Wxm 1,638 Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 just out of interest what part of the country have people had there dogs from?? and would anyone have a prefered part of the country to get a dog from. the reason i ask is a bloke i used to do a bit with always said he'd never have a dog from anywhere other then scotland. as he always found you'd get a better worker. just wondered if anyone had their favourite.

chartpolski 23,817 Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 It shouldn't matter where the dog is from; if it's what you want, you should be prepared to travel to get it ! I got one of mine local, the other I travelled around 400 mile for. I can't understand people posting on the "for sale" ads saying "lovely pups mate, wish I was nearer", etc. If you realy wanted one, you'd travel ! Cheers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sambam 8 Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 had a colliex from slough and my pup was 15mins walk down the road off a mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
skellyb 8 Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Years ago me and I think most people wouldn't travel too far for a pup/dog but nowadays (especially for me)I think that the internet makes it easier to find out about dogs in other areas plus you can see pics/videos of them and email back and forth re progress of pups in litter etc but at the end of the day it doesn't matter where they are from.
