Meet Blossom.  She's a Havanese (the national dog of Cuba) - and she lives with her sister part of the time in the UK and part of the time in Monaco. Here she is thinking life must be better the other side of the terrace railings.

Mia


Sometimes I look through old photos - don't we all!  Here's Mia, a Bassett Ariégeois   - I adopted her from a refuge years ago and she died last year.  She was a lovely dog although always scared of the world because of her past. Loved other dogs though - and me!

Hémy and Rosie


This is a photo I took about three years ago.   Hémy, a Havanese is on the left and Rosie, a Llasa Apso, is on the right.They live in Monaco. At the time I was looking after them for their owners and they had the best time playing with each other.

Barilla




This is Barilla - she's a terrier mix and is sometimes cared for by my friend Sylvie in Menton, when her owner goes away.  Note: her partially blue eye. You see this sometimes in dogs - even with half a brown eye and the other half blue.

She's named after the Italian brand of pasta!

Ears back,  this little cutie is a bit scared.  But come back tomorrow and see her in a totally different frame of mind.

Japanese Chin


Here's a breed you don't often see - a Japanese Chin.  It's a type of toy spaniel and was well-known to the Japanese nobility. It's also known for have a 'strabismus' of the eye. And no, I didn't know what that meant either! Apparently it means it has a squint! I met this little cutie in Menton.

Table Dog?


This Jack Russell looks as if he's standing on a table but in fact he is standing on a wall alongside this restaurant in Place du Cap, Menton.   Dogs are part of life in France and if you go to a restaurant, then of course, your dog can go too.  I approve!

Lolly



Boxer puppies are adorable... well all puppies are adorable!  I love Boxers but they are boisterous and very strong. She'll be a ball of muscle when she matures.  Her name is Lolly and I met her on the pedestrian street in Menton.

Milou is only one and a half years old yet so well behaved.  She lives in Munich and was on her way home - just passing through Menton.
