Thanks in advance. :D

sorry gillian, my reply was curt.. doing something when I noticed your post...

there are a few books on the market aimed at the Labrador, but I havent read them.. skimmed through a few and put them down again, most were generic, written by people who have written many books on different breeds...

Carole Coodes book is excellent... very well written and good reading for show/working/pet owners alike... she and her husband have had dual purpose Labs for over 40years,

she has also made an excellent DVD, ideal for new owners,

Labradors for dummies!! :) Its a really good book, very basic in places but goes into a lot about what the dogs need, problems to look for that are breed specific etc :)

I have a copy if you would like to borrow it? :)

Hi Mobby thanks for the offer but it was actually a Christmas preasent I was looking for. :) You wont convert me to another breed ;)
