Just as I was thinking what a lovely afternoon this was and how I could not wish for better, Angelique (Sandrine's friend who also has a Dane) walks in with more cakes !

She turned out to be a real sugar pie and popped by just to meet me, how sweet is that?Β heart

Honest to goodness, I don't think I've ever seen a dog where people gravitate to so they can just be in her aura of LOVE AND LIGHT!!
EVVVVVERYBODY loves Eurydice!!

The life Eurydice is living is HUGE...not merely in her stature, but in the lives she touches!! EVERYONE smiles in her presence! EVERYONE becomes so gentle, so @oving, so happy in ner presence! And for those moments they are with Eurydice,all of life's stresses melt away! The instantly become MORE DOG!!

We are so tnrilled to be on this amazing "love fest" vacation with you two!! Thank you for sharing the joy AND some of the most scenic places on the Planet!!

The pictures, the videos, the commentary.....DELIGHTFUL!!

And the Mini Miss Cow...lreciius!! I love how gentle the REAL Miss Cow is with everyone and...humans And dogs!

And again, what a day!! You are so busy meeting and loving people. Eurydice, I'm curious, do dog biscuits in the shape of a bone taste better than if they were another shape?

Sweet dreams Teresa and Missy Cowheartheart

Hey Sally πŸ’ž

You are so, so kind 😍

I have to agree Eurydice attracts the most loving people and brings out the best from anybody who come to her πŸ’˜

This is because she simply adores being amongst good hearted people, she loves to create bonds and she is also very, very well humoured and playful 😝

Eurydice has always enjoyed life to the full since she was brought to the light by Marcos that blessed day 1st June 2011, mr darling baby girl πŸ’•

I am ever so thankful to have her πŸ’– and share my life with her.

It is quite curious my previous precious Dane Kinky has exactly the same personality as Eurydice, only difference was she was Blue and not Arlequin.Β 

May we share many, many, many more experiences together and keep meeting wonderful people on our path.Β 

Sending you a zillion kisses and cuddles to your cuties πŸ˜˜πŸ˜˜πŸ˜˜πŸ˜˜πŸ’žπŸΎπŸΆ

Hey Eli, Mona and Kerren 🐱🐱😊

Yup, you bet πŸ‘πŸΌ I much prefer bone shaped biscuits especially if they are chocolate flavoured 😜😜😜

Having said that, Mom doesn't let me have any chocolate πŸ˜• but she did give me a minuscule taster of a chocolate biscuit at Sandrine so I loved Mom even more πŸΉπŸ’˜

Sending you lots and lots of licks πŸ‘…πŸ‘…πŸ‘…πŸ‘… and cuddles to your Mom πŸ’žπŸ’ž
