    We're cat sitting for our son, don't think we're going to get to be grand parents :), she's a very old rescue cat who spends a lot of time and money at the vets - been expected to die for the last 3 years but somehow still survives god bless her :)

    Brings back happy and sad memories for me Dougie. Happy because our Genie (Border Collie) loved snow and used to go crackerdog whenever it arrived in Aberdeenshire; sad because she was such a fabulous, loyal dog and friend and she's no longer with us.

    Had 2 Borders up till a couple of years ago, both from Shetland, Haggis & Deefa(dog), both loved the snow too!
    Your 2 look a picture, Archie is very much like Haggis, Mickey like Deefa(dog).

    Did you have Genie before Bella? Zero & Jojo look like pure labs did they have any white on their coats?

    Yes Dougie we had Genie while we were in Aberdeenshire, then back in England before finally moving to France.

    Bella came home one day after my dear wife and her mate "went to have a look" at them!! The pups (Zéro and Jojo) have very small amounts of white on them - their daddy was a sable (creme) labrador who we put to sleep the end of August 2016.

    Trésor in all his glory:

    I just checked on Hachiko and as I read through the description (can not view it yet) there came a movie
    to my mind I liked very much. Also has a great story and is quite moving:

    MAX (US 2015)

    Anyone seen it?

    I posted it here, since this is the pet's page...
