Popular Post marshman 7,758 Posted February 20, 2017 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 About 5 years ago my fathers dogs got chord two borders and a lurcher pup . After that he said I'm done he wouldn't have another dog and got rid of all he's chickens as well . He's health started to go and in them 5 years he's never been down the back not once. Well this year one of my brothers split from he's missus and moved back to my mum and dads. Then yesterday he comes back from the pub with a Jack Russel pup. I go down my fathers every Monday just to check on them and my father isn't sitting in he's chair . I says to my mum where's dad she said he's down the back looking at the pup. I goes down there and he's just sitting in the sun watching the pup as happy as Larry , Funny how a dog can make you feel better. It's the first time he's been down there for years and it made me smile just thought I'd share ? 44 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gnasher16 30,598 Posted February 20, 2017 Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 Lovely,i think it might of been you Marshman who helped me get a little Jack Russell for an old boy close to me a few years back,he had not long lost his wife and pretty much given up on life.......every time i see him now he,s got a little glint in his eye again the dog is attached to him day and night im sure its put another 5 - 10 happy years on him.....i think sometimes folk who work dogs can forget the value of basic companionship that dogs can offer. 8 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think it was my mate had a pat dog but it was a but strong for him . But you're spot on you can easily forget the companionship a dog can bring ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
