D is for Delightful dogs


Another animal one I’m afraid.  When we were originally only coming over here for one year we were planning to be leaving our 2 dogs behind in Australia in the care of others.  Upon deciding to stay longer we opted to bring them over to join us.  An expensive undertaking of about $4000, but one we didn’t ever consider not choosing to do.  As a result we have been able to enjoy our days off with walks around the countryside and runs along the beautiful Raglan beaches with Renner and Flinders in tow.  It has been great having this part of our ‘family’ life continued in our adopted country and they have loved it too.  Being a water loving dog, Renner has relished in all of the streams and puddles that the wetter climate over here produces.  Being surrounded by farmland and livestock has kept Flinders busy watching and trying to ‘round up’ all the neighbouring cows. Delight in the simple pleasures is what D represents for me.
