I found out by accident the other day, Spice's son (and Sophie's litter brother) "Cooper" - Holmbrook Deniel Andrev - has a full page photo and comments in a book called "Wine Dogs New Zealand". His photo also appears on the back cover.
The book itself is part of a series of publications of worldwide "wine dogs" titles - so I had a look on the website www.winedogs.com. Sure enough there are books of wine dogs for countries all over the world.
"Cooper" and his owners live on a vineyard in Marlborough (top of the South Island).

Spice, herself a "pin up" girl had her photo included in the book "101 Adorable Breeds of Dogs" published last year.

They sure do - and if I won Lotto, I would buy a vineyard !

The book is really neat 'cos it pictures all sorts of breeds (and cross breeds) of dogs and tells you about their quirky likes and dislikes.
My friend who showed me the book, was given it for christmas - because it has pictures of Border collies in it - and she is a Border Collie owner/breeder.
