Thanks, they are lovely dogs. I already have a dog, otherwise I would certainly take them on myself. Although Lynne is trying to persuade me that Sheeba may get on OK with Jasper and that we should try.

I cannot risk Rex with my grandchildren. He has been very gentle with them. But I don't know how he would respond should one of them try to hit him etc. He was a rescue dog that had been badly beaten as a pup by a gang of yobby children and as such does not like them when out on his walks etc.
