Past and Current Pets

Memories of past pets were coming in dreams and in real time today. A quick list for others. We first saw a Maltese puppy at a friends home in 1974 and became passionate Maltese puppy fans. Since that date we've had Tiny in Frankston then Tiny 2 in Rosebud followed by Penny and Tilly in Moe. Tilly had puppies which was very exciting for us.Penny was one of her puppies that we kept. Tilly and Penny were given to friends at the start of our overseas journeying in 1986. On returning to live in Australia  we purchased our 5th Maltese puppy for our daughter's birthday in1997 when she turned 8. The comment from Lara was "but I wanted a real dog". Puppence who never received any other name is now 15 and very frail. We also have a maltese/silky terrier cross who was also purchased as a love object for our youngest daughter who is still waiting for a 'real dog'. The amazing associations that keep coming when you think of all the great times you had with your favourite pets. It just brings forth all those those warm and cosy feelings. Yes I will post pictures for other maltese lovers too.
