A doggy family

Skippy, Paul's dog.
In some photos,Skippy can look a bit fierce but she is
the sweetest, gentlest little dog you could wish to meet.
Chase, Sue and Andy's dog.

We have become a doggy family! I had my own dog who I called Rinty when I was growing up. He was a cross between a collie and a German Shepherd and he was absolutely beautiful.However, when I met George, he wasn't at all keen on dogs, had no time for them in fact. Then about 4 years ago, our son Paul told us he was getting a puppy.Skippy is a cross between a Staffordshire bull terrier and a boxer and she is gorgeous! Well, I wish you could see George with her, so much for the man who didn't like dogs! Now, there is another doggy addition to our family in the form of Chase, the beautiful whippet who about 6 months ago became a member of my daughter's family. We don't see as much of Chase as we do Skippy as he lives in Scotland but we are all going on holiday in July, dogs and all so that should be fun! Having Skippy and Chase in our family has reminded me just how much love and affection a dog gives and how loyal they are. Skippy and Chase are definitely part of our family now and I wouldn't have it any other way.And as for the man who didn't like dogs, I really don't know what happened to him!
