Ginny - our sixth
contribution
(by Derek
Swift)
Ginny weighed twenty one pounds when we got her.
She had sores on her hips and shoulders from where she had been lying on
the concrete floor of an outside passageway.
She was infested with worms and had lost most of her fur. She was very
intelligent and watched Ricky our Alsatian to see what to do whenever a new situation
arose.
Because of her lack of fur, she would always want to wear a coat and hat
to go out walking unless the weather was fine. When Ricky became old she
would guard him from the unwelcome attentions of other dogs. She eventually succumbed to cancer but at least her last years were good
for her.
