  5. Labradors, what colour

    you have to judge the owner a bit on this and ask yourself why would anyone breed labradors without getting them scored. Hip problems stop your working dog from working at a young age, cost a lot to medicate for and really are pretty traumatic to dog and owner. Scoring isn't an absolute guarantee but its a good start, personally spending a few hundred extra to get the right pup is well worth it and can save you a bucket load of cash in the long run.

    I agree with al4x it they haven't bothered to have them hip & eye scored why? or they have bothered & the scores are rubbish!!! you take the chance! I no what I'd do. plus the hip & eyed scoring is to improve the breeding not to bother is irrisponsable & not helping the breed.

    I've got a chocolate at the moment, always had black ones. she is 20mths now & no different to train than the blacks I have had. She will work better than some of the other blacks my friends have. She is from 4th generation working with grandparents that are black & FTCH she is no bigger than any black one I've had & she's a really dark chocolate. Always look at the pedigree & if you know people that have dogs, that work & they breed go for one of them rather than buying blind., because the pedigree is not alaways a true indication of a good dog. Trust me

    Any other feedback from ES100 oweners? I'm considering one of these along with the Benelli M2. Is the Benelli worth nearly twice the money?

I've used gamebore 3" steel for geese & eley vip's 67mm without a problem its marked as benelli on the barrel & as previosly stated its made or essembled in spain but for £725 & 10yr warrenty who cares. :blush:

    :yes: Thats exactly what i think mate,too many willing to shoot for the sake of shooting,i understand if they are causing a nuisance or crop damage,then fine shoot them,however i dont agree with shooting them just for the sake of shooting :yes:
