The inspiration for the "Dogs in the U-boat War" page, my basset hound Shana. For reasons that will never be understood, she was thrown out of a car and abandoned by her first owners. She was fortunate to be rescued by the caring people of Basset Rescue of Old Dominion (BROOD). To learn all about Bassets and Basset Hound Rescue visit http://www.dailydrool.com/ |
