I went to see him today at JZB's house. He's absolutely adorable and very affectionate - and terribly injured. He's due at SAGA tomorrow morning (so long as Joanne can coax him out of his place of security under her house) so we'll see what Heather says. He looked to me largely but not wholly Alsatian, and although his injuries are horrible (one festering wound leaves his skull exposed) hopefully with lots of TLC he will make a full recovery. What sort of people can treat a dog as an Aunt Sally?

One thing's sure - he won't want for a loving home. There'll be a queue of people wanting to take him home after he's mended - I know I'll be well up near the head of it.
