Marmaduke
Nobody had the foggiest idea where he came from. One morning he was just there to greet us when we stepped out for going to school. You just couldn’t miss him. He was a big dirty looking fellow. Not that one could hold it against him completely. Apart from the fact that he always appeared […]
You win some, you lose…
It would be so nice if all stories had happy endings. Unfortunately they don’t. Real life is quite different from reel life. Every once in a while one is shaken up to drive home the fact that we are not God. We can try our best but that is all that we an do. We […]
The longest day

Bingo
No, it was not always like this! I think we began as a fairly ‘normal’ family. For a good number of years we were a family with just two dogs. That’s quite sane isn’t it? Bozo was a handsome specimen of a dog and though Bingo was the first rescued animal of our family, he […]
