Thank you for your kind messages everyone. Millie will leave a big hole in our lives but thankfully no more in the lawn, trying to out do Peggy in the mole catching stakes.
We will have lots of lovely memories. I bought her as a present for DH but as a tiny puppy she bonded with me, snuggled in her basket, listening to Mozart while I cooked Sunday lunch. She made it perfectly clear whose dog she wanted to be!
Peggy is rather subdued tonight so we'll focus on making sure she isn't lonely. Sadly our cat Jazz, who was Peggy's best mate, went missing two months ago and hasn't been found.
Our numbers seem to be rapidly depleting.
Thanks, once again. Your kind thoughts are much appreciated.
