And there's not a day when my dogs don't make me smile.<br /><br />I do love the eyebrow business. One of my previous wolfhounds, Conall, was the master of expression emotion via his eyebrows (yes, he had nice facial furnishings. Fearghus is rather light on as regards whiskers). But Conall - ah, a twitch of one eyebrow, the raising or lowering of both - that could say volumes!Erikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08181307209370955942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365244084462704027.post-57944556535497843342011-06-29T23:09:57.567+01:002011-06-29T23:09:57.567+01:00Today, as my son Sam was moving house, I agreed to...Today, as my son Sam was moving house, I agreed to look after the dog.

It's something about stroking them.

They are members of the family. I posted a pic of my Scot today just because I miss him and he should be here, but as GW is ill I can't go and get him in Brussels.

Actually, she does not. She is a very enthusiastic dog, and so I think could not stop at one eyebrow, so it is always two. <br /><br />Oh Lou - that is such a very sweet thing to say. And the funny thing is that I was not a dog lover at all, until I got the Duchess and the Pigeon. So maybe they are a little bit magic.Tania Kindersleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18355967725006605825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365244084462704027.post-63182300377604750572011-06-29T19:10:58.944+01:002011-06-29T19:10:58.944+01:00I was walking today and a black lab bounded toward...I was walking today and a black lab bounded towards me...I got a little 'hit' of the Pidge from it - made me smile.
