AMBER
2004 - 2011 Amber was our first Spinone taken from us at the age of 6 1/2 yrs old. She died of gastric torsion which is a common problem in the Spinone ( a deep chested breed) - she survived her operation but did not recover properly and we had to let her go !. A real character, she talked to you !, and was so lazy that you had to step over her if she didn't want to move. A really lovely mum to Daisy and loved having her puppies and any of our other girls puppies to mother and care for. We will miss you Amber ! XX

JAZZ
June 1999 - January 2011 - Our very first labrador and Andrews first shooting pal !! ... what can we say she was an old lady of nearly 12 yrs and had been shooting and picking up that many times that 'she new best !!' she was always commented on during shoot days as she would 'go back' until out of sight and if no other dog could find it ... then Jazz could !!

Megan
Oct 2001 - Aug 2008
You were a brave girl Megan,
Through these few days of pain.
It would have been a great relief
To see you well again.
Though the years we spent together were short
The times were always good !
These memories we?ll always treasure
We'd bring you home ? if only we could ?!
Our love to you Megan X

'Wassermusik Zanardi' - Marley for short !!!
We added this page when we lost a dear 'boy' who had been with us nearly thirteen years !. A super fella right to his last days and he will be truly missed by all of us. He was a true gentleman and always accepted any situation .... even our three children and crowd of other dogs.
He was my first dog (after leaving home !) and was a very special 'show-man' winning the 'Dog Challenge Certificate' at Crufts in 1997 !
We have made some good friends with Sue and Steve Taylor from Malvern, Worcs who bred and also selected Marley for us to own with also the view to show. (not a bad choice !!!) and we thank them for letting us share the years with him.
So 'thank you' Marley for giving us the pleasure of knowing you and giving us unconditional love ! for all the naughty things you did !! and for all the good times we all shared with you !! You will always hold a special place in our hearts ..... and don't worry we'll take care of your favourite red ball !!! xx
