What a beautiful dog! I have two of my own and love them so. Thank you for sharing that wonderful story. What a lucky family! Arthur will now get the attention he deserves.
I thought they were a bit mean to him - making him swim, look for his own food etc. They only helped him if he couldn't manage. He got injured and exhausted trying to keep up with them. Yes he has a new home and he will ultimately be better off but I thought they could have made things so much easier for the poor dog and choose not to. Still happy ending I guess.
If you want to watch a touching but sad story of a dog and his owner, check out the film Hachi with Richard Gere. It was made five or six years ago. It is based on a true story in Japan. You will need a lot of tissues.
Okay, I did need the tissues-such a heartugging story.It's great Arthur has a new loving home with his trek buddy.So good to see that his loyalty and persistance was rewarded with kindness. He reminds me of our recently lost sixteen year old wolfhound collie cross-a real canine athlete. Thanks for sharing the lovely story.Regards, Destemona
Hello. I started this blog as a way to document my life after after taking a drop in income, and after retirement living on a pension. The purpose was to pass on any money saving tips which might help others. Fast forward 14 years, and life has taken me in different directions. Money saving tips have morphed into a new message. Take control of your own destiny. Be responsible for your own health and well being. Value your freedom and don't let go of it.
