Hi Christine Your grandson sounds so lovely you are truly blessed in having him. They grow up so quickly now a days only seems like yesterday I was picking my youngest up from school. Hes 19 this year and 6ft4 tall. Im a little shrimp at 5ft 3 my husband is over 6ft my eldest is under 6ft.I think boys can sometimes be affectionate mine were the youngest is still now sometimes. I can just imagine what it was like with the 3 girls bet it was fun though, at least you could mother daughter stuff with them.Your poor hubby was out numbered by females bless him. Im out numbered by males. I did wonder about having a female dog just to even things up a bitI would love to see a picture of the portrait when its done. At least he will be with you all the time then. Big milestone in his life next year when he starts school. Enjoy him spoil him all you can while you can they just grow up so fast now adays. before you know it their at school then uni. My mom had 7 grandchildren quiet a few great granchildren. she would get up set that she didnt see them a part from my 2. I dont see my granddaughter whos 13 this year. cherish each moment second you have with him.Have a lovely day christine keep warm  gentle hugs x

Thanks Kaz, I will definitely sent you a pic of the portrait..my poor hubby had a remake dog too...his choice he recons the butchers are so much more loyal and don't run off...I wouldn't have a clue..that's his do aune..I know nothing about digs..we used to have female Dobermans..then when we moved here to Tasmania we bought Jack Russell pups..we've had 3 in 22 years..the Dobermans don't do too well in the Tassie winter-colder weather, the one we brought with us ended up riddled with arthritis..but, little jack Russells are gorgeous, better smaller dogs now we're older..Just got home from our anniversary dinner..it was really nice too..it's nearly 8pm and a movie is coming on Neflix...have a lovely day KazKaz, be blessed even more,:-) xx
