She is called Whitey but her name is a misnomer.
She may be pure white only after a wash but for the rest of the time I think Muddy, Sandy, Grimy or Brownie would be more appropriate! She loves to sleep in the mud, especially in summer after the garden has been watered! She lives in the St.Mary's Church, Pune campus and guards it with her life!
She recognises the car that brings
her food but is most polite. No jumping or barking if you please. Just a
circular tail wag and a sideways run to the bench.
She will wait for it patiently on the wooden park bench that doubles up as her resting place in the evenings! She knows she is not allowed into the church and is happy to wait for people to approach her, bounding to them if she is called!
She is nothing but joy and love. Her smile is enough to keep anyone going, if only they cared to look!
