OUR BELOVED MAGGIE HAS GONE (15.11.2017)

Her Mum, Louise, posted “Our beautiful, beloved Maggie has gone. She had leukaemia but hid it till her final days. I wish we’d known sooner, there was so much more I wanted to do for her.

Run free gorgeous girlie, you’ve taken a big piece of my heart with you”.

A few days later she added “Thank you to everyone for your kind messages of support, cards and flowers after our beloved Maggie so very suddenly joined the Golden gang at Rainbow Bridge.

Knowing so many of you understand our pain and cared about our darling girl from Cork means more than I can say.

Millie, her sister/daughter, who we adopted with her, is obviously missing her hugely but the other dogs seem to be giving her comfort and she’s searching and watching the door less by the hour.

I tried to take a new photograph of the five today, but no matter how I sat/stood them, they left a space (for Mags?) and looked so sad.

Finally, Edward the cat appeared and brought some light relief! In the past, it was only Maggie who chased him – it looks like her legacy isn’t going to be a cat tolerant one!”

EARLY HISTORY

Maggie and Millie were 6 year old when they were taken into IRR care in 2015. As loving sisters they had to be rehomed together. They were both spayed and vaccinated.

Maggie and Milly came to IRR through the Cork Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals on the condition that both sisters would remain together for the rest of their lives and that is exactly what Irish Retriever Rescue assured them would happen. They were owned by a loving family whose circumstances changed, and they were unable to care for them as well as they wanted and so they needed to make sure they would be loved as much as they were before.

FOSTER ASSESSMENT

Maggie and Millie both have delightful personalities and are extremely affectionate. They follow each other around and are absolutely devoted to one another as they have lived together all their lives.

Millie is the most mischievous of the two sisters with Maggie being the quieter one.

Maggie and Millie are both housetrained and good with children and dogs. They travel well in the car and are good on the lead. Both of them need further training with recall! Their favourite pastime has been to chase cats!

DREAM HOME
Quite simply Maggie and Millie need a happy home together where they will be completely loved and adored.

GREAT NEWS (September 2015)

They were fostered by Louise and family in Norfolk who fell for their charms and, subsequently adopted them so Maggie and Millie are already in their Forever Home
