.0 -

Yeah that picture is pretty much him. Fabulous aren't they?
The girls are together too, not just with me. Which although they were never into other girls before - or since - essentially makes them Bi. So I think that qualifies us for the B in LGBT
Got a lot of friends who read and post on that forum so I use it a lot myself. A lot of the concerns, stories, problems and more would be things we also face - from legal issues - to parenting issues (we have a daughter) - to issues of acceptance and bigotry and even attacks - to much more. So I try to be in that forum as often as I can and post when I think my storys might be relevant, interesting, helpful or inspiring to anyone there. If anything I post there even helps one person I will have justified my presence.0 -

ah well that explains it so. it wasn't very clear before.
yeah they're gorgeous. though i'm just a fan of dogs in general! you say he's really pacifist, so is he a bit of a lap dog?0 -

I really only say he is a pacifist because he was so depressed for so long after that one time I ever saw him get violent. Really it is just me being tongue in cheek. The efficiency with which he over came three dogs that each matched him pound for pound makes it difficult to see him as anything but a fighting machine. I guess dogs have had their fighting skills bred out of them in ways he has not. I will have to dig that book out again. The author described a similar event to mine in language a hell of a lot better than I can use and how awe struck he was.
He is a bit aloof of character. I guess wolves are more independent. Sometimes he acts all cuddley and excited like a dog would, but most of the time he just does his own thing. He is more cuddley with the gfs than me. I often think he is going to challange me for them some day 0 -

what are you studying again0 -
CCNA - tech certification. You're doing music studies yeah? Is it in order to teach or am I confusing myself massively here?mine never finishes twice a year until i feckin qualify which will be years and years away
it *will* be worth it though

After I get it I'm going to take it handy and study at my ease for a SQL Server cert
If I want to progress, earn more moolah etc. then I need to have it and I'm hoping I don't make a balls of my CCNA study!
It's def worth it in both our cases.....just not right now! :pac:0 -
Well the exams are in respect of actuary, for my work. I do music lessons on the side yeah, and i had singing exam last week. Hoping to re try cello diploma next year, it's just performance though. Because i like it

all doggys ive met love that
I dont usually risk calling him a dog either in case he takes offenceSauvignon82 wrote: »I apologise if I came across as a smart-ass, it wasn't my intention to offend.
Don't think you did at all. Was my bad for not realising what you were actually asking. I honestly thought you were questioning why I would let one of them walk the wolfSauvignon82 wrote: »Being a pack-animal, have you had any problems with him in that way?
Not really but the book that inspired me to import him also meant I knew what to expect in a lot of ways so it helped a lot. Being a pack animal you can not leave them alone really. Ever. The writer of the book was a college lecturer and he had to take his to all his lectures. I am sure it made the students pay attention anyway.
Thankfully there is always someone around though so I can go to work without him.0 -
