I’ve always loved all animals …. especially dogs but because of my work and travel commitments throughout my 48 year working life, I knew I couldn’t give a dog the love and attention they deserve. My husband and I have now retired and our gorgeous Labradoodle puppy arrived in 2022. We adore her and she has truly enriched our lives. I wake up every morning to her beautiful face and excitement to see us. Her tail wagging furiously waiting for her pats and Dad telling her she is the best dog in the world! We are truly blessed! She keeps us fit and active but more importantly, gives us a real sense of purpose in our retirement years.
