Pins v Puppies

[Mfresh]

I'm off to pick up a puppy today from Shepperton Mallett, and just wondered if anyone has any pin related warnings or advice?

Is she likely to swallow pinballs, cock its leg against nice chrome pinball legs, chew spare plastics, get under the machines and eat all the spare parts, be traumatised by the noise, etc etc etc?

Any tips to avoid damage to pins or puppy welcome...

Have you called Kenny Loggins? Cause you're in the danger zone

Should be good, maybe the power supply lead would make a nice puppy snack, but they only tend to make that mistake once. What breed are you getting ?

 

[Mfresh]

Golden Retriever. The Ford Mondeo of dogs as my neighbour put it.

Oh, when I seen the thread title I was a little excited. Wrong type of puppies.

 

[Calimori]

I am not sure Ford Mondeo's are as dopy as a Golden.
Easy to train, ours never chewed wires, more likely to carry stuff as a retriever.

Will possibly be frightened by the noise at first but they soon adapt.

Naughty Paul has been reading too much Pinside lately!

Mr Pavlov, don't forget to post a picture of your new puppy, ideally sat on your AC/DC

No dogs in the arcade!

I guess you don't have a door to shield them off, so it might be tricky.

Some dogs are so stupidly tiny that you could actually put them under the glass, for a real Pinball vs. Puppy contest. Just saying.

my German Shepherd likes to shade under machines but the noise doesn't seem to bother dogs too much. cats like toi chase the ball under the glass though. I had a rescue dog once we named Rudy as he was such a dummy. Spike is the dog in Junkyard which is as far as it goes for dogs in pinball (unless YOU know better lol). How come cats got bad and mice got to mouse around?

There was a dog kennel on Bad Cats (the kickout scoop on the right). Dog's name was Ralph(ie).
