    Tomorrow is Benjy's 20th Birthday!!! I picked him up in December in 1988 on a road near an informal settlement.
    He was emaciated and had 2 broken ribs.
    The vet estimated his age at 10 weeks so we gave him my late father's birthday which is tomorrow.
    He is an incredibly plucky and intelligent little dog; has been caught in a snare 3 times and each time sat still and barked until we rescued him.
    He is deaf and nearly blind but still digs up moles and is first in the kitchen when the fridge door opens. How he knows.....??????
    I considered "doing" him up with a bow and special clip etc, but that is just not Benjy.......... this is!!
    Disreputable, irresistable and just ... Benjy!!!
    Happy birthday. my boy!!:D
