Most pet cover doesn’t cover ‘real’ working dogs at all.

It’s a slippery slope isn’t it. If flyball and agility are working what about the gundog scurry at the local show and what about ‘real’ showing. I guess there could be categories of use like with horses.

Of course. I get the best policy I can in my budget per dog. The Poms have lifetime 15k cover, my Boston has 1 year limited 7k cover with a 25% co-payment.

Yes. The other stifle then locked for the first time ever in recovery. He’s still sound with no further issues approx 8 years later. He was about 7 when we went for surgery.

Pomeranians…! Boston terrors Wirey lurchers Ex racer greyhounds English mastiffs (for other people not me) Fox terriers Diddy working cockers Show cockers- roans Labradors are special toy terriers Min pins Almost everything really if it’s got basic manners.

The patterdales we see are bonkers! Always seem to be a mistake. They wanted a small dog for the family at a reasonable price point not realising quite what they were getting. 6 months in they inevitably realise that the working parents being kept kennelled was for everyone’s safety not cruelty...

These kinds of ratios?

K2!

Great job Jiffy! What a great journey you’ve had. We’ve been on a day trip to do the first 2 phases of a 2 day event. Won them both with big improvements. He’s unshod still and the arenas are not super flat but his balance is making massive strides. Off shopping tomorrow 👀

I don’t much like the look of Braccos, but they do seem nice fellows.

Hmm, there’s not many I don’t like. Shar Peis don’t do it for me. Too spikey in more ways than 1. Not too much of a fan of the other aloof breeds like livestock guardians. Next up I’ll probably get another toy. I’d like another ‘proper’ dog be that a spaniel, lab or Shepard, but once my horse...

That sounds quite positive that distance shouldn’t be too impossible. Plenty to think about and ask!

I may have found a yearling (this year, June foal) with breeding that’s rare in the UK but very like my horse who has an outstanding temperament and movement. If I was to get the lad I’d be looking at youngstock livery certainly for the initial 6months and quite possibly through to either 3 or...

Depends how much stuff I’m storing on them..!

2 in the showground trade stands area itself this year too I believe :) It’s signposted from around behind the copper horse arena food area usually.
