I have owned dogs, or more to the point, been owned by dogs from a very young age. I can still remember persuading my Father to buy me this adorable black and white, Labrador Border Collie Cross when I was a child. Kim, as we called him, (yes him!!) lived to the grand old age of 12. He was such a personality. I still miss him even though he has been gone for over 25 years now. I currently have two dogs of my own a Working Cocker Spaniel Frankie, who I have helped to train, and a young Doberman, George. George, has brought a lot of changes to my life and was the reason why I started Waltham Rambles.
