“When she was told the dog was too large, she refused to leave without him and got out of the lifeboat. Several days later, the body of a woman clutching a large dog was spotted by crew of the recovery ship, Mackay-Bennet, and dinghies were dispatched. Eyewitness accounts by crew and ship’s log confirm the sighting and recovery, and the body recovered is assumed to be Miss Isham.”
I can easily see my own fate, there.
Oh, I agree! I thought the same thing — I’d NEVER leave my two dogs, both of whom would give their lives for me, especially the Shih-Tzu, small, strong and brave. The rescue dog pit bull/police dog too — protects the house, us and sleeps at the foot of the bed guarding over us (Shuh-Tzu at the other end near DH).
How could I abandon them?
