Larry and Haston

Now this is an idea to save you walking the dog!  Meet Larry and Haston, two English Bulldogs who live in Menton. Here they are in Menton's beautiful Parc du Pian.

Milou, the GoldenDoodle

This beauty is a GoldenDoodle (a mix of a Golden Retriever and a Poodle) - isn't she gorgeous.

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.

Black and White

This little dog looks a bit like a Tibetan Terrier but with prick ears - so I don't know what he is - other than he's cute.

Jagger

Jagger, a shih-tzu who lives in Nice.

Darwin

A new puppy Golden Retriever puppy - nearly four months old and already chasing sticks on one of Menton's beaches. He's called Darwin. Adorable!

Gaia

Bisous

Bisous (kisses) lives in Menton and is 7 years old. Her mother was a Llasa Apso but, as her owners told me, her father didn't leave a visiting card!

Me and my Reflection ...

It's dusk and a French bulldog is out walking on the Coulée Verte in Nice.

Lands of the Giants

Chihuahuas it seems to me, need courage, dealing with all those enormous legs and boots that surround them.

Whisky

Whisky is a Maltese terrier who lives in Nice.  Don't you love his 'direct at the camera' look.  So much in those eyes.

Cali

Cali, a beautiful Golden Retriever, poses by the Coulée Vert in Nice at dusk.

Dog walker

A dog walker in Nice last night.  She has seven dogs in her charge, although two are hidden.  I nearly got run over!

Happy New Year's Eve everyone!

Roxy

Shopping basket

So where does the shopping go?

Maggie

Maggie is a Red and White Irish Setter who lives in Monaco and loves pulling funny faces!

Choupinette

This is Choupinette, aged 11 and blind in one eye. She is a 'Royal Bourbon' - a breed from the Isle of Reunion, from where she was rescued and brought into France for adoption.  Horrifically dogs are sometimes used as shark bait on the Isle of Reunion - yes, a hook fixed, often through the nose and thrown in the sea. 

Waiting in line ...
