I bemoan the tyranny of age. On 23/6/2010 my darling dog passed away at the age of 17 years. Winklewood Irish Affair AKA Snuffy was a beautiful, little boy with the most affectionate countenance which he maintained whilst ailing right through to the end. He had a fabulous life and was truly loved. I miss him. This is a pictorial celebration of his life.
This is him in 1993 the year he was born as a wee, baby poodle. Look I am wearing leggings and Dr Martens, it must be the 90s!
Snuffy really liked punk rock and here he is donning his SIC t-shirt.
Here I am with Snuffy frolicking on the beach in a very 90s grunge sort of way.
This is his sire Winklewood Baileys Irish Cream. Really. He was a Royal Melbourne Show Champion. Is he not magnificent?
Snuffy looking all grown up, freshly groomed replete with red hair bows.
Snuffy was so handsome in his prime. He was show quality don’t you know!
He hated my horse. There was a degree of jealousy involved. Horse looks singularly unimpressed.
Here he is with his ‘wife’ Coco and their offspring. The black puppy is Holly who we kept and she is still kicking at age 15. Holly is awesome.
This is Snuffy with Holly on a couch that no longer belongs to me. It was fucking uncomfortable anyway. 
This is Snuffy and Holly being cute on my bed.
What a gorgeous pair of poodles. That is all.
Snuffy as an old boy.
Like all oldies he liked to have many disco naps.
Looking very metal with this hair style.
Here having a nap with his daughter Holly and best chum Sooty.
Still napping……
17 is old for a dog but not long enough in my time. I wanted Snuffy to live forever. R.I.P. Snuffy.
Awww Snuffy!!! Adorable!!! RIP
I insist on meeting Sooty !!!!
xoxox
Thanks Ash, that little poodle meant the world to me. As for the Sootser, you can come meet her any time but whether she will meet you is another thing altogether! She is slightly odd.
Just beautiful, thanks for sharing snuffys life with us such a trip down memory lane. Love you snuff, you will be missed forever. xxoo
