Sorry for the lack of posts, we have had some severe problems with our hosting server over the past few weeks and I simply could not rely on the server to the point where I had to stop making updates for the fear of losing everything.  Anyway, all is fixed now and we have so many photos and things to share…starting with…. this photo!

In heaven! Dad, Alfie and my Mum!

I took this on the 16th December, a few days after my folks had arrived from the UK.  Alfie of course has made some new friends and they are in-separable.   It was about midnight as I recall and we had all had a few drinks.

Sorry, once again, for the lack of updates…. I have been busy working on the new website for the business and also as acting Tour Guide for my parents who arrived on the 11th December for 3 weeks.

Anyway, I have lots of photos to upload in the next few days, but here is one I took about 20 minutes ago of the boys with my mum on the sofa.

I heard some bad news on Friday.  Treacle, one of my original Pugs who I owned in the United Kingdom, died while being cared for at a vetinary clinic.  Unfortunately I do not have any real details at this time apart from she was suffering from a collapsed lung and had been in the Vet’s care for some days.  Treacle was apparently progressing well but passed away in her sleep during the night. 

Treacle was the second Pug I ever owned and was a companion to me and Samson, who I am sure you all know by now.  Treacle will now be at the Rainbow bridge with Samson who passed earlier this year. Samson Tribute

Treacle was very special and had a trick where should would bark if you asked her to “Speak!”.

I am sure Treacle and Samson are sat at the bridge right now – two great friends back together waiting for the day we can all be together again.

My condolences to my ex-wife, Almandine, as this will be an exceptionally hard time for her and the rest of the Pugs I had the very special time with, George (Denny’s Brother), Masie (Denny’s mum) and Onion (Denny’s Sister).  

We miss you Treacle.  Join me in my dreams when you have the chance.
