Yes. Been keeping them for many many years. First started with a fish I won at a fair !!

My temps gone up too but I just leave the hood open to aid cooling but I'm a fish only set up on the marine side.

Go for it M4occa it's not that bad you just have to be a lot more patient and careful with what you're mixing.

Give them space mate everyone will be fussing them all day especially the kids if you have any
Just make sure you have somewhere for them to retreat to to get out of the way,are you going down the cage route or just the old fashioned dog bed?

Sorry mate should have looked through the post

Labradoodle you will have some fun
my mum had a Labrador it was the most giddy crazy dog ever
Everyone told her it would calm down when it grew out of the puppy stage it was still as mad at 14yr old

Brilliant dog though and most best natured thing with my kids when they were little and my brothers kids also

Here's was our Bella the day we got her, shes a Jack Russell!

Just make sure you get some decent pet insurance, and get your dog familiar with other dogs asap. Only issue I had with our Bella was teething, Jack Russells are known for chewing on anything around 1-6 months old and nothing was safe.

Good luck in your search!

Looks great.

Harden your heart the first night when he cries when you go to bed. Ours did for one night only and then settled right down.

He did indeed, for about 15-20 mins then all went quiet... I didn't hear anything until 6am this morning even with all the doors open.

Not as bad as i thought it might be. Just need it to stop pissing in the house, it's odd because he was using puppy pads at the breeders but hasn't once since begin with us.

But he is going outside as well so can't complain.
