Hi and welcome to COL. We have Buddy, a blue roan, nearly 15 months old.
Where in Dublin are you? We used to live in South County Dublin (Dalkey - posh, huh?) and then Bray, Co Wicklow. Just moved back to UK 18 months ago. Still miss our friends etc. Almost brave enough to plan a visit this summer, but having trouble finding a dog-friendly house/flat/B&B near there.
