Hi all,
My father has had gun dogs for years and I am looking to buy him a new bitch in the coming months.
I havent bought a dog before (but can assure you the family have had them for years!) and have no idea where to start. We have always had working dogs from the same bloodline - I am currently digging out the pedegree certificates as we speak.
Any help/advice on how I trace these back / what I should look for in a pedegree, what injections should they have etc. would be appreciated.
Thank you in advance!
Matt

You're really going to need more. Look for names that hold titles of somekind.
