<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=3>Today is a very,very sad day. I have just said very
a sad goodbye to my very last
Basset. </FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=3>Dylan was almost 15/12 years old and I thought he
would go on forever. the last few days have taught me otherwise, he was clearly
in some distress and we very reluctanatary bowed to the inevitable. Our
local Vet came to the house and we put his distress to an
end.</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=3></FONT></STRONG> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=3>Dylan was the last of my Bassets, following on from
Fred, Bobby,Pallas,Flaxen,Pansy, Flash & Poppy over a period of 45
years.</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=3></FONT></STRONG> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=3>I miss them all so much but at 76 I really can not
take on another one unless it is a very old one and even then I am not sure that
I can go through the heartache again.</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=3></FONT></STRONG> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=3>From the 13 Dec thro 6th Jan I am on vacation in
Madeira Beach Florida and by then I will be in dire need of a Basset
cuddle, if you are in that location, please help me out.</FONT></STRONG></DIV>

<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=3>Dylan never won any prizes or cups, except for "The
Longest Dog " at the 50th anniversary of the UK Basset Hound Club but as anyone
who met him- he was definitely one of the Characters of the Basset
world</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
