Yes, both dogs sure had a good life and were loved to bits.
I enjoyed hunting for Belle pics to make this. It must have been one of Gackt's distinguishing features when he was setting up his early solo career that the dog so often came too!
Gackt's face is always an open book when he's touching animals (e.g. the cremello horse that gets its nose sunburnt for Fuurin Kazan) and I looked at him in the biggest photo here,"talking" to Belle with things other than words (facial movements, eye contact, smell). It occurred to me that it is similar not-talking that tells a pianist's hands what to do when they read, "con moto" or "scherzo" (which means "joke"!) on a piece of sheet music (which is only black dots on a white page, after all - hardly a conversation).
Not sure why I picked such a vivid colour for the base though. Hmm. I suppose it's certainly not a miserable shade!
