Good day to you, Bruce.
A perfect photograph and a lovely story.
I met my wife, also English, in Mexico in 2007. Jean was living near Hermosillo. (Long story..) I left England in 2008 and went to live with Jean. Jean was almost full-time rescuing dogs from Mexican streets, looking after them for a while, and then finding homes for them, mainly in Arizona.
Jean had plenty of dogs at home, roughly 20, and I brought my German Shepherd with me from Devon. UK. There was so much to learn from these dogs so in 2009 I wrote a book called Learning from Dogs and then started a blog under the same name. We came north in 2010 with 15 dogs, much to the amazement of the US Border official, and Jean and I were married in Payson, Az later that year.
Long way of asking if I may republish your photograph and story on my blog!
Good day to you, Bruce. br br A perfect photograp... (

Truly an inspiring story.
Here is a photo of Lucy. She was a Border Collie Australian Cattle Shepherd mix. She was a wonderful Service Dog who would love to go to Nursing Homes and Hospices. She would like for give people the affection they needed. We adopted her from Mustard Sandwich 15 years ago. She passed away and is waiting for us in Heaven.
Eight years we adopted Bentley from North Shore Animal Rescue. We saw this tiny white albino Labrador. Knowing that albinos have a harder time in the sun than most dogs we took him in. About a month later there was some black spots on his belly. We took him back to the vet only to learn he was a Lab Dalmatian mix. Now eight years later he is all white on his back with black spots on his belly.
