I think poss the springer would not cope with it as well as a lab may, not that any dog should cope but as said before it happens, some folk aint got a brain, that said I have met a few labs that would be worse than springers but on the whole I think springers, they are just all go go go go go,

Yikes.

Musn't laugh but it is funny when you look back on it.

True, i was listening to my ipod the other day and said to my sister this is one of the few things that has not been left with his "mark", remembered one more thing he damaged, A box file containing all the dogs vet, kc, insurance and pedigree papers, found after his death.

How???!!!
How on earth can a dog destroy a patio slab, aren't they made of concrete or similar????

Oh my god!!

J

I was laying the patio a few years back, i turned round to see him spitting chunks away where he had chewed it, when i shouted over to him to stop he pulled it it from the top of the others and smash.

Sorry... shouldn't laugh..............

Then dont. But the vet did, he use to ask what he had done betweem visits

Thats a fair ole list though mate... But I'm nae gonna laugh any more.... << see straight face ..........







oops

I know and there is probably a load of stuff i have forgot about, we still find his mark almost 9 months after he died.

We added up once the cost of buying him, jabs, ops and medication and the stuff damaged ate or destroyed and it totaled way over £10,000,
