A friend's bitch had her puppies which started me thinking(dangerous I know) on how far back ago I had delivered my first litter of Papillons....23 years I counted....jings that is scary lol!! I had served my 'apprenticeship' with a lovely lady who bred and showed rough collies which were my first love thanks to working voluntarily in an animal home,but that is another story. Many a happy day was spent socialising and training the puppies and grooming the adults. Above is one of my favourite photographs of the gang back in the 80's, all off course now in Rainbow Bridge.
