alimac 882 Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 Just a word of warning a fowler had his lab attacked during a retrieve by a seal at Newburgh north of Aberdeen, the dog was put down due to its massive injurys.. Very rare but worth a second thought next time your out and see them bobbing about. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
