Beechworth pt 2 - the Leuradales rescue Floyd

G'day maties
We seem to attract dogs where ever we go. While we were in Beechworth we found a dog called Floyd. Bryan, who was walking us at the time decided that Floyd should come back to the cottage for a play. We had a ball playing with him and D said I was a good boy and behaved myself for a change.....uh hem......I always behave thank you very much!
Here are some pics of our morning with Floyd. Does anyone know what kind of dog he is?


Things went quite well with Floyd. When his owner came by to collect him she told us Floyd was an escape artist which Lucy & Willow could totally relate to.
Two days later while D & Auntie Jo were shopping in Beechworth, who should D spot again but Floyd. She recognised him straight away. When she called the owner the horrid lady said, "oh he got out again, do you want him?" ....... D sighed and thought why do people have dogs if they don't want them................clearly they're stupid.
Stay tuned for more holiday pics.
Happy hump day
Noah xx

parlance said...

Oh, how sad if the lady really meant what she said. I hope not.

Dexter said...

I know exactly what kind of doggie he is. He is a black doggie with a white bottom. And apparently a party animal.

Slobbers,

I know what kind of dog Floyd is.. he is a dog who is too smart for his owner and a dog who deserves a better owner!! Mom thought she knew his breed but she can't recall what it is now!! LOL.. (sign of old age?)

Inky and Molly said...

Floyd looks like a good addition to the family. is he some kind of Kelpie dog?

Hollie and Janie said...

Poor Floyd!! At least he got to romp and play with you all! It's so sad what happens to doggies b/c of their owners! He must be so good natured b/c he has to fend for himself! You were sweet to welcome him so warmly to your black and tan club!
Love,
Janie

Astrid Keel said...

No wonder Floyd is an escape artist... he saw the good life and couldn't wait to get away from his horrid owner! Looks like you were all having a blast with him!

Karen Raye and Bentley Beargrass said...

Floyd is definitely a Smart Dog - he found some great furiends to play with. Too bad his owners are so irresponsible.

Moco said...

Maybe Floyd escapes to find someone who really wants him.

Deefor said...

I hope she was joking. Floyd looks like he had a lot of fun. Arrow is like that so we live in a prison. Really. Some dogs are just immature-- or too drawn to squirrels.

Floyd looks like he's shepherd and???? maybe a bit of doberman or lab in there? He does look like a party animal!

Lorenza said...

Mom says he is a Heinz 57 - whatever that means. Poor guy. He deserves better owners.

TwoSpecialWires said...

Floyd is clearly a Doggie Who Likes to Have Fun. We loved this story, watching everyone play with such happy tails and postures. And we despised the story at the end. We simply do not understand people sometimes. And their behavior occasionally disappoints us in a big way.

Hoping for a happy ending,
Jake and Fergi xxoo

What a fun pack you all look like together, its a good thing Floyd found you guys, no wonder he runs from those stupid peoples.

Gus, Louie and Callie said...

Poor Floyd living with a family that doesn't love him. Did D take him?
We think he is part Sibe right?

Big Sloppy Kisses
Gus, Louie and Callie

Eric said...

Baby Rocket Dog and Hootie said...

OMD! Poor Floyd must sense that his "owner" isn't worthy. Looks like he had a blast with you guys!
Smooches,
BabyRD & Hootie

Juno said...

Hello guys!! Thank you very much for your barkday wishes! It means a lot to us! :) :)

We're glad your vacation is a pawsome one. Floyd looks a good doggie but mmmm.. he deserves a better human! Was his owner kidding or serious when she said 'do you want him'? Mmmmm...

Momo & Pinot

BarneyandStormsDaleTails said...

We can see you are having a wonderful holiday, smashing photos. Poor Floyd, no wonder he escapes. He is just looking for a bit of happiness. Glad he has found some with you guys.

Woofs & Wags,
Barney & Storm

Hero said...

Maybe he keeps running away, because he's tired of having hoomans that don't care about him? Poor Floyd. He deserves hoomans who are responsible enough to make sure that he stays safe and happy. At least Floyd has found good friends in all of you.

Deborah said...

What a nice blog! I just found you! I like your Blog title! I love your dogs! Have a good weekend!
I'm going to follow!

Persephone and Buster said...

Floyd appears to be a rare specimen of that fabled breed, the Australian Airedale-Seeking Escape Dog. Plainly, he's happier than a pig in manure in the company of Tess, Noah, and the aire-critters.

You're gonna take him home...right?

Sephie, Buster, & Bailey

Thor and Jack said...

Bogart H. Devil said...

Hehehe - Floyd was totally surrounded by Airedale-ness!

Love,
Bogart

Unknown said...

Poor Floyd! Unwanted doggies are sad to think about even when they are in a 'home'. Every dog should be wanted. I don't blame him for escaping but hope he finds a home he wants to stay in soon.
