How could such an innocuous posting and such as basic advert on behalf of a friend, instigate such replies. It seems clear to me that the whole idea was to "Phone Amanda .....", that is, for further information. Even in her follow up message, Lily said "Hey it's only 16mths old lol if it's trialling good, it's capable of plenty of improvement. Could be city class, I don't know where it's been trialled or how good the dog is". It seems to me that Lily's reference to "City Class" was only in the context of "who knows, he could be city class, I don't know, I know very little about the dog and how much he will improve". And Gippy as for your tirade, I can only think that you have confused Lily's advice to members about her own dog as being advice about her friend's dog which is offered to trainers.
