Eric the Spaniel

Posted on: 31st March 2019

Hi! I’m Eric the Spaniel and I have been visiting Normandale for my holidays since I was a puppy. Before sending me to Normandale for the first time, my masters asked their friends for recommendations of somewhere for me to stay. A millionaire golfing associate of my master said that his dogs really looked forward to going to Normandale and he wouldn’t want them to go anywhere else for their holidays. I thought if it was good enough for them then it might just be good enough for me, so I went for a long weekend to try the place out. Well I had a great time. Pat made me feel very welcome and I soon settled in and made lots of friends (dogs and humans), but before I knew it it was time to go home again.
Since then I’ve been to Normandale several times every year for more than 6 years and I always look forward to my visits. Pat, Jackie, Karen and all of the girls always look pleased to see me and I trot happily off to my kennel with a spring in my step as I look forward to meeting new friends each holiday.
I know that my masters can go away without worrying about me and so we all have a good time.
Eric the Spaniel (and Melanie and Neil Wakelin).
