Louise & Mr Light Blue, now Brew, already had their hearts set on him remaining here, early on. We had formed a stong bond with one another, which is continuing to grow stronger.

Mirabelle is all girl & Maximus is a stocky boy who;'s earned the nickname"little tank".They are half siblings through our handsome Spencer & are having a ball with one another in their Newport estate. We were having trouble deciding who to keep here bet Brew & Maximus, so the Plowright's were kind enough to allow us to co-own Maximus & add him to our potential stud dogs if he pans out.
We visited them at their home last week with Spencer & Brew & were quite pleased with how he was looking. The 2 half siblings are a month and a half apart in age and are constant companions for one another.
We are enjoying watching them grow up together.
