"Well, that's decided" said my angel with the kind voice. "It looks as though
we've just gained a family member." They decided that depending on whether

I was a really young dog or a really old dog, they would either call me Kentucky

Mum. "Kentucky it is!" After having all my medical needs attended to, I was
taken home where a hot meal, and a warm bed and blanket awaited me. I felt

that I had arrived in heaven and I thanked Santa Paws profusely for making
my family dream come true.
