Cheers daryl.
I went along lastnite & think little madam will really enjoy it, it'l get her brain working.
Haven't gone to puppy classes yet. would like to though, trouble is if we can only get to a couple we've paid for the course and not got our monies worth.

Hi Rich,
We have a english field cocker who is only 3 if your one is from working stock I would def recommend traing her to retreive dummies, it will defo get her brain working.
as this is how her mum and dad would have began there training. If you have any questions i will be at training on Tuesday

Thanks very much for that Heather.
Unfortunatly I'm not going to be able to make it down for the next couple of weeks. The joy of shift work!![[mad]](./images/smilies/mad.gif "Mad")
We are trying to get her to fetch on command, which seems to go fairly well until she gets too excited. Then she just runs after the toy, kicks it then runs back and launches at you all teeth and paws, until you distract her with a different toy, she just wants to chew your arm/hand/foot/leg off.
