Does Life need meaning?

What of the Moment?

What of Now?

That was Fern's philosophy and that is the happiness she brings.

Welcome to "A Dog To Inspire"...

Fern, a black Flatcoated Retriever, was born in Lincoln, U.K. on April 29th 1991 and lived all her life there.

Her father was Yorkshire bred Champion Llecan Gambit and her great grandfather was the legendary International Champion Shargleam Blackcap, best in show (Champion of Champions) at Crufts.

What had people to say about Fern

"A blithe spirit" Sandy Long.
"Second to none" George Clapperton.
"A delight" Nigel Williams.

Then, people said other things

"Never seen such a severe case" Edward Hall.
"I can't see much future for Fern" Cathy O'Rourke.
"There's nothing more can be done" David Ashcroft.

But Fern was the dog who did it her way
