Hi Leanne
I'm in Kent too - also a 'newbie' - and i know exactly what you have been through as we had to have our adored last cocker pts in January at just 7 years old as he had a liver tumour too. It was all so sudden. We too have taken the plunge and have had our gorgeous 10 week old blue roan nearly two weeks now - it would be nice to keep in touch with puppy stories as they grow!
