Thank you Michelle,

I have a photo of Maggie but I am not sure how to send it to you!

Take care,

Howard

Hi Michelle

Many thanks for your kind message and support for Hattie. I am afraid that the news is not good. She had a biopsy taken last week which is suggestive of osteosarcoma. Over the weekend the biopsy site became angry and sore and the analgesia that she was on wasn't keeping her comfortable so on Monday she was admitted to the surgery with a view to operating later this week but things came to a head yesterday and she had her leg amputated. I went to see her this afternoon and I thought I was prepared but it was an awful shock to see her lying there - have had tears in my eyes ever since! She is bright and eating but is sedated and on pain relief.I feel so guilty that somehow this is all my fault! Just want to have her home to look after her and give lots of love. The girls in the surgery are brilliant and Hattie is always delighted to go to the surgery but hate to think of her lying there!!

Sorry to go on - just wanted to chat to someone who loves the breed as I do. Will let you know how she gets on and fingers crossed we might have her home for the weekend.

Hi Michelle,

Thanks for the warm welcome and for inviting me to join up.  Ive enjoyed looking at your photo`s and reading your pen picture.  I can`t wait to meet you in person one day.  I will have to load some pictures on here soon too.  Thank you. x

Hello again Michelle,  Ive loaded some photo`s now but think they have gone to be anthoirized?  The last one has been kept as a profile pic but will change it if they are approved tomorrow.  Im going to take loads and loads of photo`s when i have a new puppy for all his.her life... 

Speak soon.

Hi Michelle, thanks for your nice words for my Kruszynka:-)

Hello Michelle,

Perhaps you are going to receive a question to add 'Autumn of Kyntire' on your site on the item In Memorium .

I gave the people the advice to do it.

For me, with Ynez, it gave me a good feeling.

Thank you in advance.

Merry Christmas and a happy 2012 from my home to yours.

Love,

Luc, Viviane, Queenie and Spencer.

Dear Michelle I'm so very sorry to read your news of the loss of Geordie , you devoted your life to his preservation, the care you've displayed is an astounding credit to you, in the hands of anyone else Geordie would not have known the love and care you bestowed on him. The commitment you gave him makes his passing all the more painful, I truly am weeping for you and I've only share a tiny portion of both your lives. My deepest sympathy to you, words seem shallow but I hope they give some comfort knowing many people feel your pain

Hi Michelle, i'm quite new to the site so just looking around, sorry for your loss, Geordie looked a lovely dog, i also read your stories on web site they made me laugh, liked the one of you tied up by the dogs in field at service station (",)

Thanks Ellen, pleased you liked my Irish Tails, there are plenty more still to add, just haven't had the time yet. If you go to the pedigree section on the site you will be able to trace the pedigrees of your dogs. Thanks also for your words about Geordie, he was wonderful, I adored him and I really miss him.

Thanks Michelle for friends invite, i have looked on your pedigree section did find my boys, Finlay who i have now (sebbys gorgeous green), Paddy ( hazelbeck jack be nimble) couldn't find first boy as i didnt register him but looked up his parents could only find his sires parents but enjoyed looking (",)

HI Michelle,

Thank so much for your kind words and the "friend" email. So sad when one of our beloved dogs has to say goodbye. Jack had been ill for all his life with MO but it took a few years to diagnose. He was a very happy, funny boy, full of character when he was well and I feel we were lucky to be owned by him for so long. Luckily we have LOADS of good memories, photos and videos but of course we would rather he was here with us if he could be fit and well. The other two boys are sad, especially Harry who is three, Jack and Harry were very close and he is loookng every now and agin and coming to mum for a cuddle. Lovely to be your friend and look forward to talking to you agin soon..am going to have a look at any photos you have on here now!!

Hi Michelle,

Thanks so much for your kind words and the friend request...we are very sad at the moment of course, we miss Jack terribly but the kindness and empathy we have received from other members, friends and family are all helping us through....would be lovely to chat more with you...I have had a look at your pictures...beautiful dogs you have, the youngest look full of mischief!!

Hi, Michelle, thanks for your friendship request and thank you also for amending your (brilliant ) pedigree info website last week. Our 13 month old IS Darcy is recovering from a laparotomy to remove a stone she swallowed but is getting back to her cheeky self every day now! Best wishes, Sue and Nick

Hello Michelle,

Great website for pedigrees you have! Yes of course you can use that story for your website. Can you cut and paste from ES? If not I'll send it. The picture is copyright pressagency UPI, 1976. Not sure wether or not you can use that on a website. Anyway let's hope it will inspire in these dark days for the breed. Cheers, Henk.
