Lol jake! It must be annoying when the guy says your dog is nasty though.. I know id have something to say about it!!!!

Oooh, and just seen your question about Riley Zoe, sorry, i wasn't being rude, honest!lol Riley doesn't bark anymore. He's not made a single sound at night for at least a week now! He's a little angel! Im probably going to have him in my bed room at night soon as he loves sleeping in my bed! lol

Jess im so glad the barking is under control what a good boy!

Hiya Jessica

Ooh I'm so happy Riley's stopped barking.

I hope you have a great day tomorrow.

Yeah I've seen the labs shown here in Denmark are overweight aswell. Luna wouldnt stand a chance..

She's still a bit chubby, but I'm getting it of her, and she still have a waist

wow thats great news jess, weldone!!!!

I think Riley was just being a typical naughty, noisy little boy! He seems ok now though

Thats great you must be relieved i would of hated if you had to get rid of him, hes stunning!!

I'm almost obsessive about Murph's weight! He's a big lab but I can easilt feel his ribs and he has a better waistline than me! If anything, he could do with a bit more excercise to keep him in shape.

TTFN

I agree with whats been said.

Showtypes cant do a days work and gets more and more chubby.

I dont think its the just the owners faults, but also the judges in the showrings who seem to reward these labs (blame the kennel club who educates them).

To me it seems like "someones" forgetting what the labs were bred for and treats them like pets who should be fed plenty and look pretty
Sad what damage can be done to the breed when this happens....

Does anyone know if there are many working line Labrador breeders in the UK?

Graeme

I dont know about the UK, but isnt it possible to get that info from the lab club there?
