P.S. We are willing to pay what we paid our usual dog-walker - who's off with a shoulder operation. (Not due to Jake's pulling! Scheduled long before she started walking our dogs.)
We paid her £10 for walking the pair of them for an hour.
Jake's a 4-year old cross Spaniel / Retriever dog & can be a bit aggressive towards other dogs - especially black labs. For some reason he absolutely hates them.
Twiggy is a 1-1/2 year old lurcher bitch & is usually OK with other dogs, but does tend to join in when Jake has a 'tantrum'.
They both need to be kept on the lead all the time, as they're not too good on coming back & there are too many rabbits around here.
They could better trained, but we got them both from Mrs Murray's Dogs Home in Aberdeen, so didn't do their initial training as pups.
Jake pulls like a train - even on a choke chain - but is not so bad with a harness. We've also tried a Halti, but he keeps trying to rub it off on the ground.
You might have seen us in the fields between Newtonhill & East Cammachmore - or occasionally in the Newton Arms.
what breed are they and are they well trained and get on with other dogs?? If you are really stuck, i could perhaps help out while walking my own dog??
Glad you got something sorted.

Hi Jane - and all who replied.
