This is a lovely quartet, what great characters as can be told from their eyes. And well done you for all rescues (rescue is the best breed!). All our dogs and some of our horses are rescues - including 1 dog and 1 horse from Spain.

Hoopy, an Italian Segugio hunting dog, also a rescue dog, was added about 4 years later. Our latest addition, Mikroulis (Greek for 'little one') - our new puppy, acquired from one of our neighbours, was added yesterday to the painting.
