Beichon Frise dogs

If you leave an empty cup of tomato soup in the car - don't leave the dogs in the car at the same time.
This is Tara my Beichon Frise who is just over a year old. Tara is a lovely wee pet and I call her Tara the Terror because she gets into everything. She is very friendly but has taken to going to the park and barking at BIG dogs. Her Mother Molly now joins in and it's very annonying as they chase after the big dogs who just look at them and walk on. Beichon's are child friendly and love humans. They are called companion dogs, because they are companions to humans.

My friend Sara Jane bought me Molly and I've had her for about 4 years now. She likes to lie on the top of the couch and look out the window, or lies beside me on the couch. I decided that Tara would be a good comanion for Molly, and that they could stay together more in the house, however I've ended up taking both of them out with me most places I go - well wouldn't you?

Encaustic Art

Encaustic Art.   This is a picture I made of an angel looking towards the hills and water.   The sky hills and water are made with smooth actions when the wax is placed on the hot iron whereas the wings and gown are made by building up the wax and scoring through with a sharp instrument and reapeating this action over and over again.   Very therapeutic and satisfying hobby.    Workshops are available at
