Its on the loch at Aviemore on the road to the ski place. Yes he was on the lead as we spent hours trying to get him out before this. He just runs and jumps into all water repeatedly.
He is now walking on all 4 legs, slowly though which is heartbreaking considering he was nuts before hand. I cried like a baby as we rushed him to vets – we got asked whether we wanted him put to sleep or give him a chance. He has had 3 homes before us so I wasn't gona give up on him like everyone else had, thank god for insurance.
I, like you CG, would love a dog but cannot justify one at the moment. I have never owned a dog before, or been around them when I was growing up but one day I will be the best master a dog could want.
Fingers crossed for stability some time in the future.
Here's Louis, he's sitting at home at the moment due to having his other elbow pinned, so he's now missing nearly all of the shooting season.
He's a typical Spaniel like cabon337's above, the slightest sign of water and he's in there.
We adopted him when he was 9 months old the previous owners had said he was too much trouble and was interrupting their lives too much?
We've had him for nearly 12 months now and he's fine, yes he can be a pain but he's nothing like as bad as we were expecting and as he's grown up he's settling down really well.
Whats the best way to get into shooting? Have been looking at it for a while, have a gundog bred lab ready to go but an owner who never gets time!!! Should i just look for my local club?
