Crouch valley Posted January 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 He is ment to be fully trained maybe he could drive him self down or catch the train Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bingo Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Good luck, expect the pup to be a bit car sick and scared (mine was at first) - its always good to see someone committed to getting the right dog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turbo33 Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 (edited) Just think to yourself its a small amount of time compared with a lifetime of friendship. Mine was an 11 hour round trip.....worth every mile. Well done for showing so much commitment from the start. Good luck and many happy years.

Crouch valley Posted January 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 Thanks to every one who sent in there reply's . Well I set off at two am I met my mate who was coming with me we decided to go in his car as it would be a lot cheaper than tacking the disco. The weather was not looking good as it was starting to rain by 3 am by the time we got there it was tipping it down not nice. We found the farm where the dog was no prob the chap took us out to see how the dog worked after that we sorted the paper work out and was back on our way home by now the weather was terrible high winds and tipping it down with rain to top it all. I eventually got home at 5.30 PM totally knackered but hopefully worth it so now all I have to do is bond with the dog and get him working for me.
