    Ok.. GSD pup. Male. I would say train, train, train. Be prepared to go through the ASBO stage. It lasts about 2 years... and then you will have a lovely dog.

    Sometimes seems a very long 2 years though...:rotfl::rotfl:

    Day after my boyfriends birthday too, he is 26 on the 30th Aug so will be a nice birthday gift for him.

    Caroline I am preparing myself for the wrath lol, already booked in at training classes for when he is old enough :) may try him out when he is old enough at a few shows but not sure as it's not something I have ever been interested in but he gets automatic entry in cos his parents are champions so may give it a shot.


    EXCITED :D

    Oscar is cute BUT a friend of mine had a yorkie when we were younger called Oscar and I hated him :( He barked all the time and it's put me off the name .

    I like Ollie but my friends new dog is called that.


    I like Brody but my boyfriend doesn't.... hmm.

    He likes ' Captain Tractorface' :rotfl:

    We had a dog called Oscar who is sadly no longer with us, we called our next dog Ollie lol.

    Enjoy your new puppy when he arrives, I bet you can't wait!

    Aww Dexter is lovely, what breed is he ?

    It's so exciting, we lost our Kia a couple of weeks ago and it's been so empty without her.

    He's a blue merle Sheltie. Coming to join our 3 year-old tri, Ruby....and 3 cats. We've invested in a puppy play pen so they can all get to know each other safely! He's being eye tested and microchipped this week. His collar and ID tag, food, cage, toys and bedding are all here ready for him. Scrounging newspapers now for the toilet training ;).
