    Hello to all
    Just wanted to say hello and thank you for the amazing advice that's available here -
    I've been lurking since getting my pup and she's now 5 months old.
    There would have been tears and tantrums aplenty but whenever things seem too difficult I read up on it here and find that whatever she's doing is really quite normal for a Labrador pup! (She's been such a crocapup!)
    My first Labrador of my own and such a good buddy already :)

    Hi -I'm Somerset born and bred, though I live in East Sussex now. Is Blackbird your dog's name?

    Hi from me and Cassie, 17 months, in Herefordshire.

    Like you she is my first Lab (but not my first dog), like yours she was a terrible crocopup !

    But also like yours my best mate, not perfect yet :), but still, my best mate.

    Hi and welcome from neighbouring Devon.

    I'm a little way ahead of you with a 9mth old and 8yr old. Pup is testing the waters at the moment, turned into 'Kevin' the teenager! LOL

    Ah thanks for the replies!
    My little dog is called Tansy and she's a working bred Lab, smart and loves to learn and she gets hilarious zoomies in open spaces.

    Oh, I know a human Tansy. I think it's a very pretty name - named after the flower, I assume?

    Hi and welcome! Puppy pictures, pleeeeease?

    And I THINK I'm in Somerset as well? It's all kind of confusing at the moment. :D

    More welcomes, thank you :)
    Yes it's Tansy after the plant. Now I'm going to search for advice on attention barking....

    Hello to you and Tansy from me & Coco on the Isle of Man. I agree with you, this forum is invaluable for support and advice.

    Tansy looks lovely, may I ask what a crocapup means?
