Winston our new pup



We didn’t plan this but ended up rescuing a pup in Wesbank yesterday. Lost, burning with heat and dehydrated he had taken refuge on someone’s cool stoep but was very much unwanted. He was being screamed at and beaten with a broom and was utterly bewildered and traumatised. I was parked nearby fetching something for a wedding and heard the shouting and his pitiful squealing.  We asked around the houses nearby but had no luck so brought him home.  He crawled straight into our hearts and has been named Winston.  He has a lovely disposition and although he has a fat tummy, is malnourished with rickety bones and hair loss. He also has a broken tail.  He slept for hours and gobbled his food and now has made himself entirely at home on Sweetpi’s cushion.
