A reputable breeder in the north contacted me as he had an ex-brood bitch that needed a new loving home. Obviously we don't help rehome dogs for people selling their dogs but are willing to help out if a dog needs a home and we have people looking. Anyway after having spent a fair part of her life being kennelled outside (and well looked after I hasten to add) Sophie now resides at the other end of the country, spends most of her day pottering around the house and garden with her new mummy and shares the sofa with her mum and dad all evening. She's one happy little girl.
