Henry had been in one of our foster homes after coming into rescue due to his owners marriage breakup. I took Dolly and we went over Northampton way to meet him. Needless to say, when I met Henry, I didn't know then that he would be such a grumpy old thing but Dolly took to him straight away so he came home with us.
The first few days weren't so good for Henry as Bumpy's health suddenly deteriorated and I spent most of the weekend back and forth to the vets and then sadly, on the Monday, Bumpy couldn't fight the cancer any more.
When I posted about Henry on the Refuge forum, one of the members, Nettie, said that he looked very distinguished and aloof and should be a Sir, so Sir H stuck!
Since being here, Wiggle arrived and we sadly lost Dolly. Pudding and Polly foster dogs came and went and Sir H has not shown much interest in anything at all, not even our adventures like weekends away, camping and lovely walks.
Here's some photo's from Sir H's first year with me.

Happy First Gotcha Day Sir H! You're a grumpy old thing, but we do love you!
