Özet:
The touching true story of an indefatigably loyal dog While James Percy FitzPatrick was working as a transport rider in South Africa, 1 of his companion dogs-a well-bred Staffordshire Bull Terrier-had a litter of 6 puppies. All of the newborn terriers were perfect, healthy specimens-except for the runt, "a poor, miserable little rat of a thing about half the size of the others." This sickly pup caught FitzPatrick's attention and unexpectedly grew up to become a paragon of loyalty and bravery, serving as the author's canine companion for many years to come. Jock of the Bushveld is a must-read for any dog lover. This ebook has been professionally proofread to ensure accuracy and readability on all devices.
