A Real Dog-Lover . . . Get it?

This story came to me in email (which means it's fair game for posting) from my friend Rob Rose of Carpenter-Warren Insurance Agency (for all your insurance needs . . .). It appears to have originated at Snopes.com.

I've posted it to my travel blog because the story takes place in England.

True  Story.

In  2003, police in Warwickshire , England, opened a garden shed  and found a whimpering, cowering dog.  The dog had  been locked in the shed and abandoned.  It was dirty and  malnourished, and had quite clearly been  abused.

In  an act of kindness, the police took the dog, which was a  female greyhound, to the Nuneaton Warwickshire Wildlife  Sanctuary, which is run by a man named Geoff Grewcock, and  known as a haven for animals abandoned, orphaned, or otherwise  in need.
