Ten years ago

These photographs popped up on my Facebook page today.




Left to right: Roxy, Jenna, Gus, Lolly, Bertie. 
Roxy and Lolly are still with us. Lolly is eleven and lives in London. Roxy is ten.

Roxy, Bertie and Jenna. Roxy still loves to carry a ball. She used to follow Bertie everywhere. Now she follows Gilbert!



Happy days!

  2. No wonder you are known locally as "The Dog Woman of Berkshire"! I sense that you would not have been the same woman without your dogs. It is obvious that they have greatly enriched your life.

    1. They have. We have been very lucky. They're not everyone's choice by any means.

  3. I love to look back at memories, either cats or grandchildren, a great way to start the day.

  6. I so admire people who can control more than one dog at a time, I came to dog ownership relatively late in life and despite a fair bit of effort our dogs aren't very well trained.......bad dog , bad owner????
    The photos are lovely.

    1. It's so much easier if you have greedy dogs and all ours have been food orientated, but you never stop learning.

  10. What a grand crew you had! Some years ago we walked in our surrounding forest with up to six dogs. Those were happy times.

  11. the most we had at one time were three, all about the size of these dogs. Life without a dog is no life at all for me... I was so glad when I married and got my own house because I could have indoor dogs. Daddy let us have one only but not in the house. I would love all your dogs, those gone and still with you. I would love to play with them in that beautiful yard
