  DILLY - LITTLE BARRISTER

26.07.1995 - 17.02.2010

Dilly aka Little Barrister, our little girl so aptly named as she was indeed a 'law unto herself'.

Dilly came to join us in January 2008 having been found beside her owner who had died over the Christmas period of 2007.

Dilly was under the impression that she was the same size as a Rottweiler when in fact she was one of the smallest greyhounds around. She had the most amazing spirit and indeed kept our gang in order and they had a great deal of respect for her.

She taught them to sing when the telephone rung thus you couldn't hear the person on the other end, indeed this legacy is now with us forever and as irritating as it is we will always think of Dilly when the phone rings.

Dilly just got old, she wasn't ill, in fact in the 2 years and 1 month we had her she was never poorly and at nearly 15 would have been fine if her body hadn't worn out.

She leaves us at a time when we are trying to let folk know the delight of owning an 'oldie' even if it is for a very short time. We loved her so much for the couple of years she was with us and are so grateful that we could make her last years comfortable and fun.

Once again there is a sadness in our house as we come to terms with the loss of another of our gang.
