I think I can hear the fizz from the steam coming out your ears! :lol: Not now she's had a short back and sides! No longer do I have half the...
We're famous at last! :lol: Although just to confuse you - Isla can work as well! :lol:
Since when did Cockers look like Springers? Since people bred any old Spaniel to any old Spaniel without giving a second thought to breed type! ;)...
That website has made my blood boil! :evil: :evil: :evil: "Extremely rare litter" , what a ******** joke! :roll:
I've never said otherwise..... I just don't trust cross breeders for the reasons stated in my original post.
I was told the same thing by an HPR trainer about Wire Vizsla's too. Apparently it's one of the issues with the Vizsla's in particular. When working...
I think this is what bothers me about cross breeders - they have nothing to strive for. There are plenty of cross breeds born from accidental litters...
Would be interesting to see what he'd be like hunting Grouse, dogs often behave very differently on the moors. :D
Aww that's a shame, but I'm sure Grey would be fine! :D Oscar on the otherhand would fail miserably, he's just soooo nervous! :lol: HPR wise...

Yes he's lovely. I'm a big fan of Brigburn, they really seem to have the breeds best interests at heart, shame they don't breed yellows! And...
No offence, but judging from your efforts that wouldn't be difficult! ;)
Do I? :lol: It's nice you work your dog, the question is does it think it can mind read like it's human appears to? :043:
This seems to be something people forget. Breed Standards were drawn up before breeds split off, the breed standard is the blue print of the breed...
Just another thing, I'd find yourself a good HPR trainer as I tended to find Gundog trainers that aren't used to training HPRs aren't all that...
I think the reality is people just aren't used to seeing breed standard Labs anymore. So many of them in pet homes are the taller, leaner working...
Very interesting thread, I'm going to point out one thing that bugs me almost as much as the "Golden Labrador" term though! "Fox Red" is not the...
