Seems they know Marja has something with butterflies the trail was called M1 and was marked with these signs.......

Here We saw 5 Deers running it took my breath away so beautiful,didn't go and chased them,Good Boy.....

At the promenade along the Mosel there were some scary things...

Hee Swan,I'm not a ugly duck.....I'm Beau that means "Beautiful"haha..

No Friend of mine,He was after the cookies in the bag of Ruud....

Look a prison where they leave the gate open...

Bad news look at the sign you can't drink the water...well for me anyway because R&M rather drink wine,they call water ...Duckbeer.....

This are Toddick,Josephine and their Pawrents as you can see Toddick is in charge....I respect Him a lot.

Thinks he's a bit jealous because his Boss loves me to.....

Happy Valentine

I talk to him when I´m lonesome like,

and I´m sure he understands.

When he looks at me so attentively,

and gently licks my hand.

Then he rubs his nose on my tailored clothes,

but I never say naught thereat.

For the good Lord knows I can buy more clothes,

but never a Friend like that.

to Bangkok but also very glad she's back.

Ruud and I picked her up at Schipholairport yesterdaymorning jumped like a fool was so terribly Happy to see her again, all the people laughed and caressed me but I had only had eyes for her.

Had a busy day had to keep a eye on her allday long,making sure she doesn't go away again even though if it's with sweety Marianne just miss her to much.

Marja told me today she has a surprise for Ruud and Me were going for a doggyhike weekend soon,jippie.

It was love at first sight when we saw her and are so very glad we have a Boy of her.

It's our dream to have a second Rhodesian Ridgeback one day when our Beaudor is up to it.

That will be a challenge to find a Mother as sweet and beautiful like her.

Ijaba whe wish you and your pack many,many more years in health and happiness,see you soon and many kisses from your Beaudor.......

We did it!!!

2010-06-09T16:46:00.008+02:00

But we Rhodesian Ridgeback love to have our pack together.

Ruud missed me to I was even allowed at the table for the first time hihi.

But this morning I'm sad again,Nick just left with Sousja to this dreamvillage of ours.

Marja has tears in her eyes,lucky for her I stayed at home otherwise she would be so alone.

A proud Mom with her Son .....

But litlle boys get big and unfold their wings......

Hope the 2 lovebirds have this kind of sunset at the terrace in France.

On this picture the electricitie spoil the view,but we have news they will be put underground within 4 weeks,at least that is what they say now.

Esra has passed her examen

2010-04-18T10:13:00.006+02:00

When at 26 february 2008 we had to let our very special Max go over the rainbowbridge we didn't want another dog.

After 6 months of lots of tears and pain we missed having a dog so much and decided to start looking for a Rhodesian Ridgeback.

We were the luckiest people on earth when at the 1st of december our precious Prince Beaudor was born ,and thats why we wanted to make someone with a handicap just as happy.

So we adopted Esra she was first socialized and lived with a family,then after some months she went to school and was trained to help blind people.

Now we are very proud at her she has passed her examen and someone will be very happy just like we are every minute with our Beaudor.

Esra well done a big hug and lots of cookies from us,you are a Special Girl.
