Perhaps 3 months old, very thin. Raja and his mother play with him
quite a bit, but very roughly. The other night I went out, the three
were playing on the road. A motorcycle with 2 men came round the
corner. The three were in the middle of the road. This new pup was
confused and fell down. The motorcycled had slowed but not stopped.
The front tyre went right over the pup. It crossed him!! Then the
motorbike fell with both the riders and the pup got up and sprinted
off !
I was surprised he had managed to run after being run over by the
front tyre of the mobike. I looked for him behind the cars and in the
ditches but could not find him. Finally i assumed he may have gone
into some house. I came in praying to You, Lord to save him. Then as i
was turning in, heavy rains came. I figured he would just get drowned
in the rain on our street. Better that, than to slowly die all night
in pain. I prayed to you, Lord.
In the morning, I went to feed Raja and Mother. There was the pup, on
the sand dune, sitting quite happily as though nothing had happened,
his ears fluttering, him shaking flies off. He is obviously interested
in getting some of the bread and milk i give Raja and his mother. But
he can't figure out how to get his head in when both are eating. Poor
hungry chap. So i give him some biscuits. I really must find a way to
give him more. When i take stuff for him, he's never there. Then
there's the small black and white pup (maybe 5-6 months old) from the
forest-park who comes in sometimes. My two have not yet warmed up to
him. Lots of growling when he comes. Perhaps he's been pushed out of
that park, or he gets lost.
I can't thank you enough Lord, for the love, for this wonderful gift.
Raja is the most beautiful thing i have known in this life. Seeing
him, touching him, feeding him, hearing him is the most beautiful
thing ever.... Love and caring is what you created this universe for.
