My story starts two and a half years ago when I was just a pup, living the dream with my Mum and siblings in a barn in the Brecon Valley’s, UK. Life was all about playing and sleeping without a care in the world. That was just about to change……

This morning in particular a stranger arrived at the farm and after a lot of chasing I was finally cornered, swept up into the farmers arms and handed over to stranger, who was to become my guardian and best friend.

Despite speaking softly and reassuring me that everything was going to be ok things got a whole lot worse for me that day. I was taken away from my Mum and siblings, got to travel in a car for the first time, saw the inside of a house and after being poorly for pretty much the whole four hour journey home I got to experience my very first bath. Thankfully once I was dry I was left to explore my surroundings and find a quiet place to relax.
