Hi & welcome to the forum
My daughter who is now 13 is autistic and was helped massively by our last pet dog. A female boxer called Sandy. Many a time did I find 20 toliet rolls unrolled onto the landing and my daughter and Sandy sitting there trying to look innorcent. Never did work out which one it was

Hi Nessa n Tilly

..and a big hello from me and Jethro too!

Welcome aboard! I'm new here, too! My pup is red and white as well!

Hello
I have heard many a story about the amazing connection between animals and people who suffer from autism I think its amazing how a mind that cant or has difficulty comunicating can do so through the company of animals.

Hello and welcome, what a great story.

Hi and welcome

hi and welcome to the forum....

Hi and welcome to the forum

Hi & welcome.

Fantastic to hear a story about a staffy & child getting on so well - that's what the breed's all about!

We'd love to see some pics!

Thanks guys for all your nice replies i will put photos of Tilly and kids have loads of pics but am not very good with laptops/pc so i don't know how to do the photo thing even with the help thing

Open an account with photobucket.com (it's really easy & free!), then upload your pics from your computer to photobucket - again it's easy. Once the pics are uploaded onto photobucket, hover your mouse over one of them & you'll see a drop- down menu. Go to the bottom of that menu & copy the IMG code. Then paste to your post here!

Hiya and welcome to the forum

Hope this has worked lol

It worked! Very cute, what was the award for??

hi janey we went to woking leisure centre for a show in nov last yr and came first in puppy class(the red ribbon)and then we got best puppy the blue one

I didn't know woking leisure centre did shows, what are they for and when are they???

well done - lovely photo

hi janey they have another one on the 17th april its an open show but entry dates are closed now but can go andwatch they are held under the kennel club rules & regulations.
the champ shows if you win 1st,2nd or 3rd you qualify for crufts
You can find them on any places like fossedata,penneypine
the leisure centre doesn't run them they just hire the halls out from the dog societies
hope this helps
