      My heart goes out to you. I know that feeling too well. We have adopted many fur babies over the years. When one is lost, we adopt another one...not to replace but so that the life of the one gone, is not in vain but served to make room for another baby to fill the dog-shaped hole in everyone's heart. God Bless.

    Aw. This makes me sad. You said she lives in absolute luxury when she's with her Mom. That's good because all dogs and cats (I have 3) should be pampered. Thank you for bringing us such gorgeous pictures of your countryside. I'm in the US and I'm jealous. I can see in your videos that you do appreciate where you live. Thank you for sharing it with us.

    I just love watching Finn and the love you have for each other. We’ve just lost our older black lab that I adored as much as you do Finn. Fortunately we have two younger labs to ease our pain. Forest of Bowland is lovely, not too far from us. Enjoyed this video.

    I love walking around the Forest of Bowland - my stomping ground. There’s a great circular walk from where you camped heading towards Langdon Castle - not a castle but a shooting hut (not very exciting) & the walk has some lovely moorland views.

    Ya know, BC, I almost didn't watch this one bcuz the title had me very concerned that something had happened to Phinn. I was very glad that I did, and found out she was just going to see her Mum. 😊 She is such a sweet dog, and yes, I miss her when she isn't in your videos. I think that's wonderful that you have remained friends with your former spouse, and that you both have your own special time with Phinn.💚

Thank you for sharing & making us a part of your experience & showing off that gorgeous lil fur baby & letting her still live with both of you, the kids should never suffer because of a break up & just because she's got 4 legs instead of 2 doesn't mean she's any less a member of the family!!
