This really p***** me off , Toff is perfect with my two Grandchildren who live here , Louise is 5 and Jamie is nearly 3 ... both kids know the leave , sit, stay and down commands and use them to good effect with Toff (he's nearly 6 months old)
I tell this to all the rescue centre personnel I talk to , say training for both the dog and the kids with the dog would be high on my agenda with any dog/bitch we rescue, but the answers still no

Why ?

Guess we are gonna have to wait and save up some money and buy from a reputable breeder rather than save a dog/bitch from being in a rescue centre

My OH didnt say no to the drive , as long as its on a sunday , which is a good sign ... and he thinks she's a very pretty girl , also a good sign ... plus he knows ive always loved Blue Merles ... actually im nagging him to go to bed inbetween talking about Misty , lol (he has to be up for work at 1am)
