Meckie sometimes appeared on this blog (meckie, meckie), mainly when we considered to buy another car to replace hte red 33. Meckie drove us to a Alfa 156 Sportwagon, but finally it became an Alfa 146. So we had to help Meckie in the car when we took here to out for a good walk in the wild, it went worse the last few months. Now she lies in our back garden, may she rest in peace.
Dogs can tie you at home. But with a proper training they can be taken everywhere. Meckie came to us when she was 1,5 year, we didn't train her enough on this point. Now we're looking for a new dog. We can't miss the daily exercise and the pleasant company at home.
Many people drive vans, to transport their dog or their pack of dogs. No van for us, or it will be a campervan. But for the time being our 146 and our Blue Lord will suffice.
Two picures of our last good walk (swim!) with Meckie on the shores of the river Meuse in Venlo.
