12.12.10 Nunu has found the perfect new home. ……………………………………… 12 year old Nunu is a very gorgeous DLH who’d like to be curled up on your sofa.

Alfie (Lizzie’s Barn Animal Sanctuary, South Wales)
20/6/10 – After the good news of Alfie finding a new home, we have some very sad news. Yesterday afternoon, Alfie was out pottering in the sunshine in the sanctuary garden when he suddenly collapsed and died. Fionna was with him and couldn’t do anything to save him. They suspect the poor little man had a massive heart attack. The Sanctuary people are absolutely devastated, as are the wonderful family who were due to be homechecked for him today and hoping to bring him home next weekend. Sleep well, little one.
