Yet Another Newbie
« on: November 11, 2006, 11:43:29 PM »
Hi everyone,

We have just joined, but have spents lots of hours as guests, looking at the photos of your beautiful dogs and reading the masses of informative and funny threads.

Unfortunately, we lost our cocker spaniel Ben, suddenly, in July after 11 wonderful years of companionship and cocker kisses, cuddles and mischief.

Nothing will ever replace our special boy, but we are now looking for another sweet bundle of fur, ears and paws (of the cocker variety) to adopt us forever and ensure we have something to do on wet windy days.

Phil & Sue

We can't wait ;)

Hi welcombe to COL,

sorry to hear about your Ben,  I have a 3 yr old black boy called Ben who is the love of my life ( well, after OH of course ;))
Good luck finding your new pup, I know a new pup never replaces the dog you have lost, but it will bring you gret fun and lots of love and cocker kisses!

Welcome to COL.  So sorry to hear about Ben, we lost our beloved Yorkie in September and although we have 2 other dogs (neither of whom are cockers!!!) we still miss her every day.
Penny,   Dexter (cavalier x poodle), Alfie (Whippet cross)  and  Maximus the cocker spaniel!!

RIP my 2 most gorgeous cocker girls - Buffy and Harriet - both waiting for me at the bridge. Joined by my beloved Josie taken too soon and Suki aged 13 :(
