Hi all, really informative thread, to paraphrase salient points to me (which to be honest are very similar to Beam as have a 6 yr old Lab) as long as I have the required insurance, keep our dog leashed in public places (assume that walks in the countryside are ok unleased if away from roads and horses/cows/sheep, although our dog is custard in colour and nature ) then there are no tests (which our dog would be scared witless by - 35kg of sensitivity) to complete? if I am wrong or have left any important details out please let me know, otherwise thanks again for the information all.
