Book description
When Della found a stray dog living wild with her thirteen puppies on
a beach in Rhodes she was determined not to get involved.
But fate had other ideas and Della brought Lindy back to England.
Lindy had already proved herself to be a true survivor, but she was
more of a survivor than Della had ever dreamed. Over the next eight
years she survived a series of events, any one of which might have
finished off a lesser dog than Lindy. They included: being stampeded
by a herd of angry cows; a rare life threatening form of anaemia;
being swept down the river after chasing ducks; falling out of a car
travelling at speed, and getting lost for a night in a forest.
The Dog with Nine Lives is both poignant and humorous. Dog lovers
will love it. It is the true story of a very special dog.
Della Galton is a professional writer and has had
hundreds of short stories published in women's magazines. She teaches
Creative Writing and is a frequent speaker at writers' conferences and
events. Della lives in a four hundred year old cottage in Dorset with
her husband and four dogs.
