Hi Brigitte, thankyou for such a kind and indepth respose here. I have been reliably informed that "Charlie" is now safe at home warm and well fed. :-) His owner is delighted with the impromptue pic which I happily donated to her for her troubles.
Omg, I don't know weather I'm sad or delighted by this image... or maybe both! :-) Such a cute little puppy and I love the way you displayed him on a pedastal, befitting a king, albeit a little king. Those eyes and that little bent tail are pulling at my heart strings. You've got a winner here, Phil!! Great catch! I hope he was not lost in the streets at such a young age, and if he was, I hope he has been reunited with his family... gosh, those eyes are still working on me! hehe 7+++++++++++
