Finn, Jeff and Anita

We've recently had news of a number of our dogs. Photographed here is Jeff, one of Abby's sons, who lives in the north of Portugal. Much loved, and soon to be a father.

Then I had this message from Rick and Annie van de Wetering who are now Finn's owners:

"Almost a year since the original posting we can report that Finn has totally integrated as a member of the family. He understands everything we tell him and has accepted most of our idiosyncratic rules like no sleeping on chairs and sofas, no chewing on anything (including the neighbourhood cat), no jumping on the pool cover and walking to heel on the Cascais-Estoril promenade. In exchange we have accepted his boisterous play with balls in the house, flipping them into the air, his hunts for gekkos, his tiny licks like strings of kisses and sneaking his way to the foot end of our bed when he feels his beanbag is getting too cold during the night.
He has totally accepted Lucy, leaving his warm daybed to her whenever she demands and not touching her food even if his own bowl is empty.

We are so happy to have him and even our daughter who lives in England has seriously bonded with him during her recent few days here.

Regards from Rick and Ann."

And finally, from Slovenia, a film and song for Anita, from one of our earliest litters:

My thanks to everyone for the news.
