Thanks all it will be a Lab I think, I will be thinking about getting a pup around Febuary and training it through the year ready for the following season, I have trained dogs before but only for the lamp, could anyone recommend a good DVD to get as I can't sit down and read a book I get bored to quick , also any recommendations on where to purchase a pup from, the price would matter as I don't have a lot to spend but I don't want rubbish either so if I had to wait a little longer to save up that is what I would do, thanks for your replies, Mike
