TEN-year-old golden retriever Cassie is our pet of the week.

She loves nothing more than running around with her best friend and fellow golden retriever Orla in Lilford Park, where this picture was taken.

Cassie lives with David and Linda Sykes on Westrees in Leigh and has had two litters in her life, giving birth to seven surviving puppies.

David said: “She was a perfect mum. Two of her puppies now live in France.

“Both Cassie and Orla may be old now but they are great with our three grandchildren and very lively for their age.

“She is a beautiful dog and she just loved the English bluebells in the park.”
