Ralph, the original wild woofy.
A few months short of sixteen years ago we bought a scrappy, hairy, tiny puppy from a pet shop in Shelly Beach. Our children were so determined to have this little dog that they went to the most embarrasing ends of prostrating themselves on the floor of the centre, weeping and begging until the man of the house could bear it no longer and the aquisition of Ralph, the original Wild Woofy, took place.
As you can see in the photo above, Ralph, who has numerous aliases, is quite a looker for an old dog and his indomitable spirit married to the mind set that he is the size of a boerbul, keeps him mobile and feisty.
Of course Ralphie did not reman the children's dog for long as he found his tiny body squeezing into my jacket pockets on cold days, and developing a need to be a momma's boy. My pockets are too small now, but we remain inseparable.
Over the years he has kept people amused with his many and varied mischievous tactics, one of which was chasing lifeguards on Ramsgate beach. These life guards liked the unusual attention and never tried to drown him or meter out any other dubious form of punishment; what's with life guards allegedly trying to drown small dogs in KZN? Not good form is it? Let's hear from you about this.
Till tomorrow, take care of your cats, dog, budgies.......(sorry I don't have any affection for snakes - just saying..)
