comby 0 Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 i'll try in here! Hiya ive got 13 month old bitch not sure what she is ive been told she a laguna whippet? but to me she just looks like a big whippet. she is my 1st dog since leaving home where my parents just had labs. Im not too fussed on working her but im game to try it if we both enjoyed it but im really after some help with training ect. i live in chester le street and often go on the fells but can't let her off too much now as she just takes off after most things that move. What im after is someone with simlar dogs to even just go out walking with to show me how to go on with her i know there is dog classes ect but i'd perfer to do it out and about rather than in a town hall or whatever. hope someone can help chester le street or durham would be good? comby hope these pics work just ones from when she was young Quote Link to post Share on other sites
