I have a dog and a cat merlin and Ebony Doo I had two dogs but unfortunately lost my eldest in May so I got a cat as merlin was pining and I can’t manage another dog. Speaking of which I’ve just been for a very short walk on the beach with merlin it made me feel so much better merlin is in the picture if it uploads

@LindaBlacker‍ ... Sorry to hear about the lump... My little Jack Russell, Rhodie, recently had a large melanoma (lump of fatty tissue, usually benign) taken out of his right hip so was a bit down in the dumps for a few weeks. The vet was superb and did what they could for him, but due to his age of 13 years now, we haven't got the heart to put him through a more extensive operation. The vet told us rather enjoy him whilst we can.

@Daisydef‍ ... Looking forward to seeing the pictures!

May I say whoever suggested getting a pet/dog from gumtree or indeed puppy farms are absolutely wrong Never go anywhere but a registered rescue if looking for rescue animal. Online you have no clue what animal went thru or how their poor mother was treated Puppy farms are notorious for cruelty and fith and cross and over breading to the point of death. Online often stolen dogs with ppl looking to make a fast bit of money. Rescue centres & Registered animal charities all the way Thank you

There are some wicked people out there. There only concern is making money at the expense of the dogs suffering. Pure evil take care

I lost my dog Herbie in June and really struggled with my mental health problems. It was that bad my kids clubbed together and have bought me a rescue dog called Honey who arrived on Saturday. I am already sleeping better

@JazzyC‍... Aww, so glad you have found a new dog and am pleased to hear Honey came from a rescue.

What breed of dog is she? Our dogs are so precious and having their comfort and loyalty means so much!
