I am a doggy person through and through. We had dogs growing up, cocker spaniel and English setter, but due to working I haven't owned one but am always very happy when friends come to visit and bring theirs. Particularly my friend with 3 Springer spaniels who had a great time at Christmas. I am recently retired and my house is very dog friendly with a nice secure garden and a comfy house with a kitchen conservatory opening on to the garden which is great in the summer. Your dog would be happy here and have nice walks by the canal and other nearby woods in the surrounding areas or on my golf course close by. I am fit and healthy so enjoy walking.
