The Company of Dogs hasn't added a story.
If you ever met and admired super-wise and wonderful Hattie and Rosa, or wondered at the bond between wo/man and dog, or got a bit tearful during the Doggy Heroes competition at Crufts, or even heard my story of rescuing Rafa ... LISTEN UP!
I aim to raise £2,000 for The Company of Dogs by completing my first ever sprint triathlon in memory of Hattie and Rosa on Sunday, 29 June 2014. The COD does wonderful work in re-homing Spanish strays in Jersey, who would otherwise be put down or starve to death. Hattie and Rosa brought a huge amount of joy to all who met them. The best tribute I can make or thanks I can give, is to do the things they used to enjoy (running and swimming and, I'm sure, cycling if they'd had longer legs ...) and so raise funds to save the lives of other dogs, and give them a fresh start in Jersey and spread the joy to their new owners. As I prefer driving to running, cycling or swimming (let alone all three in a row), and am a bit old for this sort of activity really, this is the hardest challenge I could have set myself. So if the dog thing doesn't do it, at least make a donation by way of sympathy for an old lady's knees.
Please help me reach my target? I'm aiming for £2,000, which would save the lives of about 5 dogs.
