Wow - that's fantastic! Well done both of you!

Can you record it and post it on YouTube? I don't have SKY but would love to see it.

Will you  be with him watching his TV début? Have a great time.

I don't have an assistance dog but do have a rather cheeky Cocker spaniel who would melt your heart with one look and is utterly mischievious but a little sweetie. I asked my partner if he thought it would be worth having my dog retrained to as an assistance dog, he hastily replied no!!! Safe side and all that!!

Have a great weekend everyone!

thanks guys Smiley saw it myself again the other day too, for anyone who didn't see it this is what happened.

Two of our dogs raced each other to a washing line to retrieve towels that were pegged onto the line.  They then had to place them in a basket 3 metres away.  The record was 5 towels in one minute.

On the day Henry retrieved 9 towels in a minute and our other dog 'Vesta' retrieved 8 towels.  The guiness adudicator however disallowed two of Henrys towels saying 'they weren't quite in the basket' so the record went to Vesta with 8.

It was a very long day and I soo proud of Henry's performance, he'll always be a winner in my eyes Smiley
