Hi everyone, I have recently joined the forum and have been enjoying reading the helpful threads. After having our hearts set on one day owning a Chocolate Labrador of our own, after 20 years my wife and I decided that now the kids are in their teens the time was right. We welcomed Barney into our family back in September this year. He is from working lines and although I do not shoot I will be developing his gun dog skills to give him something to focus on and have fun with. I have just finished reading Pippa's Labrador Handbook and am about to start her Total Recall book. Looking forward to learning and sharing on here.
