My dogs and me.























Last but not least, here is Maya.

She is a cross between a Labrador and a Bernese Mountain Dog.

We bought her at a regular farm for $50.00! She was the runt of the litter, and that's what made us take her.

A little before her adoption, my sister had given us a kitten who had tried really, really hard to befriend our old cat, without ever succeeding. So, when we arrived with this puppy, who at that point was the same size has he was, it was such a celebration! They started to play right away, and they did so until their adulthood.

Maya is probably the best dog I ever had; she's smart, she obeys and she loves kids.


Then there was Zoé with her beautiful brindle patterned robe. I adopted her at the SPCA. She was a very loving dog, but very nervous, scared of everything, and a glutton!
She died at eleven.

This was Albert, a great dog that was given to me as a baby when I was 25. He died at the age of sixteen.
Here is a photo of this serious and courageous (he would climb ladders amongst other things) dog that I always liked very much.
