Hello. Well, it's a long, long time since I have been on cockersonline, and so much has happened. Briefly, I have been living abroad for four years, but am now back in UK. On a very sad note, I lost my dearest old boy, William, in August this year, aged thirteen and a half. He had a fabulous life, was loved every day, and fortunately he was only ill for a very short time, but I miss him so very much. On another sad note, I also lost my GSD, Rufus, just two weeks ago, aged only seven, to cancer. He missed William very much, and started going downhill just a week after I lost William. We all thought it was grief, even my vet, but over the weeks he got weaker and weaker, then stopped eating altogether. We had him tested for all sorts of things, including Lymes and Addisons Disease, but everything came back negative. My one remaining cocker, Twiggy, is so lonely without her friends, and I am actively searching for another cocker to help her. I would love to take on a rescue, if possible, and have my details registered with several spaniel rescue sites. Hopefully it won't take too long before we are welcoming another sweetheart into our lives.
