MAY I, through your letters page, say a big thank you to several very kind hearted people. We’re lucky to have such people around who care about animals and about our domestic pets in particular. I am, of course, aware there are numerous others around who don’t care that much about any animal, but let me relate a recent incident.
While working on his land the farmer who lives in the farm below me accidentally severed my underground telephone cable with his excavator, just when I needed a reliable line to contact the vet.
The linesmen involved in getting it repaired were kindness personified and the young chap who lives next door to me not only helped organise getting the repair done, but also drove me and my precious dog many miles to a distant veterinary practice.
Thanks to all of you, I appreciate the kindness you have shown to me and to my lovely dog. I understand my dog is now responding well to the treatment he’s getting.
