Our hearts ache at the loss of our amazing and beautiful Freddy.
The only house dog at the Raymond's since his retirement from the ring, we still expect his face to greet us each day.
His toys are not put away, his bowls still sit in their places.
We are finding it difficult to replace him in the house.
Which dog will ever have his presence and protective love for us.
