These two lovely ladies Sharon & Kerry arrived yesterday bearing a very welcome envelope, inside of which was a cheque for £1000 Thanks so much to the chap who nominated us. It was lovely to meet the girls and one of them is going to come and walk some dogs for us, the other one has three Springers so we think she will be doing her fair share of walking them.

Mr Stewart and Buster xx >>
Posted: 3rd June 2014

This is my dad chick and Buster, his shadow. He would never leave his side ever since we got him as a pup, we were going to call him baffy as he would sit and chew on my dad's, but he got called buster as my gran suggested it. Wherever my dad went buster would follow, as my dad said a dogs a mans best friend. Sadly my dad passed away suddenly in January so we raised £400 at his funeral for second chance kennels as he loved my dog buster and other dogs, we thought it would be right to give it to other dogs looking for a home to be cared and loved just how my dad loved buster and buster loved my dad.

Hi Fiona so sorry to hear about your dad, Thank you so much for doing this in his memory as you say he would be glad to hear that £400 was donated at his funeral, he had helped other wee ones who are looking for homes. Please pass on our sincere condolences to you and your family xx.
