    Hello everybody,
    I registered with this forum ages ago and then with a change of computer managed to lose/forget about you. I am so pleased I have found you again.
    Bess is our first Labrador, she is now coming up to fifteen months and is brimming with energy. I read Total Recall just after Christmas and though I haven't followed the programme I have incorporated some of the ideas when walking Bess. I hadn't realized how boring and predictable our walks were so now we are doing lots of games and training and trying to be that bit more exciting.
    We are lucky enough to live close to the coast; here is a picture of Bess at the beach:

    Looking forward to finding my way around the forum and learning from you all.
    Alice

    Many thanks for the warm welcome.
    Northumberland is a wonderful county but we do have more than our fair share of sheep; Bess knows she should ignore them but doesn't quite manage it.

    Welcome Bess and Alice :)

    I love Northumberland, my family is from their originally and we still visit relatives up your way. It's a stunning county with some particularly beautiful beaches ;D it's just a shame it's so far from us in Hampshire.
