Goodbye Bernard, My Boy

by Jon on December 13, 2010

Bernard’s gone. I’ve just got back from the vet’s after taking the decision to put him to sleep. He was really struggling over the weekend, completely uninterested in things, wouldn’t come if I called him and lagged so far behind on the walk it was sad to see him struggling along. After talking with Margret, [...]

News pics of Tilda

by Jon on July 13, 2010

Ann-Britt sent some lovely pics of Tilda, who is now 1.5 years old. What a sweet girl! I love the expression on her face. She really reminds me of her Bernard, her father, but with the colouring of Aggie. Thank you Ann-Britt for taking such wonderful care of my lovely girl and giving her a [...]

Bernard, The Return

by Jon on April 7, 2009

12 week old pups looking for the right home Bernard’s been a bit poorly of late, as some of you may know. He had to go in for a biopsy yesterday. Although we don’t have all the results yet it looks better than we first thought. His tonsils have been giving him gip. I took [...]
