Lorraines story

Pets as Therapy

If you want to live a healthier life get a dog, research suggests...A psychologist from Queen's university Belfast, said dog owners tended to have lower blood pressure and cholesterol. she says that regular 'walkies' may partly explain the difference.
Research showed dog owners suffered fewer minor ailments and serious medical problems.

The Goose Retrieving Cavalier...There's no doubt about it, beneath those long ringlet ears and adorable loving eyes the Cavalier is really quite a game little dog. They may enjoy being pampered and cuddling up on their owner's lap, but despite their diminutive size the sporting instinct is still very apparent. To prove a point, take a look at this You Tube video of Ruby retrieving a goose with complete ease that is on par with any retrieving gun dog. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gD53MbN7q5A
