In Upper Tean our Dave and Viv

Know what it’s all about

A tiny pup called Alfie

He’s cute without a doubt

On Yorkshire coast at Bridlington

We never thought that they

Would find a new addition

When Ollie passed away

This one is only four weeks old

A chocolate ball of fluff

He won’t be a replacement

But he will be enough

To ease those thoughts of sadness

As Dave sets out to train

This little chocker cocker –

Life just won’t be the same.
