Feed them good food (stay away from Pedigree / chum etc), keep em well exercised and socialise them early and you'll have a happy dog Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/67509-woof-woof/#findComment-999946 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe do a search on the net around this area.For that sort of money they defintely wont be from registered breeders with papers. That said, I personally think papers / pure breds are a load of wank for a family pet My Shepard has papers etc but not once has that ever been of benefit. I looked far and wide for months (14 actually!) to find the right dog and he just happened to be a pure bred.
