Candes Saint-Martin, my favourite spot in La Touraine.

It's a dog's life!

I wonder which of these two dogs has the toughest life ...


This weathered specimen which for the last five hundred years has been guarding the entrance to the Logis Royal in Loches?

OR


This Paris Hilton's pet look-alike,
which we saw carried around Amboise by its master?
I suppose his legs were too short to climb all those 'awful' steps in Amboise castle.

The French love their little dogs, don't they? I don't think Lulu would like to be carried in my handbag. Mind you, I'd need a very large one !!!!

Jean, Judging from the photos I've seen, you'd need a soldier's kitbag to carry Lulu around! :)
