Default Yee ha from Cowtown (aka Calgary!)

Hi everyone,

This is my first visit to the site - I have squandered my Sunday morning reading all the interesting posts!

I am originally from South London, but have been living in Calgary for almost nine years with my Ontario born husband, two boys (six and eight) and crazy Golden Retriever. I am now well versed in rodeo, chuck wagon racing, ice hockey (Go Flames Go!) and copious amounts of coffee drinking.

Still miss home, namely the neighbourhood pub, M&S, green grass and if you can believe it, the rain!

Looking forward to enjoying some good British wit...

Hello and welcome! Still miss my golden retriever, beautiful dogs. We get our fix by fostering them for a rescue here but after moving we plan to finally get a pup of our own and I can't wait!!

They are lovely dogs, but I had forgotten quite how much work they are. Plus, my two boys add a whole other dimension to training a dog that I had not bargained for! LOL.

My mum has mentioned this PerUna range and I have seen several references to it here on BE. Is it amazing stuff?
