Olivier
24th October 2003, 05:12 PM
Hi, I noticed several people have already registered so I am posting my introduction :)
My name is Olivier (or Olly or Ollie, it doesn't matter!), I am single, 32 years old and currently live in the South of France. My interests are photography, travel, bikes and dogs of course.
I own a cute French bulldog named Athlon (named after the AMD processor by my brother who adopted him). He is my first French bulldog. I had a boxer named Bismarck who unfortunately died last year at the age of 13 1/2 years old. Compared to boxers, I would say Athlon is more "serious" (but he has his very crazy time when he has to run full speed for 10 minutes non stop!) and snores very loudly, something people can't understand until they own a Frenchie :p
Athlon had a spine trouble earlier this year and fortunately a surgery helped him to walk, his balance is still not perfect but he comes from far as he was almost totally paralyzed from the neck. You can see some photos after his surgery at http://boxerworld.com/athlon
I have a site about boxers at http://boxerworld.com
I will install a similar photos gallery script here too but in the meantime it is possible to upload photos directly into the forums.
I do not know well about French bulldogs (I am just a pet owner, I do not show/ breed my dog) so your contributions are welcome. I am more into web technical things (I used to work as an online chief product for Libertysurf/Tiscali, an European ISP, but I studied laws which have nothing to do with that work!) so do not hesitate to report any troubles so I can fix them :)
Looking forward meeting you all.
Olly
