Hello Everyone,
I am new to this forum. We have two Golden Retrievers, Teddy who is one year old and Shelby who is 2 ¼ years old. We are family of dog lovers, but particularly me and my 12 year old daughter, who are members of a dog training club and like to have a go at the occasional obedience competition. We are at the lowest level of competing and not had great success yet, but we are having fun trying.
I am looking forward to getting to know you all and hopefully getting some helpful tips on training, obedience etc.
Paul

Hi paul, welcome to the forum. I'm cazypops and I'm owned by a Parsons Russell called Jasper, and two moggies called Flirty and Bandit. Jasper is almost 4 years old and I have no idea how old the moggies are as they adopted me. (think they are between 11-13 years old) Look forward to getting to know about all Teddy and Shelby, and your training escapades.  |

Welcome to the forum paul , hope you enjoy it here. If you need any help with the forum don't hesitate to ask, we don't bite after all we were all new here once Look forward to them , we are quiet on here at times but many members dont make a fabtastic forum, we have a great community here even if small but... You know that who you speak to do really care what you have to say and the great thing is Im no cat person but boy do I enjoy seeing and reading about their antics they get up to LOL Should have said I'm Toni with 3 rescue cats aged between 6.5 & 12(ish) years & definitely am one of the ones whose cat antics are changing scallywag's view of cats (& also, on occasion, enforcing her view that dogs are better!  ) I enjoy hearing about all the pets on the forum, including reptiles which I didn't know much about! Look forward to hearing (& seeeing?) more about your dogs & their training. |
