Oscar was a mixed breed with some traits of a pointer, with black spots on his body and black patches on his face. Every day was an adventure with him. If he was not busy chasing sparrows and crows, he would be playing with a ball, or pulling away at old rags and socks. He loved eating and was a big fan of curd rice, much to my mum’s delight.
Then one day, when he was around 14 years old, he suddenly fell sick with jaundice. We were all saddened and scared! My mum rushed him to the vet’s, and my driver and who were terrified of him lifted him ever so gently and placed him on my mum’s lap. The moment they placed him on the vet’s table, he gave my mum a soulful, thankful look before he died. He was buried in our garden facing my mum’s window. After that, she never had the heart to keep a pet.
A Dog is just an animal to some people but to me it’s more than just an animal. It’s a true friend giving unconditional Love .
