A little heartwarming shaggy dog story to warm the cockles of your heart this windy Wednesday.
One of our caring Year 11 boys, 16 year old Winston Shaw, found a small Lhasa Apso dog wandering along the extremely busy main bus route Plashet Road on his way to school this morning. The dog looked scared and fearing for it’s safety the quick thinking lad decides to scoop it up and bring it to school for its own safety.
Once at school he handed the shaking dog over to dog-lover Mrs Skelton who contacted a local vets, Goddards in Stratford and they told her to fetch the dog in to be scanned. Once there, staff were pleased to discover the lucky dog was microchipped and they were able to contact the owner who hadn’t even realised the dog had somehow escaped. She was extremely grateful and very emotional when she realised what had happened.
The little dog’s name was discovered to be Alvin and he recovered well after his scary ordeal and was non the worse after his escape.
This proves not only Superheroes wear capes, thanks to Winston and Mrs Skelton’s kindness.
