The little dog called Snowy!

Fantu loves dogs...or kittens, chickens or even pigglets for that matter. Anything small and cute is adorable to her..even the stinking pigglets. Growing up, there lived a punjabi family next to us. The old couple had college going kids. They had a small, energy ball - a pomerian, of the likeness of boo or buddy of today's generation called, Snowy. Snowy could often be spotted teethered to the gate watching kids play on the street and jumping up and down, anytime a ball hit their garden. Basically, snowy was desperate for more playtime. sitting behind the rusted, iron gate, he would be gazing at the children; hoping to be petted by someone. Meanwhile, fantu would be sneaking out of study, her sleeves rolled up, knee deep in mud, rescuing a puppy or even a snake! She is a she, by the way and barely 10 years old. She had absolutely no fear, whatsoever. Fantu had been eyeing that Snowy dog for quite a while. Its white, shiny fur, lovable disposition and weepy eyes made him a perfect contender for fantu's affection. She would always pet him on her way back home in the evening. The proof??? Her clothes dipped in white,dog fur. One sunday morning fantu spotted the old couple watering their plants. Quietly, she slid out of her room and asked them ". Uncle... Main snowy ko ghoomane loon, ek din ke liye?" ( can i walk snowy for a day?) the owner was more than pleased to hand over the job, even if for a day.
