My puppy. She was so cute... waited for me at sunset by the beach gate to play and in the mornings to come with me on picture walks... She liked playing so much that I ended up with a scratch in my hand and a couple of rabies vaccinations!

Michael and his dog, Jimmy. We used to walk on the beach or to the village, looking for nice pictures. Jimmy also used to come in the mornings with me and my puppy for a walk...
