Page 2 - Spring Newsletter2024

Welcome to your Spring 2024 Newsletter and a big thank you
as always to all who contribute such interesting pieces to share
on these pages. Once again, if you’d prefer a paper copy of this
or future Newsletters just ask our secretary and she will post
one out to you as they are also still being printed.

I honestly didn’t know what to write about this time in the Ed’s
little piece and then, quite by chance, this popped up on my phone. It’s so
true and is the perfect thought to add here:
“Animals have come to mean so much in our lives. We live in a
disconnected culture. Politics are ugly, religion is struggling,
technology is stressful, and the economy is unfortunate.
What’s one thing that we have in our lives that we can depend on?
A dog or a cat loving us unconditionally, every day, very faithfully.”
Jon Kat
We are so lucky to have Keeshonds to share our lives with.
Spring at last has sprung! Editor (Kit Wadmore-Smith)
