                                              grand age of 14.  David and Angela made a very

                                              kind donation of £50 in her memory.


                                              David  also  donated  his  Club  200  winnings  of

                                              £97.00 in remembrance of Susie.



                       David wanted to share Susie’s story with BTRF supporters.


     ‘The sudden loss of Susie has indeed been devastating, we miss her dearly every day.
     We rescued her when she  was roughly four years  old, she  had  been bred to near

     death and kept in a small ramshackle shed, outside, and in appalling conditions, her
     legs,  tail  and  ears  were  just  skin,  her  coat  had  been  burned  off  by  being  kept
     knee  deep in urine, she was just a little, living skeleton.


     Fast forward six months and the transformation was truly remarkable. She was the
     most loving, gentle and loyal wee girl but also showed all the hunting characteristics

     when out mooching the hedgerows.

     We had the pleasure of her company for 10 years, given we were told she was four

     when we got her made her 14 when she left us. It was so sudden and we still can't
     quite take it in.


     We  still  have  our  Millie,  who  is  approximately                Did you know you can leave
     seven.    She  was  rescued  by  us  out  of  China,                             a legacy to
