Rusty, a Lhasa Apso.
He was the best dog I ever had -
When he died my family was so sad.
Because he had to be put to sleep,
My children did not speak to me for weeks.
It was on Blue Peter that I first saw
These little “Lion dogs” from afar.
It was years and years ago, I wished
I could afford one, then I saw one advertised.
I phoned the lady, she said: “come and see”.
We were so excited, my children and me.
That we would buy was not in doubt,
His heritage. she told us about.
That tiny, furry scrap we held in our hands
from the cold and mountainous Nepal’s far off lands.
