[Dailydrool] Rolph's gotcha day

[Sally King]

He's handsome, charming, funny and furry. And today is Rolph's fifth gotcha day.
 
It's hard to explain what this naughty, challenging but loveable boy has brought to the family - apart from much quicker reation times around food.
 
If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't be a member of the Drool, my local basset hound club, or the national basset hound club. I wouldn't be a contact for Basset Hound Welfare (the rescue group for the UK) and I wouldn't have Clara.
 
I would never have been to a dog show, never camped beside an airport runway in Birmingham to attend a basset weekend and never met a number of people I now consider firm friends.
 
So, to paraphrase, ask not what you can do for a rescue dog, but what he might do for you!
 
I know I'm preaching to the choir on this list, but no dog could be a better example of why you should take home the little dog no one else wants from the pound.
 
Sally, with pw Rolph OEBE and Clara, UK
