Our 7 month old Springer passed his KC bronze award at the weekend. With flying colours. They mocked up the silver award test for him too afterwards and he passed this too.
After many many hours of work by all of our family but especially myself and DH, we have a fantastic, well behaved dog, who wins over everyone he meets as he's such a softie!!
Sorry, had a wine, been browsing this section tonight about recall and jumping etc etc and just feel proud of him really! And lucky.
Ps - always always put him on lead if another dog on lead approaches but he does that circling, stopping, glancing away thing anyway and has started ignoring most dogs anyway after a quick sniff unless they clearly want to play.
However I have to say I never realised just how much work getting to this stage is and would have thought twice had I really appreciated this, much as I love and adore him and wouldn't swap him for the world.
Can you tell I have had a wine?
