Here is a photo from 2011 of me, my wife Nadine, with
our almost brand-new dog, Jag. He is a Tibetan Spaniel whom we adopted
from a Sunshine Coast animal shelter in September 2011. Also Jag with his favourite balls, in 2012.
Earlier in 2011, our twin bassets, Bailey
and Finlay passed
away at age 13. Although they were from the same litter
(born September 1997), we only adopted Finlay in August 2002, and
Bailey some two years later. Here is a family photo from 2005.
Before Finlay, we had adopted another basset, Jemima, in October 1998 when she was about 8 years old. Here is a photo
of Finlay and Jemima in the park, and here
are the four of us in our back yard. Jemima died in May 2004. Here is
our Farewell
to Jemima.
Before Jemima, our first dog was a beagle, Seren (Welsh for
"Star").
We got her as a puppy in March 1997. Here is a formal family
photo of us and Seren and Jemima taken by About
Pets Photography
in 1999. Here is a (poorer quality) action
shot of them having a game in our local park. To our great
sadness,
Seren died on the 5th November 2001. Here
is a page about her written in the days following.
