The day arrived when my sister was going to see her new dog.
She wanted a Jack Russell.
A neighbour told us of a kennel near her friend which had Jack Russell and Patter-dale cross puppies, ready now for a new home.
We agreed to go and see them, Margaret was so excited.
When we arrived at the kennels we were taken to the puppies.
There were five all black and white, at once one rushed towards us and would not leave my sister alone.
It was a female dog and kept rolling onto her back for a tummy rub.
She was almost laughing, releasing little whimpers of delight.
My sister was totally wrapped up with the little one. I want this puppy, she said hugging the dog in her arms, she loves me.
There was no doubt about it, they were made for each other and were keen to start their lives together.
So the process of having a dog and all the things it would need to establish it’s place in our household began.
The name was no problem, it would be Tega Malay - for three, as she was the third dog in the litter.
Tega very quickly wriggled her way into our lives for good.
