Ellie has been working as a search and recovery dog for over 61/2 years and we have learnt a lot. The top tip we can give anyone is: training is never simple or confined, in other words always be prepared to think outside of the box.
What Box? This is a bucket.

yes we did! I think Bob was behind it, as I popped into the vets on impulse one afternoon and learnt of a two year old golden lab who was living with 9 other dogs and his owner couldnt cope He is a long legged soppy male dog who loves being around people and dogs. I did put a post up but you must have missed it.
