Now who would have thought it ..

NINE YEARS OLD TODAY :)

"Mighty oaks from little acorns grow"

Is that right from the days
       when the board was
             like this
                 and like this
                          and like this
And when you read a post
      it changed from blue
            to red or was it
                     from red to blue?
And you had to plough through
       them all to find
              the ones you had not
                  read?
I wonder how many can remember
             those days?

Happy Birthday :-)

.....and how long will it be before someone mentions Sally Broomstick? :-D

I wasnt even a member and nor did i know this existed at that point, i was only 11 years old ha ha!

But HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! :-D :-)

Thanks for advising us of that yorkies4eva.  Not been on here quite that long, but sadly not far off, agggh, where does the time go. Think my username has changed 3 times since the olden days!

Aah, I'm a mere babe, only joined in June 2002.

Happy birthday Champdogs - still the best forum for sound advice and support by a long chalk, despite the occasional petty bickering.

I'll second that, a excellent imformative forum, really enjoy it!!

MMM nine years there's been a few changes since then. Forum renovations which were protested about vigourously every time. The fimiliar names coming and going and changing (mines been the same all along). Joy, laughter, arguments and tears.Much like a great big family. Heres to the next nine or more :-D

Happy Birthday Champdogs :)

Just looked and I have been here for 7 years now :-D :-D

Happy Birthday CD

Didn't know my grand-daughter had such a 'noted' birthday (She's 4 today)

Wow, happy birthday Champdogs !!

Only been on here a year but what a Godsend this site has been to me.  It's not just all the wonderful advice but just knowing there are people out there who don't switch off the moment I talk dog.  It is sooo hard to find people not just with the same interest, but so willing to share their wisdom and experiences.

Long live Champdogs :)

Happy Birthday....
3 years for us here and very valuable too!

Karen :)

Happy Birthday Champdogs! :-)  (And all who sail in her :-D )

What a great, user friendly, helpful, addictive forum you are!

Happy Birthday Champdogs, I have been here 6 years, and come on most days, I like the fact If you have is a problem, you can use the search engine for answers.

Charm

Happy Birthday Champdogs!!

I've only been here for a couple of months but I'm so glad I found this place.  Unfortunately I don't have enough experience to be giving people advise so I feel like I'm the one always asking but everyone has been great!

Hope you're around for many more years to come!

If you're looking for information canine
If your pooch keeps on growling "it's all mine"
If you need reassurance 'bout whats covered by insurance
There's only one place that will give info apace
-That's Champdogs!

If your best friend won't eat his dinner
And is getting much thinner and thinner
With one week to go before the next Championship Show
You know where to go - for feeding info
- look at Champdogs!

At times we all have our moans
About the state of our homes
At the mud, and the hairs and the dander
We can grumble and cuss because all of us
Know what we mean - that's just Champdogs.

Champdogs is all about true dogs
Be they large, small, many or few dogs
There are all sorts of sizes, some who win prizes
But all of them are our Champdogs.

We do not like the greedy breeders
Who think that they'll try and feed us
With rubbish about why they can't let puppies die
- why can't we see they know more than we
We can - because this is Champdogs!

We can sniff out a troll at ten paces
They don't like it - but they don't know their letters
They attempt to be rude - but it's all rather crude
And we've been insulted before by their betters!
This is Champdogs!

Happy Birthday Champdogs!!

Fab Margot - well done :)

Hey that's a great poem Margot.

Happy 9th Birthday Champdogs!!! :-)
