    @xodza I know i was told it would be too much to have it done, so that put me off. It's not very nice by all accounts. Im like you I learn to live with it, but best to get it checked out just in case.

    He always realises he is wet and uncomfortable, but only when actually out of the rain.

    Thanks for your concern, DJ, but I do put it on. There's no way i'm copying next door; she sits in the dark with her coat on, she is that miserly! 🥶

    Dogs in general know how to appeal to our emotions, Staffies in particular! He does the Gismo from 'The Gremlins' routine, knowing i will fall for it!

    Thank you

    I really didn't expect it as the last two assessments they reduced my award and I got it overturned on m.r

    The stress of claiming over the years really took its toll on my health.

    I feel like I can focus on my health issues now and being the best I can be.

    You was very positive when applying you wrote your truth and sent so much evidence and kept yourself positive about the whole situation ready for whatever the outcome was and I believe when your not intimidated by them it helps the process

    Their extreme bond with people was deliberately breed into them. It's not a great subject, but interesting none the less.

    Historically they were bred for fighting, we all know that. A working man might supplement his meagre income through dog fights.

    The dog could sustain some nasty injuries, and it was imperative the dog was able to live 'cheek by jowl' with possibly a large family, all in one or two rooms,

    There are even stories of badly injured dogs being put in the pram, cart etc with infants, such is their affinity with people.
