Faithful Friends

Here is a rare shot of our two Staffies together. They don't often pose for me together like this. It's a pity they didn't choose a better background!

These two dogs are going to be 15 later this year. They are brother and sister from the same litter. The only time they were ever separated was for one night when the female got lost in the bush in Hluhluwe in 2005. We were afraid we'd lost her to a snake or something. She was away two nights and on the second morning I opened the door and there was our precious Maggie looking exhausted and very sore lying on the verandah. I have often wished she could tell us of her adventures during that time. Anyway, they're fairly healthy, very deaf and we suspect their sight isn't that great. But they give us lots of amusement.
