I was shocked to see how small and sad and smelly she was. It nearly broke my heart. She was diagnosed with a substantial heart murmur by my vet which was upsetting as she was only about 3 4 years old. Despite this she lived almost 9 years of pretty healthy life. I hope we gave her a happy life, she never did learn to play or trust strangers but she loved her freedom, food and walks and never wanted for anything. Annie was helped on her way to rainbow bridge this morning 1. I am glad she had a long peaceful retirement with us. Sleep well sweet girl xxx Love you xxx GRACIE October 2. We adopted Gracie from MT in 2. Labrador Woody.   She had endless energy, took no notice of anybody, barked continually in the back of the car and was a bin raider and counter surfer stealing and munching her way through a pile of raw burgers and sausages ready to put on the bbq on one memorable occasion and having no after effects whatsoever. For some time she responded to the name Ratbag  However, over time she calmed down and had the sweetest temperament and we never ever heard her growl over anything. She even made it onto the MT calendar last year  Her most important role over the last 4 years has been teaching our 2 MT ex breeding Cockers Lottie was Jelly and Freckle was Oreo how to be normal dogs and she has been such a kind, gentle girl in showing them the ropes. They have learned all the important doggy things to do eating cow pats, rolling in dead animals and fox poo, finding and eat cat poo in the garden, picking blackberries, cleaning the kitchen floor and being conveniently deaf, but also learning how to play, chase a ball, swim, be happy and have fun. They wouldnt be the lovely well adjusted girls they are if it wasnt for Gracie. She had suffered from worsening arthritis over the last few years and, although she had been on tablets for a long time, over the past two weeks had not wanted to eat unless her food was softened the vet wondered if she had got arthritis in her jaw as he could find nothing wrong with her teeth or mouth. She was finding it increasingly difficult to get around as her legs just wouldnt work properly and so after much deliberation we made the heart breaking decision for her to take her final trip to the vet. She had got to the grand age of 1. We are very sad but know we made the right decision. We have been waiting for the Cocker girls to miss her but they seem to have accepted that she isnt here. I suppose this is the last thing that Gracie has done for them shown that they can cope without her and that she did a grand job. We miss you sweet girl. David, Sue, Lottie and Freckle Howell Griffith  HOLLY August 2. Hello. I did contact you in August to tell you of the passing of my dear sweet Holly, adopted from MT 6yrs ago along with her kennel mate Hope. With her health failing I adopted little Harry only 2 weeks before. From the terrified abused little Cavalier, she turned into the sweetest, kindest little girl. Loving nothing more than a cuddle, or squeezing up close to her pal Hope, an older Cavvi adopted at same time. I miss her terribly. She has been my friend for 6yrs. Never nasty, putting up with the various treatments she had to endure. When her legs began to fail, I bought a dog buggy for her. She loved it Sitting there looking so beautiful and regal, enjoying walks along the river with Hope trotting along beside her. Even at the end her lovely nature shone through. Please include her in the Rainbow Bridge. Dreane Williams NORA JONES September 2. Norah Jones adopted 2. It is with great sadness that we had to say Good Bye to our lovelly girl. She was the most loyal grateful and loving girl we have ever had. When we adopted her she was 4yrs and some months we were told. It was the coldest evening when she my first and last foster dog arrived and she was very sad. You guessed she became our adopted girl because we couldnt bare to part with her. Zte Blade Grey Battery.

I am so sad to let you know that my wonderful Westie, Basil, formerly Lichon passed away on 7th July. He was 1. 5 years old. We were so lucky to have him. He came to us seven years ago, aged 8. He was an ex stud dog, in a terrible condition, but went to a wonderful fosterer, who over six months got him healthy and rehabilitated. He had been rehomed previously, and returned, because he was fighting with the resident dog. When I asked for him, I was told that he could go as an only dog, but that he was a naughty boy Nothing could have been further from the truth When we met him, we realised that he wasnt a naughty boy at all, and his fosterer told us that if he hadnt found a home by Xmas it was November she was going to keep him. I shall be forever grateful to her for letting us have him, because I know she loved him, and it was very hard for her, but she refused our offer of withdrawing from the deal, and insisted we could have him. Basil was our third Westie, the two previous ones from puppies, but somehow he has been the best, although we have loved them all, of course. He settled in immediately, and we soon realised we had got ourselves a fantastic dog. He loved everybody, and everyone who met him loved him back.
