Would love to do this !

No offence taken at all. It's interesting to learn new and different breeds (new too me anyway) I can totally see what you mean by it tho, I've looked through the clumber spaniel pictures and her head and eyes do look very alike.

Hello I have got the slip lead, and a canvas dummy. Were would be the best place to get the whistle? That is the thing, I am not actually sure.

I have been trawling through you tube, I don't know if this is doing me good or bad favors? Also i have been using the word sit for Tizzy, but have h...
