Sad news...

After such a joyful occasion, we received the sad news that a friend of ours had passed away.

Her name was SeaLords Back to the Future, but we all knew her as Nana.
Nana was a sweet and beautiful old lady that I met several times whenever I visited her place with my owners.

She was already over 13 years old, which I understand is a lovely age for our breed, although, for our owners, we always leave too soon... Unfortunately, seems that’s just how we were created by nature and there’s no way around it. But I know she lived a happy life, always surrounded by the love of her owners, right until the end.

These photos were taken one month after she turned 13

Wasn't she beautiful?...

I will surely keep Nana’s remembrance with great fondness.
Rest in peace, sweet lady…

CHAMPION OF PORTUGAL!

Hi everyone! It's been a while since I've been here last, but I just wanted to share with you that, this last weekend, I obtained my Champion of Portugal title!
Seems like it was a big thrill for my owners. For me, it was just like any other day... Actually, I don't understand very well all that champion stuff, nor what have I got to gain from it! So far, the food is the same... Anyway, everyone around me seemed very happy and you know I'm a sucker for happy people. There was even this couple, speaking this strange language, that somehow looked slightly familiar, although I have no idea who they are. I think I overheard from my owners something like them being my breeders. Well, whoever they were, they looked happy too!

Here is a photo of me in one of those strange positions I told you about before... This can be very tiresome, mind! It's not easy to be a show dog...

But, this time, I didn't even mind much because there was this nice girl, called Greta Garbo of Bushy Bear, by my side! Ain't she the cutest thing?...


OK, gotta go now! Take care and see you soon!
