I know keeping is more of a life choice than career choice and you only get out of it what you put into it as in any job but I think a lot of people on here took it as he'd jack and should be grateful that he can't afford to put food on the table and while working his arse off his employer treats him like shit. -
I agree with you there to a point, I don't use my lab for picking up any more. If I thought she was good enough to sort out I would, but unfortunately she's better at keeping my son entertained. Hard mouth isn't about respect for the handler. Hard mouth is caused by two things that I know of. 1. Hereditary 2. Induced by the handler's own anxiety to make a dog retrieve the way they want it to. Hence why I said I agreed to some point, the point being get rid of the dog. The rest is bollocks but couldn't be arsed

I had one from Lincoln council, bought a ticket from a machine and payed by card. When a shut the door it must of blown it off the dash as when I came back had a ticket on my windscreen and the ticket was in the footwell. Rang the council next day explained I had the ticket and could prove purchase as I payed by card, they told me to email a picture as evidence which I did, I also emailed after to ask if it was ok. I had no reply so thought it was, about 9 mths later I got a letter from a debt recovery agency trying to find me ( car was still registered to an ex's) and that I had to pay £450.

Good luck in finding a job border hunter, the problem today is people think because they were thick enough to do it you should knuckle down and get through it. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt mate and take your word for it. No one should have to be subsidised on their wages to buy food and there's no reason people should be out right arse holes to the people they employ. You won't get many chances in the trade you've chosen so I hope you grab the next one with both hands and prove some on here wrong, they're probably pissed off that you've got more balls than they did at your age. -
Don't want to put it on here as some people might disagree with how to do it, but if you're really interested pm me.

Not as hard as you think

you would have too ask some one with more experience socks like i said it was not my dog just the experience my friend had feeding raw with a gun dog that was fine before hand I've got a lab who was soft mouthed, she now bites down on birds. I've used her a lot for picking up and I put this down not to here diet, she's eaten dry and raw but that I've sent her for to many runners and she she likes to make sure they are dead. Diet has nothing to do with it as far as I'm concerned. I could easily sort her but she's more of a pet now and I prefer to work cockers.

All depends what you want the dog for. If you want to trial or do working tests you need papers, if you just want a dog to beat or a peg dog no they don't matter. I'd say most people want papers than don't, it's all to the individual. I get papers can be falsified but if you buy from a respectable and well known person the chances are less likely but I'm sure it still goes on. For me I want papers as I can see what the history is like and how trainable the dog should be although it's not 100% by any means.

All centre parcs chalets ring mains are wired in 1.5mm cable, apparently they can does this because they aren't classed as permanent buildings.

I'd use feral pigeon to start with the feathers don't come out as easy, a woodpidgeon might put him off

Doesn't matter what colour you put a lab to, you're not guaranteed to get any colour. Two yellows could throw a litter of all blacks or two blacks could throw a mixed litter.
