Meet Penelope


This is the sweetest little addition to our family.
Penelope - or Nelly as we are all calling her.

She's a little Cavocker (King Charles Caviller x Cocker Spaniel)

She is a gift to Gretta - as she's now 4 and a half and still has a very big fear of animals. She had a traumatic dog experience when she was a baby and has been eternally petrified of all animals. Even our farm dogs can make her scream in terror.  Well, now she has the adorable Nelly to follow her around and we've got our fingers crossed that this little pot belly girl will help our girl break down some of her barriers so that she doesn't live her life in fear of animals.

By the way... She's very stinkin' cute.

Hi Gretta, Can't wait to meet Penelope in March, she looks a very friendly little dog. Nanny & my sister used to have a Cocker Spaniel when we were growing up & he was very much loved.
Love Nanny & Grandad xx
