dog-talk

i can't see my dog anywhere on the campus of late. the one with the pink nose who used to shake off his slumber whenever i was anywhere near, honest!
i was so shaken to see this other black and white dog, a regular on our side of the campus, suffering from a horrible skin infection of sorts...i am afraid i don't know too much about the veterinary sciences, but something ought to be done. yesterday it was trying to lie down on its side, but flies kept buzzing around the site of infection and the poor thing was almost out of its mind in agony!
i remember when i was 7 years old i had a best friend in my neighbour's dog, sherpa...i loved how he used to almost eagerly await our evening saunters on the mayfair road terrace, how he used to jump all over me and how intelligent he was. incidentally, he was a spitz.
