oooooh post pics of your Springers. I love them, the eyes absolutely say it all - they are so expressive.

(my springers eyes normally say "yes I have just eaten all the wheels on your car, but you gotta catch me first before you tell me off")

We are also living your nightmare - our stupid cocker spaniel got skunk'd last Saturday night (1am) in the face...... we have tried everything and he still smells but with less fur now!!!

Oh the joys of living in Canada........(well the dog is living in the garage at the moment!)

But you know, smell or no smell - I wouldn't be without him !
