Jabba, I had a Brit years ago that I got quite by accident. She was a grouse hunting fool. Her owners were an italian couple and he had her everywhere upland hunting but they got a divorce and the lady won the dog in a custody battle just to get even with her ex. She was going to have the dog put to sleep but I talked her into giving it to me(had to vow I would not give it to her husband) .... but I called the guy and told him I had his dog and he could come get it soon as I got her home. the hubby was moving and asked me to give her a good home. I did. "Misty" only had two problems that I never could break. First, she had been kept in the bathroom during the day while her owners were at work and really acquiured an appetite for eating soap which would make her extremely thirsty. She thought the toilet bowl was her water bowl and after the soap she would be foaming and blowing bubbles. Bathroom door kept closed solved that problem . Coming from an italian family , Misty loved pasta. she would lay on the floor and pay no attention as long as we did not have pasta but if dinner was spagetti or lasagna she would wine, moan and drool like nothing I had ever seen. Misty was 12 when she left us and went to dog heaven.
