Does any one keep or has kept these dogs. The one and only time I have ever seen these lovely creatures was some 45/46 years ago, and always told myself that one day I would have a pair of them
I will dip in and out of the board, as I have a few jobs to do this morning, and am going out for a couple of hours, from lunch time.
Many Thanks

Julia, that was a blast from the past, lol... My Nan had one when I was young.... he was called Bruce, was brilliant with children, but had sore ears when he got older.... we had to be careful not to touch them... I loved him, he was so gentle. it must be at least 45 years since he died..... he had died a few years before Nan did in 1966.

Love

Thanks Daff for your reply. I hope I did not bring up too many memories to upset you.
We are thinking, in the future we hope, to go into this breed, but for now, we have an 8yr old very irracible Cocker Spaniel, who does seem to spend as much time at the vets, as I do in hospital.
However, we would not be without her, and we know she would not stand other dogs invading her space.
Lots of Love, and take care.
