I have just watched the delivery video as it is very pertinent for me at the moment. Loved the sign off - "don't lose your patience"

I let my lab pup (now nearly 5 months) of lead as soon as we went out after jabs but had already been training recall in garden. Then I took him to the deepest darkest woods and did a hansel and Gretel and he came back fine. The big problem for me is as I live on the the fringe of Urban is everywhe...

This had me in stitches - I thought I'd share.....!
