same here julia. i'd b interested to try callie on it but it's too expensive.
at the moment with the 20 % discount guide dog owners get, i pay 48 euro for
rc. so unless they suddenly decide not to give the discount any more i'll b
sticking with rc. i saw a 12 bag of byrnes online here for 60 euro. do u know
how much it costs in the UK?
