Now, after my dad's passing, we've left the day-to-day care of my mom to these three kiddos, and they are truly the life of my mom's household. I just wish more people would adopt dogs off the street in INdia-esp since these dogs are sturdier and are basically of Whippet lineage, making them very pedigreed and elite in their way. All I hear from friends and family in India is that they need pure-bred pedigreed dogs-nothing less will do. It really is such a shame. BTW the mom, Kalli's, also gave birth to three girls (Barry's sisters) who we had to send away to an animal rescue place (Rahat, in Dehradun). In case you're interested, they're still up for adoption (and are called Basel, Blake and Bianca) (Basel Blake was the movie star murder suspect in Agatha Christie's The Body In the Library :-D).

I've become an aunt to a canine, George, earlier this year, and though we live in different countries, I try to Skype with my sis as often as I can to get a look at George. Pups/dogs/pets can so easily become central to one's life particularly if you're not raising a family and live by yourself. But having read your heart-rending posts since Foxie's demise, I worry about losing my own canine nephew and how overwhelming the grief could be. I wish the "real" world would lend more respect and importance to such intense bonding between humans and pets as they do between humans. Ever thought of a new pup?
