He definitely looks a happy boy now :). The crate does look a better fit for him as well.
Ripple was weighed yesterday 29.3 kg, after much wriggling we are pretty certain his height is 60 cm.
Finally got some pictures of Ripple in his crate, looks like loads of space but when he stretches out properly he goes right across it. [ATTACH]...
Interestingly none of the pictures there showed the crate shut with the dog inside. If you look through the pictures on this site where I bought...
Sizes are H 69cm D 86cm W 86cm. I haven't got a picture of him in it but I'll try and take one when we go out later.
I've just bought a crash tested crate for my lab (£££ :eek: ) and he's certainly got enough room to lie down comfortably. Obviously it depends on...
No leg lifting from Ripple yet either - and he's 18 months.
:clap::cwl: Video definitely!
I've just collected Ripple this evening from a week with the dog walker. She's already told me she had terrible trouble with his poo eating, I've...

Took Ripple on his first proper pack walk today organised by one of the gun dog trainers I've used. Apart from the fact we got lost on the way...
I've always had cats and dogs, and the cats have always been in charge until Ripple :rolleyes:. He's just too boisterous for the cats I've got...
You were brave to stay so cool after your experience with collies, well done both of you :).

I had this with one of my previous labs - I went to a reasonably quiet trading estate armed with loads of treats. We started off standing in a...
I'm still struggling with Ripple's poo eating (other dogs), just when I think I've got it under control it all starts up again. Thursday I let...
Well, I did have a spare slip lead laying about :D.
You have to use positive reinforcement when husband training? That's where I've been going wrong :D:D:D.
I talk to Ripple all the time on walks, I like to discuss all sorts of things. I was told by a gundog trainer that I chat to Ripple too much -so...
