Dog days

Maura Pierlot

30 November 2019

Losing a family pet is always heartbreaking. We lost our beloved 11-year-old dog in 2014 and then our our one-of-a-kind schnoodle earlier this year, all the more heartbreaking as she was only four. We swore we never wanted to go through that sort of pain again. Yet here we are, this time with two pups – Bordoodles (Border Collie-poodle cross). We’re already besotted with Archie (right) and Lola who – wouldn’t you know? – love books too!
