Gollie and Bear

I thought I would give an update as you know we lost our beloved Gollie our Giant Schnauzer on 23/3 /17
it was so hard to bear especially as march seems to be when bad things happen in our family in march 2015 I had a car crash,March 2016 Sam had a heart attack and this year on 14th march I had a TIA ( mini stroke ) then we lost our beautiful boy on the 23rd March which was the hardest of all.

Gollie was not only our dog he was our protector he had a big bark and he was a great companion we gave him a good life which sadly was cut short Sam and I shed and still shed many tears but fate brought Gollie to us one morning we both decided to ask his breeder did they have a dog puppy left we knew they had pups so I emailed I said to Sam if its meant to be there will be one if it isnt then its fate it seemed a lifetime till I got the email yes we have one boy available .
The reason for a puppy is our dogs have to learn from day one to accept people other dogs and pets and more importantly our little people of the family two, four and 6 months twins who occasionally visit.

Well here he is Bear he is now 12 weeks old and a good boy ( most of the time ) he very quickly learned to bark if someone was at the door which is handy as i m hard of hearing and is respectable to our old dogs Labrador Nell and Betty and Pat sometimes thinks they can play .
They all have a new lease of life now too running with him in the garden and field


Here is Bear

Oh, I'm in love again

Gollie will be a hard act to follow but, I'm sure, given time, Bear will do you and him proud.

Welcome to the world of Labrador Rescue Bear. :love2:

Glenys he looks absolutely gorgeous and I love his name too, it really suits him, now he's like a cuddly teddy bear but one day he'll be all grown up and the size of a young black bear :rofl:

Please keep the photos coming Glenys he's going to grow so quickly and we don't get many chances to see puppies on this Forum and they are very much appreciated.

You've got the best home possible Bear so enjoy it and keep everyone on their toes :rofl:

Glenys & Sam,

How gorgeous is he???? What a cute little guy, and learning quickly by the sounds of it. I like his name too, it must be so uplifting to have him around.

(sorry to read you'd had a stroke Glenys, hope you are quite recovered now).

Hilary, Rowley & Douma

How lovely a new (Teddy) Bear to cuddle, hope he helps in mending your broken hearts. Our Emma loves puppies and I wonder sometimes if she once had a litter of her own.

Sorry to hear about your TIA - my friend had one last July but has been fine since.

Hugs all round x
