[pyrnet] CHAT: Pyrs, Wolfhounds and Children

["Stephanie R. Whitney" <srwhitney1@juno.com>]

My best friend came unexpectedly today with her four year old
granddaughter.  Of course, the house was a total disaster due to a
combination of construction being done to get it ready to sell and mud
outside which the dogs had just tracked in all over the white tile
kitchen floor.

Ciaran and Anais never see small children other than once in a while at a
dog show or some town event.  Typical of their breeds, they were so
gentle with this little girl.  She hugged them, crawled underneath
Ciaran's belly, sat on his paws, used Anais for a pillow and fed them way
too many dog biscuits and they were ever so gentle with her, never
seeming the least bit short of patience with her antics.  You really have
to admire these guys when you see the way they are with little children.

Of course, the camera was low on batteries, but I managed to get a couple
of cute pictures.
