I no how difficult a decision regarding if a dog should live on with pain as my friend has just put her dog bart down. He was a heinz57 and gave her and me many happy years. Its the best decision as I no she will have a great last week and join one of my bestest friends ever Bart (RIP) in heaven. Sweet dreams my little poppet. Ady, bev, (Milly and Katie)

I can't even comprehend how hard it must be to make this decision with a dog, Iris deserved so much more and I know everyone hoped for better knew. However, I know that she is in the best possible place for this to have been discovered. Have an amazing week Iris, full of hugs, sausages and a comfy bed before running free soon. Lots of love to all at daybreaks, as usual you make me so proud to know you with the amazing work you do. xxxx

Auntie Kerry is on her way over and we are taking Iris to the park behind Blakesley Hall so she can have a run off the lead with Foxy. Kerry has cooked some sausages for her to tempt her back!
