Hello

Welcome to the site, do you have dogs. I have an Irish Collie Cross, He is a brainy one and very lively. Dogs seem to help our moods and Pax keeps me sane is a nice way.

I had a black lab/collie mix and he lived until he was 17. He passed away 2 months ago, he was my best friend and i got him when i was 2. But i bought a golden retriever puppy and shes helping me:)

They are a miss when they go, we had a Jack Russel X and if He had the chance would sit on my knee all day

I was a voluntary worker and I used to be in their Information Centre. Pip would sit on my knee all day and people would come in just to see the dog.

I was with Mental Health and the dog broke the ice with the depressed, people who was after information
