The interesting one for me was the pug…..how breeders have altered these poor creatures over the years, their faces so flat now they can hardly breathe..they look nothing like their original breed.

The love of our pets is so pure and total. My condolences on Pembury.

Whenever we meet a “dog person” we pick out one of the doggies to present to them……as we hope to keep Bill’s lifelong love of dogs alive and well.
These photos, and the emotions they convey, are totally wonderful.
So glad that Libby shared her treasures with you/us.
Thanks, as ever.
