Hi Colin, yes I have seen this website. You will have a couple of real fine staffords there, they have some beautiful dogs. The puppies will be to die for. Speak soon hun, I'm off to bed now, night night x

Hi Colin-great to meet you . My hubby went to Canada to visit friends years ago and absolutely loved it over there-he even liked Vancouver which you werent keen on-its sounds like a lovely country to live in. The vet nurse where I take my dogs wants to semi-retire to Canada with her 7 dogs and 8 cats before she is 50-so is saving hard and working even harder. . Love your favorite foods-very in depth-some things I havent heard of but they sound good. Bet you cant wait to get your Staffys next year. Look forward to speaking to you soon. Take care. xxxx
thanks for the friends request, wow a Canadian, my hubby better not find out, he wants to come and live over there, he will be asking me to ask you loads of questions about Victoria - looking forward to meeting your staffies colin, speak soon Debi

Staffordshire dinner
Your local pet food store will be able to supply diced or minced pet-grade mince, make sure that itβs fresh (the smell and appearance of the food as well as the store is a good guide), but also look for mince on special at supermarkets too! Skinless chickennecks can usually be bought from the deli or meat section of any supermarket - you may have to order if you need large quantities - I use around 30 kilos at a time!
