Yarrow's Page

My best friend Yarrow

To every one who knew Yarrow:

Yarrow is no longer with me. However, I'll keep this page as it was, because it's too hard to change it.

So this page is a celebration of a wonderful friend.

Yarrow at home 2006

My dog Yarrow was, at the time, probably the most important person at Heron's Flight. He was very fond of

  • me
  • other people and some other dogs
  • beanbags and a nice warm fire
  • food
  • walks

- not necessarily in that order.
In his old age, he even liked Sponge!

Yarrow walking with a guest

He really loved escorting my guests on tours of the village ...

If he got so far then lost interest,or if it started raining, he just turned around and came home again, with or without his escort!

That was quite OK: all the locals know him and were well aware that he knew the village smells, nooks and crannies much better than they did.

Yarrow in front of the fire

Yarrow was equally delighted to be sitting on his bean-bag in front of the fire, as in this photo, or out and about in the garden.

If it was a cold evening though, his efforts to warm both sides of himself were very funny to watch!

Yarrow and Ann best of friends

Yarrow had a troubled puppy-hood, and so when he arrived at Heron's Flight and found how fond of him Dolan and I became, he latched on and simply became part of the family from then on.

He was a wonderful friend and companion. Indeed, some of my most sensible conversations were with Yarrow. Often, we did not need even to converse!!
