Memories of A Stray Dog

 

Memories

 

I am often reminded of this cute little black & white stray whenever I see another one of the same kind on the street. She used to frequent our place daily and it had become her shelter most of the days& night and rainy season.

She had such an angelic face and whenever she used to see anyone of us she would come wagging her tail towards us to pet her and would walk inside the gate with us.

My affection for her grew when in particular she accompanied in twice or thrice when I stepped out for some groceries / personal work nearby and though I tried to shoo her away fearing other dogs might attack her, she did not budge and kept following me. I tried hiding so that she would go away but she used to wait knowing that I was there and will come out. She would sit and wait outside till I finished and then followed me back and left me home safely and would go away.

Now its been more than 2 months and I have not seen her. I fear she is no more and it saddens me that I will not be able to pet her again or see her come running with joy when she sees me. I just hope she passed away peacefully. May God bless her soul.
