Nino is a Bull Terrier. Rillette is a Guinea Goose. At first, you wouldn’t think they’d have anything in common, and the chances of them becoming friends would be slim. But at a lovely farmhouse found in Provence along the south of France, a beautiful friendship was born.

Nino the Bull Terrier was born in October 2017 and grew up with a love for all animals. Rillette the Guinea Goose joined the family in May 2020 and immediately took a liking to Nino. And the pair have been inseparable since!
Nino and Rillete enjoy their days playing and teasing each other at home.
