You've not met my buddy. Trained to kill he is 

You posted a pic once.

He's gay as a daisy - a nine bob note.

I hope you don't go on deserted parks thinking he'd step up if God forbid anyone attacked you.

He'd shit his fur and run home as fast as his little legs would carry himm

We've got a Jack Russell and i'm always tempted to let the little cunt run free when i take it for a walk and run in the opposite direction. Never a-fucking-gain.

He’d find you no problem

Obviously some have selective breeding and you seem to have been lucky. Loads of people however have just jumped on the popularity bandwagon and therein lies the problem. 

Our cockerpoo is great

Bought him pre checked for known issues

Folk can stick to their pedigrees

100 plus years of inbreeding...what could possibly go wrong

We paid 800 8 years back

Don't think I'll be paying 3k plus for another

First Christmas for 30 years without a dog, been finishing the house off so all too disruptive for new resident.

Always had Manchester Terriers, they can be dominant if you let them and are prey driven. The last one was a re-home and he was a perfect gentleman and loved to play ball right to the end.

Definitely re-homing in January, too many greedy breeders knocking fashionable puppies out... the kennels are bursting at the seams and perfectly healthy dogs are being put down.

Absolutely perfect house trained in a few days

no negatives I think it helped that he was never on his own plus we sent him to mix with other dogs from very young 

Where did you get him? No idea where to start looking. You put it in Google and gumtree or and pets4home and neither fill me with confidence

Pets4home did a grand job for us

But I'd have preferred a recommendation

 

Just seen some of the pics and the houses these dogs are mixed with the lower prices and I’m a bit cautious

Ours came from a house were the mum n dad both lived

It had a menage

2 or 3 horses

Yeah, peasants breeding dogs rings bells for me

My mates got a male spinger and wants to breed from him once or twice and while he's a dog lover, there's a definite financial motivation there

I can see why, not that I’d ever do it but when they’re going for £2k a pop and having a litter of 8 it doesn’t surprise me. Needs to be regulated more.

Weve got a 1 year old red lab. Stunning dog, very quick learner but absolutely fucking bonkers :D

Needs tons and tons of walking, he hails from a family of fully bread gun dogs so obviously its in the genes. 

Hes sound with the kids but doesnt seem as much as a softy pants as our old golden lab.

Brown/red labradors are notoriously madder than their yellow/golden counterparts which is mad. A bit like saying blonde girls are madder than…

Doesn’t matter!
