My kids are growing up, and I'm still enjoying to take care of them all.

I'm a good father, am I not, sonny ?

The others and I, we taught them a lot of things, and we are their models.

We taught them also to hear what our owner says and asks.

We taught them too to be agile and to be able of doing a lot of different things with their bodies.

Of course we taught them also to be watchful and always ready for action.

With us, they learned a lot of things - and with our owner too, of course.

Unluckily, a great misfortune happened. The mere thought of it still makes me completely depressed.

One day, while we were kept apart, some people came home, and then left. But after that, I noticed that Brehael had disappeared ... I've never seen him again ...

Misfortunes never come singly. Two days after, the same happened again, this time Brinskhi had disappeared ...

I asked my owner about that, expecting she knew more. But what a surprise ! She told me that it was a normal thing, we can't keep all the pups with us, but she got news and even photos of Brehael and Brinskhi, and they have quickly become loving family pets, as they were meant to be. So things are in order, she said.

I was very affected, and a bit angry. We can't keep all my kids with us ... Things are in order ...

It's quite impossible for me to understand that, even now ...

I searched my friend Fango, as a chief he knows a lot of things. I explained what our owner said.

Fango answered that he understood my pain, but also that he thought that it's probably a human rule, and so there was nothing to be done.

It's probably a human rule, because for us, it's rather "the more the merrier" ...

Isn't it a shame to deprive of his own children a loving father like me ?

Am I not a loving father, daddy's little girls ?

Borkye is still with us, because our owner wants to know how his new coat will be.

For Borkye's pup coat was quite different of the others' ones.

But when I see Borkye, I often wonder whether, when his new coat is finished, he'll disappear in the same way than Brehael and Brinskhi ...

I've resigned myself, but I'm sad every time I'm thinking of them ...

I try to forget my pain to take care of my kids who're still with us.

When I'm too sad, thinking of my lost kids, I try to get out of sadness while running at full speed in the whole garden.

Then my kids generally run with me and play with me : nothing is better to make me happy again !

Come along ! Let us run together !

Come on ! Race each other to the first tree !

My kids are so loving ones that they are able to make me forget all kind of sadness !

But I'm still watchful, they still need me to protect them.
