Farewell Patch

Uploaded: May 27, 2008

Description

This is Patch, he was 16yo & he passed away today, he belonged to my brother, John. Patch was a nasty little bloke when he thought he should be, he would bite any of us given the opportunity but we still all thought the world of him. He will be missed by many. Lens aperture F/3.2, shutter speed 1/388sec, focal length 19m.

Chris,
I am so sorry to hear of Patch's passing. Somehow, the more challenging dogs become even more special. What a wonderful picture you have to remember Patch by.

John & Avril, thanks for your kind thoughts. John is so upset, his family have bought him 2 new pups, I haven't seen them yet, I think he's going to surprise me with them. #6019990

Wonderful capture, and my condolences for the loss of your fur nephew - he's a beauty, and it sounds like you have lots of happy memories : ) Looking forward to seeing the new pups! -mm #6049748
