Thank you all so much for your messages, we so appreciate your good wishes.
Apologies for the size of the picture, I couldnt get the link to copy on photobucket so tried tinypics and up pops this huge photo. Whats in a name, I will try to get it right one day.
We feel so blessed with our two and seeing all these beautiful Retrievers on this website just gladdens the heart. I love them all, just cannot help myself.
I will keep you updated as to her progress and how Poppy is responding, or as we now say, "our girlies".
Best wishes to all, thanks again
Jill
