I was retired early at the age of 42 due to medical reasons and we decided, that as the children were now leaving home, it was time to add to the family and get a dog. We thought it would help to keep me active so we decided on an English Springer Spaniel.
As a Puppy
We were lucky in finding Chris and Dave Jones, a breeder in Warrington, Cheshire who had one left, a Liver and White 10 week old male, called 'Brown Major', who was from Field Trials Champion stock. For some reason the people who had initially wanted him, changed their minds - their loss was our gain.
We carried this little bundle now called Bruno home on my wife Sue's knee. I was nervous of Sue's reaction as she is allergic to some animal?s hair, thankfully though, luck was with us and she had no reaction.
Two weeks later we went to a family wedding taking our caravan and Bruno on his first holiday, his first job was to find the best bed
10 weeks old and at his new home
At 6 months old he knew how to get attention
We thought he was a gun dog but turned out to be a fish dog
His first job was to find the best bed
