Well, like Hollysdad and Naya, I have to say that this doesn't sound at all like the Pongo that we have met. That being the case, and assuming...
Really sorry to hear this Naya. Wishing you and Harley all the best (and fingers crossed for the results on Monday).
We'll see how things go - trials are some way off :)
No, it was in Kempsey, Wocestershire. If you are interested let me know and I'll send the details via a PM.
Hi and welcome to the forum. It's really important that you don't let this incident put you off allowing your puppy to mix with other dogs. In...
He did :) Although, a quick tip - don't take a toy that is too big otherwise they may see the toy before they find it using their nose ;) The...
