Ok I had waited all my life for one and knew I had the capacity to make a good job of it so I went and got one, and boy am I glad I did.

Had him for a year now and it just gets better and better....

Couldn't think of a name for a while until I came across Dillon as in Gaelic it's suppose to mean Faithful Companion. Seems to be working so far.

He is top notch though. Already got him to the point of herding a football between posts as I am not allowed to work him with sheep even if it's just a treat to see him do what he was born to do but he still works to the same commands. I even have a flatcap too, real Yorkshire style on Ilkley Moors.

I once saw that guy's black lab retriever on Passion For Angling land a few fish but mine enjoys chewing their heads after I clean the one for the pot so I don't think he'll be up to catch and release.

Takes over your life though don't it? I love it. All my mates stopped playing out when we discovered the pub but now I have someone to go running around with or kicking a ball regardless of time or weather. Fab.
