That dear Mockodile really gets around ;) :D :D :D Whoops, Sorry Christine :(
And here I was envisioning dentures soaking in a glass stolen by puppy, to be chewed by puppy :) :)

£5 a week for training????
omg we charge £1 a dog at our ringcraft classes then 20p for drink and homemade cake!!!! and £1 for every junior handling attending handling class!

I contacted the Alpha Training Classes, thinking only the best for our pup - £73 for 5 classes!!!!!!!
In the end decided on a local club and Roger Mugfords which are a lot more reasonable, and from what I have heard, just as good! I used to pay £2 a dog when I lived further from London, but you would be very lucky to get anything around here for under £5!

Oh don't forget time they take up alot of your time. Its like having four year old twins who are solid muscle and want your attention all of the time. This only last 9 years though so make the most of it.
