Chalky dies aged 17

Sadly Chalky passed away on the 13th January 2007 at the age of 17. So loved was he that Tory MP Andrew Pelling has called for a motion to reflect on the “heartache and distress” felt by those at losing a pet, and how they come to be a member of the family like any other member.

Chalky was named after their son had an imaginary white dog with a patch on his head, his owner described him as “an exceptionally good natured dog”, a dog loved by everyone. He was also described by a fisherman local to Rick Stein’s home town as “More famous than Rickey Steinâ€?.
