My dog who’s on my avatar, a blue roan cocker spaniel, I absolutely love so much, she’s an old gal, 12 in the summer 😊

Yes I saw. My very good friend cocker spaniel Lucky passed away on Wednesday of an aggressive cancer at 10. I am finding it difficult to console her as she had no children except a spaniel and a Beagle also 10. Dogs can be so therapeutic for those on their own - gets you out of the house if you are able. I hope things go super well for you and your condition.

Oh my goodness you must be heartbroken 🤗 I get soooo upset if I loose a pet, it’s awful, I think their little eyes say it all, big hug

I love seeing everyone's four-legged family members, having them in our lives is such a boost when coping with heart conditions (and other health conditions). They give us a reason to stay connected.

Love his name, Marco Polo was such an interesting person from the little known about him and his world travels, did you choose the name owing to your lovely wee lad being a world traveller with you?

Well Marco was born in Singapore and Marco Polo was an Asian explorer. He was originally called Macho at birth by his mothers owner as he was the biggest of 3 puppies. However "Macho" does not fit easily with a little poodle hence I changed to Marco haha. Anyway better get back to heart issues otherwise I will get told off 🐕

Great story about how he came by his name, thank-you! As for heart-related, I really do think our pets are heart-helpers so I don't see this discussion being at all off-topic:)
