It's been a very sad week at Roberts farm. Unfortunately Lucy, Al's gorgeous golden retriever, and the mother of the nine puppies that featured on the blog a few months ago, died on Sunday night.
Lucy was undoubtedly one of the soppiest dogs I have ever met. She loved a good cuddle and would sit at your feet, tapping you with her paw until you gave her the attention she wanted. In all honesty, I don't think I ever saw her without her tail happily wagging.
She was amazing with children and an incredible mother to her puppies. I hope Als and her family, especially Flora and Jemima, take solace in the thought that a little piece of Lucy exists in the heart of each one of them and that her amazing nature and gentleness will live on.
Short as it was, she had a wonderful life with a family who could not have loved her more. She will be sorely missed.
