I have just got a new dog to keep Pluto Happy. We drove all the way to Wales and back to get him (450 miles!!!).
His name is Chester and he is a little bastard. He is partial to biting the missus though so that is a big plus.

Yeah plenty of toys, most of the toys are warehoused but I have about five thousand in one of my spare bedrooms.

Fantastic place set in 100 acres. Is Gwent anywhere near you?
The only joke was that bloody toll to get into Wales £4.80!!!!!!! what a con. -

Yeah thank god.
We paid £500. Not sure if you know about dogs but the mum and dad as well as clear eyes and hips had been elbow scored also (not many breeders do as it is expensive). Hence the 450 mile round trip.
£500 was a good price as normally breeders increase the price to recompense themselves for the cost of the screenings. We paid £550 for Pluto and he has had loads of problems. The ceiling price for a lab is around £600. -
is scoring to stop some sort of bone disease? I've heard of it but never understood it
I've never paid good money for a dog as I just go to the local dog shelter and find some lonesome scruff. My last dogs I got from the local newspaper. This is a picture of Tyson who I had a few years back who was bad at the time. I had 2 of the brothers from the litter with the other being called Bruno (Tyson & Bruno the boxing dudes). I had to give them away due to Tyson picking on Bruno all the time due to boredom. I was out of the house for too long when at work after I split with a girlfriend

I can't believe you English are still falling for the old £4.80 "toll"
