The Muffin Dog - My Best Friend

by David
(Johannesburg, South Africa)

She was supposed to be a miniature Doberman, but as she grew we could see there was no way Muffin would ever be a Doberman. She was named after a lady golfer - Muffin Spencer Devlin.

Muffin was a terrier cross, with lots of energy, and she was intelligent and loving. Also a brave little soul - once attacked a young German Shepherd three times her size when he wandered up our driveway.

Muffin spent twenty years with us. During that time I lost both my parents, got married and had a beautiful daughter of my own. Muffin took all this in her stride.

I miss you, Muffy, old girl! Thanks for all the great times!
