Doggone


Times of India, Page 12 (Hyderabad Edition), May 11th 2010:

Puppy's (alias Canny) "family" has placed this message in the Business section of Times of India today. So as not to mislead the readers, the family has been kind enough to mention Puppy's lineage/breed (Dachshund) and the precise date of birth.

Next they also inform the general public of some other items missing from their home since Canny's demise last year - they have apparently lost one light fixture from the house, someone has turned mute in the family and they have given up on finding good domestic help.

@ suresh
Yup, the dog obviously meant a lot to them..but why the phone numbers??

@ uncanny
Utility? No utility..just some juvenile fun. Imagine going through the papers in the morning and bang, you see this! Too tempting to let it pass without comment. Plus I like their little poem.

Maybe they took the dog out to the studio just in case they need a obituary profile..think the dog's demise had especially effected chinna..enough atleast to get his nickname in the papers!
