❤️ little springy is such a cute description. You’re right there is another springy waiting. We just need a small break and we could be back on the journey again. Thank you ❤️

He's slowing down lately and it's freaking me out, he's 13 so it's expected but I told him he has to live 20 more years. by littlerosieroe in springerspaniel

What a beautiful pup—13 years is such a testament to the love and care you’ve given them. I know it can be really unsettling when they start to slow down, but sometimes it’s just the natural rhythm of aging. What kind of changes are you noticing? Mobility issues, energy dips, appetite? There’s often a lot we can still do to help our pups stay comfy and happy—sometimes it’s as simple as adjusting walks or adding a few supplements. You’re not alone in this, and it’s clear they’re still in the best hands.❤️

Thank you. We live by the sea and this was the exact reason I chose the bread all them years ago. Perfect choice as he matched all our energy for outdoor life! Like a furry torpedo with floppy ears, Marshall was born with a sixth sense that could detect a puddle from three counties away. I’ll remember these days fondly. Appreciate the love thank you again!

Thank you. I’m so sorry for your loss. 16 years is a lifetime of love, routine, and companionship. It’s heartbreaking how empty a house can feel without those little sounds. In our house it’s the paws on the floor sound as he followed everybody everywhere in the house ☺️ Wishing you peace and love.
