A Bloody Paraplegic
Puppy Dogs and People (1)

I have always had a dog or two in my life. At one stage we had three and I miss that living at the Quadriplegic Centre.

Tex was a great boys dog who dropped in one day and stayed when I was around 13. He would go everywhere with me and at that time Dogs were allowed everywhere. He even came to School when I rode my push bike then return home and come back again when school was out. Given that that was about a hours ride it was kind of special. Somehow he knew not to come to the school when I took the Bus.

All of our Dogs have loved riding in cars and Tex was no exception.

We got Little Toot because the owner had to leave the state and couldn't take him with her and then came Mandy.

Mandy was a Old English cross sheepdog with long white hair that Dad found tied to a post and apparently abandoned in the City. We had to give Mandy to friend up the road because Little Toot wouldn't stop annoying her.

Tex was a real boys dog.	C'mon throw the ball!!
