Joe

[NannyFerret]

Joe was dumped in a banana box in a field in France. He was only a few weeks old when he was found and taken to a rescue.

My nephews old dog had died when the family decided to adopt another dog. They ended up with two and the other dog in the pen would have been left behind, but my nephew rang my brother and asked if if he would like him the bring him home for a companion for him. 

My brother had lost his long time partner to MND and he had also been very poorly, but Joe has contantly been by his side faithfully watching over him.
My brother came to visit me and stayed for 10 days which gave me plenty of time to get to know Joe and also get a few pics of him.
As far as my brother knows, Joe is mainly Gordon Setter and has the most beautiful nature ever.

My brothers life has changed since he adopted Joe as he was rattling around in a big house on his own and Joe has been brought up to understand French and English..
How could anyone resist this brautiful boy.

...and he's not daft either.  He clearly knows the best place to relax.  A lovely dog nicely captured.  Makes me miss our companion of 16 years.

Thanks everyone.

He is three years old and so good. I'm glad I had the chance to meet him as my brother probably won't be able to do the journey by car and ferry again.
