Prodigal Dog


Leo was raised by Marian till he was old enough. He was given away after an year, since Marian's health was failing. Couple of years later, he returned to SMTA campus, where he had spent his adult life. His mother was Goldie- a street dog and father was a Brindle (brown with black markings)- another street dog! So, Leo was quite ugly: strange brown red coat with black stripes and a funny face, like that of a jackal!

And his ugliness makes him all the more lovable..
But right now, he is battling with a bad wound on his head, with maggots. Dr Joshi, the government vet, has seen him and advised a set of injections - given by Sachin. Prognosis is reserved but we are hopeful. Dhaneshwari is giving him regular meals and turmeric powder with milk. Wherever Marian is, she too is praying for him, I am sure..
