🌿Alfie, King of the Woods 🌿

The path through the woods feels quieter today,
Where fifteen years of memories lay.
We look for the flash of your happy tail,
On the muddy tracks of our favorite trail.

We remember the sticks you tried to tow,
Three times your size, but you wouldn't let go.
With stubborn pride and a determined pace,
The happiest dog in the whole wide space.

A king at home, with a royal dish,
Of steak and chicken and salmon fish.
Spoilt by your mummies, treasured and held,
A life full of love, utterly unparalleled.

The final car journey has come to an end,
Go run free now, our beautiful friend.
Find the biggest branch by the heavenly tree,
Alfie, our little man, forever you'll be.

🌿 In Loving Memory of Macy 🌿

Today, we said a heartfelt goodbye to a very special girl, Macy. Described by her devoted owners, Roi and Donna, as "the best spaniel ever," Macy was a wonderful friend, loyal companion, and a truly cherished dog whose gentle nature touched everyone who knew her.

Macy spent her life surrounded by love in the peaceful village of Littlebourne, where she enjoyed a happy and contented time with her beloved dog sister, Peaches and her extended family. Together they shared countless adventures, quiet walks, and the simple pleasures of village life, creating memories that will be treasured forever.

Known for her exceptionally mild-mannered and kind nature, Macy had a way of making everyone feel welcome. She was calm, affectionate, and endlessly loyal, always happiest when spending time with her family and those she loved. Her gentle spirit and unwavering companionship made her not only a treasured pet but a true friend.

Macy's life was filled with love, comfort, and care, and the bond she shared with Roi, Donna, and her family was clear to all who met her. Although saying goodbye is never easy, the memories she leaves behind are a testament to a life well lived and a dog who was deeply adored.

It was an honour to help Macy on her final journey and to ensure her farewell reflected the dignity, gentleness, and love that defined her life.

Our thoughts are with Roi, Donna, their children, Peaches, and all those who knew and loved Macy during this difficult time. Her pawprints will remain forever in their hearts. 🤍

🌿 In Loving Memory of Florence 🌿

This week, we said a gentle goodbye to a much-loved girl, Florence. With her soft black coat, Florence had a calm, friendly nature and a quiet charm that made her instantly adored by everyone she met.

Florence came into her family’s life as an adorable puppy, growing up surrounded by love, laughter and companionship. She lived a full and happy life with Robert, Melita and their family, and shared a particularly special bond with her grandpawrents, whose home opens out onto the beautiful beaches of Kingsdown. It was there that Florence spent many of her happiest moments, enjoying the sea air, the open space, and the simple joy of being close to those she loved. She was also cherished by another set of grandpawrents in Deal, where she spent more happy time being fussed and loved.

She was a relaxed and gentle soul, always welcoming, always content, and never happier than when she was with her people or strolling along the shoreline.

Although Florence lived to a wonderful age, her passing came suddenly due to illness, making her loss all the more difficult for those who loved her. Despite this, her final moments were filled with peace and surrounded by her devoted family, a reflection of the love and care she was given throughout her life.

It was an honour to help Florence on her final journey and to ensure her goodbye was as calm and dignified as the life she lived.
Our thoughts are with Robert, Melita, their family, and all who knew and loved Florence during this difficult time. 🤍
