Robbie as he was known to many was very popular in the village, always going the extra mile, cheerfully greeting everyone, both human and canine, whatever the weather.

Villagers wished Robbie a long and happy retirement, presenting him with a selection of malt whiskys from around the world, a Waterford crystal glass, a picnic hamper and a £305 gift voucher.
