Pammy's 5 Year MF Challenge - New Year New Target
Comments
-
Yes I am looking at rescue as well. I am looking for a labradoodle or goldendoodle so I keep my eye on labradoodle trust site as well as wood green which isnt far from me. they are not pedigree dogs.
I just have to be careful where the kids are concerned.
Oh yes - some rehomed dogs are not at all child friendly:eek: - but the re-homing places are usually pretty good on advising on the individual dog, and you don't have tots, which can make it a bit easier.Op'd £200 today and so am below £53k now
