of his quotes....

“Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should

relax and get used to the idea.”

Robert A. Heinlein

Heinlein ranks #2 on my list of the top 5 authors of all time.

#1 goes to Sam Clemens...aka...Mark Twain.

My gf was about go to sleep at her shop a few months ago when she heard a loud thud outside her shop followed by pitiful whimpering. A car had hit a dog and had driven it off leaving it to die on the road. As disturbed as she was by the scene, my gf got a neighbour to help her lift the dog and bring it behind her shop. The dog's back was apparently broken and I told her over the phone that he probably should be put to sleep because he would never walk again and would have a terrible quality of life. I was wrong and fortunately she's always been stubborn enough not to listen to me. Over the next days and weeks she patiently nursed 'Chokdee' back to health, feeding him, cleaning him, etc. When he was clearly strong enough I purchased a wheelchair for him from the US, and now he can get about almost the same as a fully able dog. I learned a lot from this experience and gained a new respect for my girlfriend. And fortunately Chokedee has forgiven my rush to judgement. Great little guy...

Full credit to your GF and yourself for giving this dog some hope in life rather than what many people would have done.
