In the Beginning .. .

I cant even begin to write this blog without at least giving you some of the background to it . . . .

For as long as I can remember I have wanted a dog, But for a whole host of reasons my parents never thought it practical.
So, I acquired my first dog at the ripe old age of 26!!! :)
He was an undocked, tan & white, Jack Russell Terrier named Jazz. Bought at a pet shop and to cut a long story short . . . .I had to have him put down after a month, the vets said  that they suspected he had a congenital birth defect. I came home one afternoon and he could not hear or see, almost like he had had a stroke!

Not a good start :(
