Gone But Not Forgotten

TOBY

Dear John

Heartbreakingly we have to let you know that Toby was put to sleep yesterday. Toby was a wonderful springer who was much loved by everyone who knew him.

We retired early 2020 and moved with him to the Yorkshire Dales where he had the freedom of the hills to bounce around doing what springers do best. He was afraid of water when he came to us but with the amount of rain up here, he quickly got over that and learnt to swim which added a whole new excitement to his life.

Toby would have reached his 14th birthday in November but over the last year he had become arthritic, he was losing his eyesight, his hearing, and his marbles too. The time came when he needed help to get up and struggled to lie down.

Thank you for introducing such a wonderful dog to us.

BELLE

Belle gbnf

Hello John.

Our beloved Belle passed away on 4th September aged 16 years. She was a joy and loved by everyone. She had an amazing 11 years with us joining in everything we did. I miss her so much.

Would be grateful if you could arrange to have her shown in Gone but not forgotten.

Thanks,

Rosalyn Williams

LOLA

Lola GBNF

My wife and I would just like to let you know that our beloved Lola that we adopted from your organisation back in July 2017 has passed away.

We collected her from Stoke on Trent and have enjoyed so many wonderful years together - she recently became very poorly with lung and liver conditions and passed away on Saturday 7th March with my wife in attendance at our local vets offices in Waddington Lincoln.

Lola had been a major part of our life every day since she joined the family home back in July 2017 and was featured in several of the CAESSR annual calendars over the years. At this stage we are both heartbroken at her loss and remember her fondly every day.

We would really like to be considered for adopting another cocker spaniel in the future - perhaps after a 6-9 month period once we have come to terms with the loss of Lola.

Kind regards

Frank & Beverley Finch

HECTOR

Hector GBNF

Dear Di and all at Caessr

We adopted our beloved cocker spaniel Hunter ( who we renamed Hector ) in 2018 when he was 17months old. He was such a unique character and was known around the village for being so friendly. We had our challenges with him as he would eat any thing and had bowel surgery a couple of times but that never put him off going to the vets - he loved going there and they loved him as well.

He has been such a big part of our family and adored by us and our grandchildren. Sadly in May he was diagnosed with lymphoma and although he had three different types of chemotherapy- he didn’t respond.

We were lucky we had a few more weeks with him than we thought we would but very sadly had to have limpet down on 11.11 2025.

We have a big hole in the family and home at the moment. Thank you for letting us adopt such a wonderful dog.

Kind regards

John and Jenny Liggitt

EDDIE

Eddie GBNF

Hi John and everyone at CAESSR

I am sorry to say that Eddie woke with a distended tummy this morning. After much exploration throughout the day, his scan found a burst liver tumour bleeding into his tummy. The vet told us there was no alternative but to put him to sleep. He went peacefully just before 5pm.

Eddie was the most beautiful energetic and happy boy. An absolute treasure who brought pleasure to so many. The soldiers I work with adored him. He will be sorely missed by many and most of all by Paul and me for he was a fast and furious ray of sunshine in our world.

Thank you for the gift of letting us adopt him.
