Full of fun, a bit cheeky but very affectionate. He's a big strong lad now, but was bare bones when he arrived from Romania half starved. Its amazing how dogs can still be so loving when they've been treated so badly. I'm really excited about him coming home with me. Peter 5

Our dog was docked but he was born just before it was banned in this country. That's correct Steve. The rescue centre has Dobermans from all over the UK, but also from many other places, current dogs are from Spain, Crete, Romania, Poland and Russia. Most of the dogs, but not all, have docked tails, some of them have the cropped ears a well. Its a real coincidence - or perhaps not, that some of you may know that I spent seven years as a Director of a children's home in Romania. All of our children had significant disability issues, including learning difficulties, Downs Syndrome, and Cerebral Palsy. Sadly, the majority of disabled children in Romania were shunned by society, and ended up in "hospitals" and their lives were pretty horrendous. Things are improving slowly but there is much still to be done. The other coincidence is that my brothers new rescue dog that he adopted last year is from ..................................................Romania! I find that quite profound. Peter 1

He'll do you proud Pete, they are wonderful companions. Thanks Dave Been to visit my boy again today - he's put on some needed weight and I'm sure he's taller too. He slipped his halter which makes him a little more manageable to walk - relying on the safety lease meant I kept hold of him but he almost dragged me two miles down the lane. He's a real strong boy now and I was knackered! He just needs to have some certainty in his life, and a constant companion to bond with. Considering how badly his first year and a bit of his life was he's amazingly affectionate. He's a stunning looking boy too now he's being fed properly. Loads of pictures to come. Pete 2
