By Popular Demand: More Prinnie and John!
Prinnie and John really made an impact in our little corner of the doggie Substack world…
You made this Note probably the most-loved one I’ve ever had!
Nearly 9,000 likes, hundreds of restacks, and so many of you asking for more of Prinnie and John. In case you have been hiding under a rock and haven’t seen that Substack note, Prinnie is a tiny poodle who has decided to focus a large portion of her love and delight on a World War II veteran named John. I went looking for the rest of the story. Pardon any inaccuracies, but this is what I found. :)
Prinnie on Instagram: "Prinnie & John, my favourite love story …In Melbourne, Australia, this is how a 7-year-old cream toy poodle named Prinnie and her owner Maddison met John, a veteran who served in the Pacific —by pure chance one morning. Prinnie took one look at the man and decided that her days were not complete without him.
Since then, Prinnie regularly drags Maddison out to meet John. Maddison films some of their time together to post on Prinnie’s own Instagram account so the world can see.
When the first clip landed, it melted hearts everywhere. Now, the ritual is still going strong —same souls, same joy, same unbreakable bond.

It is all really INCREDIBLY CUTE.
So now you know the story and how to follow along if you want to see a bit more. And rumor has it that there might even be a book (written by the owner) about these two in the works… ;)
*A gentle note
