Ilde is a chocolate Labrador who has been part of Linus’ family for six years. She arrived shortly after Bruna, the first dog who died at just ten months after being hit by a car in front of the house. Ilde is a “lady” who comes from the province of Cremona, a “gourmet” that the director of Radio Deejay can’t resist: “I always pass her something under the table while we eat, and if we go for a walk I always have biscuits in your pocket,” he says. He is a calm, serene, very good dog. “Life has changed for the better, it is an element that unites. I’ve lived in the same house for 30 years and didn’t know anyone until we had our first dog. Today I know everyone” adds Linus who also launches an appeal to those who do not have a pet: “You are losing a beautiful part of life, make sure you have one by your side. They give affection, dedication and loyalty that only dogs can give you. It’s part of their nature. And give back everything good they give you”.Interview by Daniela Lanni
