In Memoriam/Rainbow Bridge / Morgan my soulmate

Almost 16 years old, he went peacefully over the rainbow, resting his handsome head on my hand as he slipped away, breaking my heart as he left us. Ever the joker he even managed to make us smile that day as he peed copiously on the vet's floor while his Dad was carrying him!
Rest easy my son, you leave a huge hole behind you xxx

I’m so sorry for your loss, I lost Olive in May due to kidney disease. It’s so incredibly hard. My thoughts are with you. xxx

Just a thought you could try the Pet Remedy calming plug-in for when you go out and at other times you may feel it will help,  :luv:

https://petremedy.co.uk/product/pet-calming-plug-in-diffuser/

If you do decide it might help, have a look at prices on other sites - you may get a better deal

There are other similar ones like Adaptil which could be just as good.

Thank you all for your kind words, they help a lot.
Our other dog Hugo is coping well without his uncle, in fact he seems quite relaxed as he was often overwhelmed by Morgan's more exuberant personality. Our regular vet called Morgan "a true force of nature"  :005:  We're not sure yet how Hugo will feel when we have to go out as he's had cat and dog company all his life until now so never completely alone (we lost our 2 cats last year)
All will be well in the end I'm sure but I miss my big, bossy boy so much right now.

Having inherited a WCS @ just over 4 months old at Christmas and being not only new to Spaniel but also dog ownership (more in my "Introductions" post) the last couple of months have been a real journey! We're underway with the basics and gun dog training and she's a star but I'm a little slower on the uptake! There is a real weird one that I thought I might share. My wife being W African buys Cow's foot for cooking and our doggo loves the bone, when she gets the bone she'll curl her lip and growl at the kids if they come near her but if I'm laying back on the sofa she'll jump on me with the bone and try to push it in my hand and even try to push it in my mouth, like she wants me to chew it with her. Seems strange behaviour to me but I was wondering if it has any meaning? Or it's only normal?
She loves you!
I am no expert, but am learning that 'normal' and 'Cocker' do not belong in the same sentence

Not many sayings - but Harry has quite a few - does a great high pitch wooing sound down his empty kong, it can be heard from one end of the house to the other :luv:

Cool!
Salty howls when I am late for his walk
He is also a great doorbell repeater when I am out in the garden and cant hear it

Sounds like she needs time for things to settle down a bit, with everything going on.

Hope your leg heals quickly

Ordered the yumove to give it a try before Molly's next monthly check.  Last week she also had her wormer so that might have set us back along with teething.
She is in my bad books today. Think it was accidental but she has put a deep 5 inch scratch down my leg. Makes a change from the biting just hurt more
Ouch!
