So heartbroken for you both, please take comfort in the fact you gave her an amazing few months and she wanted for nothing with you. She knew true happiness with you and Paddy and she went over the rainbow bridge very much loved by many, many people. xxxxx

RIP Sara, you were amazing and you cared so much for the dogs, you'll be missed more than you could ever imagine, you were a great friend and always made the people around you laugh. You took so many beautiful photos of the dogs that captured their character which made people fall in love with them and in return landed them with homes, I promise to do my best and try to carry that on in your honour, we all always joked that as soon as you were back off your crutches you’d be back to head photographer. We don’t know what happens after life, but knowing you, you’re going to be having one heck of an adventure with your boys. See you on the other side xxxxx

So sad to hear this news Alan and Pam I know you will have made this very difficult decision with Spritz’s best interests at heart, no dog could possibly have been more loved and cared for in the short time you had her. Hugs to you both and the Padster.

We look back on the good times with the great walks with her... RIP Gracie (Spritz)... Such a devasting week now running free with Sara who did so much good work at the kennels...

Over the Rainbow Bridge
Its with great sadness we had to say goodbye to our beloved Spritz this morning. Since the x-rays last Friday which showed that she had bone cancer our poor girl has gone downhill rapidly. We did our best with Tramadol but the last act of kindness we could give her was to help her to rainbow bridge. We are heartbroken to lose her but its been terrible to see her in so much pain. Dear Spritzy, when we adopted you we looked forward to giving you a happy loving home for years to come not just four months but we have lots of memories from that time. Thank you for all the fun times we had together and for being such a beautiful happy loving girl, we are all missing you so much. You have been so brave over the last week but this was one battle too many for you. Run now pain free with all those who have gone before, we just hope you get better luck at the bridge. Until we meet again sleep tight darling xx

A very sad day at the kennels...many thanks to everyone who called or popped in to express their sorrow for the loss of Sara. Thinking of her family. Xxx We had two new arrivals this morning, big lad Jordan and pretty girl Queen. Xxx Thanks to Lisa for dropping Westy off at the vets for his neutering op first thing. He was very bright when I collected him this evening and he enjoyed a nice tin of beef stew & vegetables given to us by the vets. :)) Hoping he gets s good nights sleep. Thank you so. I have for everyone's help today. Xxx

Just a quick update to say Lena is a teeny bit better than she was this time last week. When there’s enough motivation she can now get up on her own or she might just need a little help. Once up she’s wobbly until her legs start to work after five or six steps. We stay with her as occasionally she can trip and topple over but mostly she’s doing fine though she’s still on extra pain relief. We’ve got another acupuncture session booked for Wednesday so hoping this will also help as it did last week. Her back is still too sore and we love this gorgeous old girl so much all we want is to make her feel more comfortable. Thanks everyone for your good wishes xx
