    For quite a few years we had a falcon bell attached to Charlie's collar so that we could hear where he was when off lead. I am so happy to say he has been de-belled as we now know where he is and he knows where we are because he checks in just to make sure we haven't gone away!
    Proud times, proud times! :D You're a star Charlie :star: xx

    Well done all of you.
    Hard to believe he has achieved so much with you.
    You must be very proud of yourselves, Charlie included x

    :rofl: Charlie said goodbye to those a LONG time ago!! xx

    Charlie's Pointer genes, therefore his ranging have been difficult to cope with which is why he wore a bell, but over time he has stayed closer and closer, not velcro dog yet you understand :rolleyes: but at least he doesn't need the bell as we can see him.

    It's a silly thing to be proud of but all these little steps are important to us as they add up to bigger steps - eventually!

    We are feeling very proud of our boy :) xx
