this is a siituation where the dogs would probably be on site but would not be used as it is too dangerous:

this dog is lame and has what i would call low drive, i certainly would not pass this dog out for active service:

yes i am now self employed, although i do sometimes do some training work, but not much, last dog i took on was a Weimaraner with aggression issues and was eating the walls, basically wasn't experienced at all, locked up in the house all day and left to its own devices, what did they expect seriously, and they would come in hours after the dog had done something shout at it and hit it hard (which would totally confuse and scare the dog as it didn't remember what it had done and so would think 'every time they come home there gonna hit me) was a shame as he was a lovely big dog...

he's fine now though :D


thanks for all the nice comments people, just thought you would like to see what i did as we're all dog people.
