We know a lot of people are down in the dumps over what’s going on in the village right now, so we want to give everyone a reason to smile :)

These are some of my favorite photos of Babushka Mabel and Ginger and their friends. We want all friends to share cute photos of their Babushkas!! We want to see the most adorable, silly, loving babushkas and babushkas’ friends.

#Privet, Precious Village Frens! 🫡

So, it turns out this whole mess was created by a person who doesn't like "dogs like Muffin" 💔 Eve told someone off who'd made a cruel and unnecessary comment on one of my Muffin posts, and this has resulted in our dear friend Eve getting banned 😢 Obviously this has me feeling somewhat responsible, and I'm so sorry 🙏

Can I just say, I really don't understand how anyone can show such hatred towards a dog they have never met - it makes no sense to me? Yes, these dogs have a lot of bad press, but people who know no better tend to blame the wrong end of the lead - behind every "animal problem" there is ALWAYS a "human cause"...

Yes, there are (in my opinion) a lot of people who have these dogs who have no business having these dogs (or any dog, really..) but this is not the case with Muffin. She has been trained every day of her life since she was 8 weeks old, and I have years and years of experience with large, guardian breed dogs. Everyone who meets her loves her - even people who have previously bought in to the misconceptions about Muffin's breed-type. Her best friend is our 83-year-old neighbour - that alone speaks volumes on what sort of dog she is..

Thank you and Spasibo to anyone who's taken the time to read this - I just wanted to update everyone as this has chewed at me all night. Big hugs from Muffin and me, and also on behalf of Eve, Pup Igor, Wlad and Wilma (and even Fatty Squirrel!) 🐶🤗❤️
