On a dark and rainy night a few years back the door bell rang and a perfectly normal looking bloke apologised for disturbing us. He asked had we ever considered sponsoring a guide dog. If we were at all interested (and if this was a bad time) he would happily call back at a time that suited us – he said he only needed 20 minutes.
A cup of tea and almost exactly 20 minutes later we were the proud sponsors of Garth the guide dog
This distinguished mutt has graduated early, grown into a handsome fellow and I can see our hard earned donations have not gone to waste. He will spend Christmas with Brian his new owner and alas our work is done for Garth.
I think he would suit a pair of dog antlers !!
