Surely “Spent time with”?

I had a dog just like that. He was a good pup

What was he when he fully matured?

Springer spaniel

Was he a good Springer Spaniel?

He was a good boy. He’s missed

I don’t doubt that, you said he was a good pup but, you made no reference to the rest of his life, did he die young and I am going to end up feeling guilty for shouting my mouth off?
That is what usually happens.

No we actually owned the Afghan hounds there is a story about that If i may post. Sue always wanted an Afghan hound and i always wanted a dog. So after we got marred we spent time at dog shows meeting people in the breed to learn a bit more about them. we did ask about obtaining one as a pet and most breeders said basically no but not in so many words.
Eventually we met the lovely lady Called Ann Allen with the Kabella registered name registered with the kennel club.
Ann said she didn’t have any puppies but invited us to her house to talk about the breed. After a couple of house shesaid actually she did have some puppies about 2 weeks old, and would we like to see them. WHAT YOU BET WE DID. So of to the “puppy” room we went.
The puppies were from the rare “blue line” of afghan hounds and there was one white one among them
the white one was born on the gravel drive Just as Margaret Niblock pulled up. she was world famous for her Kanabad white warrior who spotted the white puppy. Bit of a small story there but for another tale to tell.
!
homes, so off we went to get our very first puppy dog.
Note a side piece. Herr francenburger in Germany, a top breeder over there wanted the white one for a foundation stock of blues.

Anyway we greeted by Ann and very excited to get our new “baby” having bought everything for it.
From the puppy room she bought out the White one for us “”“”" wow"“”“” we could not believe it. As we lived close Ann could help us if wanted.
from there we started to Show -breed and eventually buy a boading kennels
