      Hi Ray,

      Good on yer!

      You could always tell 'em the dogs are war-trained and they're welcome to try and take the tags off themselves! That'd surely test their PC convictions. lol

        I agree Graham, the world has gone PC mad, gets my goat up, but not as much as Health and safety laws, its only a matter of time before you will need two men to carry a packet of peanuts.

            I for one think its a ripping good idea! I say let them wear their tags and if people dont like it just point out that; "it is a GERMAN shepard, what do you expect the Victoria cross?"

            My farther had a black lab when he was young. I wont say what it was called, but you would never get away with it these days....

              When I was a nipper growing up in West Africa my parents looked after a black labrador belonging to a diplomat at the British High Commission whilst he returned to the UK on leave. The dog belonged to a senior diplomat to a black African country and I bet you can all guess his name.

              No wonder we lost an Empire.

              Luckily for my parents he came to a whistle lol.

              Cheers

                  Indeed,but these things are of their time. I understand that the mutt will be called something else in the Peter Jackson remake. Right or wrong? I don't know but he's hardly a central character in the story. How will Jackson get around the fact that the ,by then late,dog's name was also the broadcast code word for the destruction of the Mohne dam?

                  Cheers

                    Quite right too Ray, I was being tucked in for my daily bo-bo's when I typed it!lol

                    Thanks for correcting an unforgivable error, and Kelly's Heroes is one of my favourite films to boot!

                    Cheers,
